Write Bellevue Event Scraper #120

Closed evamaxfield closed 3 years ago

evamaxfield commented 4 years ago

Use Case

Please provide a use case to help us understand your request in context Now that the cost of running the server for Seattle is so low, let's expand and deploy in Bellevue. The first step is to write a scraper for gathering their events.

Solution

Please describe your ideal solution From looking at their services, everything should be available through legistar and so the legistar utils submodule should do most of the work and we may just need a bit of configuration to get it working for Bellevue.

Legistar

Note: we will need to figure out the Bellevue granicus "client-name"

Alternatives

Please describe any alternatives you've considered, even if you've dismissed them

I sent an email to Bellevue's City Clerk requesting the client-name.
