veikals.banknote.lv scraper

Development environment

Docker-based

To refresh inventory, run download-products.py: docker-compose up downloader

To run a local web server at http://127.0.0.1:3000: docker-compose up web

venv-based

To create venv: python3 -m venv .venv && .venv/bin/pip install -r requirements.txt

To refresh inventory: .venv/bin/python3 download-products.py

DevContainer-based

.devcontainer/devcontainer.json contains a postCreateCommand that will attempt to download and unpack database archive from production instance to avoid doing a full scrape.

To run HTTPd in DevContainer: python -m http.server 8080

The easiest way to create a development environment is to use GitHub Codespaces.
