Paid on delivery
(Add more description...) I want a bot to search craigslist (the US cities, or all of them), the bot will search through jobs and gigs section for a keyword I specify in my admin. Then the bot is to copy the title, the url of the results, and the email with the post into a database. I want to be able to see posts that have been posted in the last 48 hours. After that it can purge the database. The script is to autorun every morning at 3am. No password/logins necessary (I will just password protect the entire directory/subdomain it will run on). Don't want this bot to get blocked from craigslist, so it should only run once a day. To add new cities to the list it searches, we should be able to enter the city into a form in the admin section. The output should be simple. this is to be done very soon. ## Deliverables 1) Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done. 2) Deliverables must be in ready-to-run condition, as follows (depending on the nature of the deliverables): a) For web sites or other server-side deliverables intended to only ever exist in one place in the Buyer's environment--Deliverables must be installed by the Seller in ready-to-run condition in the Buyer's environment. b) For all others including desktop software or software the buyer intends to distribute: A software installation package that will install the software in ready-to-run condition on the platform(s) specified in this bid request. 3) All deliverables will be considered "work made for hire" under U.S. Copyright law. Buyer will receive exclusive and complete copyrights to all work purchased. (No GPL, GNU, 3rd party components, etc. unless all copyright ramifications are explained AND AGREED TO by the buyer on the site per the coder's Seller Legal Agreement). ## Platform php, mysql, maybe cakephp?
