Project Description:

Parsing Video site by Keyword

This project is to create a program that will parse YOUKU.com by Keyword, and extract movies from the first page of output.

Preferred coding will be PHP with WIN GUI.

How it should work.

PUBLIC FORMAT
-------------

Step 1

Open window.

START TEXT

Search for a Movie,TV show, or Music by entering a Keyword.

Example : James Bond

END TEXT

The user should enter a keyword ( Insert %20 between multiple words ).

The program should search the Database ( see blow ) to check if there are any existing records that match.

If an existing record matches then create a new window with radio button choice list.

START TEXT

If one of these results matches your search select the button and press "SHOW" ( "SHOW" will proceed to Step 2 )

If none of the above matches your search select and press "NEW SEARCH"

If no existing record matches > GO TO "NEW SEARCH"

END TEXT

Open new window

START TEXT

We are now searching the internet for you

END TEXT


Background action
-----------------

Program searches YOUKU.com by Keyword.

The search string for YOUKU.com is http://so.youku.com/search_video/q_Your

So if the key word was 'James Bond'

The search to parse would be :http://so.youku.com/search_video/q_James%20Bond

The function should parse the output, and extract the results, by duration, by title, by id

So in this example the longest movie is : 2:03:05

The Title is : James Bond 007

The id is : XNjUyMDYzOTY

This should be presented to the browser as first choice.

Format : Title : James Bond 007 Duration : 2hrs 3mins

The function should then continue to create a list of the remaining extracts in same format ordered by duration ( descending )

This we will call the 'output list' and it will appear on the 'final results' page

The final results page shall be in 2 parts.

The top part should be the 'output list' and have a radio button for the user to select.

The default radio button should be the first result in the list ( longest duration ).

The bottom part of the 'final results' page should have a list of 25 categories ( pre-programmed ).

The user should have the function to select a radio button from each list ( output & categories ) and save the result to mSQL Database.

Save structure : Category;Title;Duration;id

After the save a new window should open

START TEXT

"WOULD YOU NOW LIKE TO VIEW THE MOVIE YOU SELECTED ?"

YES / NO

END TEXT

If yes

Step 2
------

The function should extract the id and create a new page in format :

http://player.youku.com/player.php/sid/XNjUyMDYzOTY=/v.swf

If No

START TEXT

"IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO SEARCH AGAIN ENTER YOUR KEYWORD HERE"

( BOX LINKING TO START SEARCH Step 1 )

END TEXT

Submit a list of keywords.

The program to save all the results extracted.
