Can I copy products from the online store?

Question

Online shopping

Approximately 40,000 items need to be added to an online grocery store with a title/price/picture and description. There is an excel file with the name and price, but what to do with pictures and descriptions, manually? This is too long, and paying 10 rubles for goods (such prices) is too much. A friend suggested that you can create a parser and thus avoid manual work. Anyone have any suggestions or advice?

Answer 1

Understand how the goods are stored in the database, put the text in the fields, and the pictures on the disk

Answer 2

Yes, if you understand the code, you can write a script that will parse products from the online store catalog. Programs or services are most likely not suitable, since each site has its own nuances.
As for the titles and product descriptions, it will be enough to upload the necessary data from html pages. In the case of images, it will be more difficult, since you will have to correct the relative path to an absolute one and copy it.

Answer 3

In general, of course, the easiest way is to rewrite the data into the site database according to the rules of your cms, but please note that automatically loaded products practically do not move in search engines, as they have a crooked alias, no or disgusting description, at best, randomly placed related products.
If the site is made for yourself, I recommend, no matter how difficult and expensive it would be, to enter the goods manually with attention to all details.
But you can do it this way, for example for joomhopping
