Automate a website scraper written in C#

Completed Posted 7 years ago Paid on delivery

PLEASE DO NOT COPY AND PASTE A GENERIC MESSAGE, OTHERWISE I WILL NOT CONSIDER THE PROPOSAL.

Outline:

I have a website scraper, it was written in C# and has a UI - I have the source code. It needs to be automated so it runs automatically on set days, with the data automatically output and saved.

Current scraper:

At the moment I need to manually open the software, enter a scraping range and press the button 'Start Scraping' - once the data has been scraped I need to manually save the data.

New version:

It needs to run automatically on set days, and run ranges (explained later). I need a UI that allows me to set the time and day (i.e. Monday, Tuesday, etc.) of the scrapes. I need to be able to set the folder where the data is saved, and a date/timestamp needs to be applied to the output date filename. There are 3 output files from the software.

The bulk of the source code has already been written - I just need to automate the process.

Thank you.
