Hello fellow self-hosters! I am looking for an app/tool/macro/etc that can screen-scrape or API ping various merchants to track prices on specific products. Think camelcamelcamel but for any merchant. I have to believe such a tool exists and I’m not the first person to think of it.
In an ideal world, I’d like it to be able to dump the data into a spreadsheet so that I can track/graph it. But that’s not a requirement.
Does such a tool exist?
Thanks!
There is a Firefox adding that can load a page amd extract a div, and track it over time. But the browser needs to be open. It is called PageProbe
I used it to track the price of an item, looking for a sale.
edit - updated the name and added link
