Project description
PhD-Seeker ๐
PhD Seeker is a python web scraper to search for fully funded doctorate positions, advertised on well-known academic position websites.
If nowadays you are actively seeking a PhD position to pursue your studies, you must have realized that the process of searching for relevant vacancies is not straight forward. Visiting a large number of position advertising websites and encountering irrelevant commercials are two of the most common problems.
Simply modify the keywords and you will receive a CSV/XLSX file containing the last two pages from the most popular advertisers.
Sources ๐
Next Goals ๐ฏ
- Expanding the academic position advertising source
- Adding databases of different universities
- Finding and removing overlapped positions
- Adding LinkedIn search to get informed directly from university professors
- Getting the keywords from command line instead of hard-coding the source
- Fetching pages simultaneously
- Checking the availability of the new updates of
phdseeker
and notifying the user - GUI support
Installation
PyPi
phdseeker is available on PyPi:
$ pip install phdseeker
Git
You can get latest stable changes from github server:
$ git clone https://github.com/Aghababaei/PhD-Seeker.git
$ cd PhD-Seeker
$ python setup.py install
Zip, Tarball
You can download the latest tarball.
*nix
Get the latest tarball & install:
$ wget -O phdseeker-master.tar.gz https://github.com/Aghababaei/PhD-Seeker/archive/master.tar.gz
$ tar xvzf phdseeker-master.tar.gz && cd PhD-Seeker-main
$ python setup.py install
Windows
Downloading Archive
Download latest zip archive.
https://github.com/Aghababaei/PhD-Seeker/archive/master.zip
Decompress it, and run the following command in root directory of PhD-Seeker
$ python setup.py install
Adding Python to Windows environmental variables
Prior to running codes, make sure that Python has been already added to environmental variables as a PATH
, otherwise:
- Right-click This PC and going to Properties.
- Click on the Advanced system settings in the menu on the left.
- Click on the Environment Variables button oโn the bottom right.
- In the System variables section, select the Path variable and click on Edit. The next screen will show all the directories that are currently a part of the PATH variable.
- Click on New and entering Pythonโs install directory.
Requirements
phdseeker is relied on several great python packages. If you want to just run the code by calling the script, you need to install its dependencies, in advance.
pip install -r requirements.txt
Usage
phdseeker
Usage:
phdseeker -h
phdseeker -V
phdseeker [-k <keywords> -c <countries> --maxpage=<n> --output=<filetype(s)> -v]
