I decided to design a simple web scraper that can guide the user for some information about Housing options in Bay-Area California. Since in bay area student have difficulties to find safe and trustworthy links for housing, I was passionate to introduce some of of those affordable and trustworthy list by scraping through the web pages..............
- used the bundle gem to create the ruby gems for my project.
- created the Git repository and used its links for meta data in gem-spec files.
- updated the ruby version and installed all updated bundle and gems.
- all required dependencies have been added to the gem-spec file.
- installed the atom text editor for writing code's project.
- Installed the License gem.
- Check if Nokogiri is installed for your data scraping.
- initiated the git repo and push changes on the project to the git Repo.
this web scraper app is for getting some data from web regarding the available rental-student housing.
The User can run the program by running house_find via terminal and the code ask for prefer input and user should put choices by typing integer or exit to terminate the app.
the choices will either show the complete detail of the housing options with all information; such as Provider, price_range, location, and the url to guide the user. Or it just shows the specified details.
After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
