Pull Bloomberg news and stick it into an API

Primary LanguageJavaScript

Bloomberg Scraper

This app grabs articles from Bloomberg and posts them on to an API. You will need a Bloomberg account to use it.

It doesn't stay resident, so I suggest putting it into a cron. It can take a while to go through all the articles, so I suggest a cron time of around 5 mins to be safe.

Installing

npm i

Setup

Create a .env file with the following in it:

TOKEN=<Your Bloomberg token>
URL=https://api.bloomberg.com/syndication/stage/portal/adapter/v1/api/v1/articles?&size=30
ARTICLE_URL=https://api.bloomberg.com/syndication/stage/portal/adapter/v1/api/v1/articles/
API_USERNAME=<your RESTful API username>
API_PASSWORD=<your RESTful API password>
API_ENDPOINT=<url to the API's endpoint to store the articles>
PROVIDER=Bloomberg

Running

npm start
