Our company uses a third party website which requires a username and password to manually update inventory. We are looking for a programmer who can take a CSV link that is exported and automatically updated via Google Docs and use it to automatically update inventory onto the third party website.
Here are the steps that a bot must take:
1) Pull the necessary data from this link:
[login to view URL];single=true&gid=15&range=g3%3Aj368&output=csv
This data is arranged to show the remaining availability for three items (male, female, private) along with the amount of inventory left with a corresponding date.
The data derived from a Google Docs spreadsheet that is automatically updated and published every few minutes.
2) The bot must then update data in two places. The first place is through this link: [login to view URL]
The bot must log in with a username & password and then navigate to the correct screen to manually enter in the new inventory figures. You can view a screenshot of the inventory screen online - we have uploaded an attachment called [login to view URL]
3) The second place the bot must update the data is at a second third-party site called Hostelsclub. The Hostelsclub website has an XML feed in which you can send this information. We have uploaded a copy of their XML documentation - the attachment is called [login to view URL]
The bot must be able to do this on command. We can put a small button on our website, and when we click on the button, the bot proceeds with all of the functions and has a status bar that shows its progress.
We encourage you to provide us with any questions. Here is how the escrow payments will break down:
10% - Deposit to start.
10% - Successfully implement the bot to update a Hostelsbookers test site.
10% - Successfully implement the bot to update a Hostelsclub test site.
10% - Successfully create a front-end user interface to implement on website.
10% - Create a back-end interface to define variables (the CSV feed, which fields match up with which, the username/password for the XML feeds)
25% - Test bot is completed. User will experiment with it for 1 week to work out any bugs or errors.
25% - Project is completed. Project is free of any errors and bugs after 1 week.
