I need to scrape a Chinese website. (I guess there is no difference between scraping a Chinese website and a normal one?)
It's my suppliers weblink. They have have told me to download images and text from their website profile link off 1688.com.
There is an API - but from what I've read, it's pants + my virus checked doesn't allow me to visit the API doc page.
What tool should I use?
I've got lots of experience coding - but master of none. Maybe I still fall into the newbie category. LOL.
I saw a link from an article... they gave these names:
Goutte
Simple HTML DOM
htmlSQL
cURL
Requests
HTTPful
Buzz
Guzzle
Which should I consider?
IMPORTANT: I need to download and then upload into my Woocommerce website.
I need images + variation details. I'll have a little file with translations, so if XYZ is found in Chinese, then it is replaced with this.
I thought I would mention the extra detail incase it was relevant to considering which scraping tool to pick.
Thanks!
