This project is a crawler that scrapes and sanitizes web development agencies from clutch.co.

• PDO Extension
• PDO Sqlite
• PHP 7.1 (tested with PHP 7.2)

First, install dependencies and initialize the database with:

composer install
cat schema.sql | sqlite3 agencies.sqlite

php clutch.php --list --metadata --csv=uk.csv --country="United Kingdom"

1 - Populate the local database with a list of agencies:

php clutch.php --list --country="United Kingdom"

2 - Fetch the metadata of the agencies

php clutch.php --metadata --country="United Kingdom"

3 - Export the database to CSV (has to be populated first)

php clutch.php --csv=agencies.csv --country="United Kingdom"

# Export to CSV
--csv="uk.csv"
# Offset page list (requires --list)
--offset=5 
# Disable cache (re-fetch agency metadata)
--no-cache

• Retry unsuccessful operations
• Implement (configurable) timeouts
