We are looking for an experienced web scraping developer to build a robust and scalable scraping system for extracting product data from G2A and integrating it into our Laravel-based platform. We already have an integration with the G2A API. However, some critical data is NOT available or NOT accurate via the API, which is why scraping is required. --- Project Scope: * Scrape and process data for 240,000+ products * Integrate scraping output with an existing Laravel backend * Ensure data consistency and correct mapping with existing API data --- Important Clarification (API vs Scraping): * We already receive the following from G2A API: * Product ID (same as G2A) * Slug (same as G2A) * Price, currency * Images * Platform, region * System requirements * However: * Categories from the API are NOT accurate and do not match G2A website structure * Some important content (description sections, alert boxes, activation guides) is NOT available via API Therefore, scraping is required to: * Rebuild the correct categories structure exactly as on G2A * Extract missing product content All scraped data must be correctly matched with API data using the same product ID and slug. --- Core Requirements: 1. Categories Mapping (Very Important) * Extract the full categories structure exactly as on G2A website * Include main categories, subcategories, and full hierarchy * Replace API categories completely * Each product must be mapped accurately to its category path 2. Product Data Extraction * Basic product information * Full product description (HTML) * Yellow alert / warning box under “About this item” (must be extracted بالكامل with formatting) * Activation guide (especially for software products) 3. Data Alignment * Must correctly match scraped data with API data (using product ID and slug) * No duplicates or mismatched records --- Technical Requirements: * Python (preferred with FastAPI or similar) * Experience with headless browsers (Playwright / Selenium / Puppeteer) * Ability to handle dynamic content and anti-bot protections * Experience with scalable scraping (parallel workers, batching, queues) * Strong error handling, retry logic, and logging --- Infrastructure: * Scraper will run on a dedicated VPS (8 CPU / 32GB RAM) * Must support parallel execution * Must not affect the main Laravel application --- Milestones: 1. Initial Test (Mandatory) * Scrape 50 varied products (games, software, gift cards) * Display results on the live website * Validate: * Data accuracy * Categories mapping (must match G2A exactly) * Alert box extraction * Activation guide 2. Scaling Phase * Gradual scaling after validation * Full scraping of 240K+ products --- Payment Terms: * No upfront payment without results * Payment after successful delivery of the initial test (50 products) * Further payments based on validated milestones --- To Apply: Please include: * Examples of similar scraping projects (especially large-scale) * Technologies used * Your approach for handling this project (short explanation) --- We are looking for someone who can deliver real, scalable results — not partial implementations.

Youssef, Full-Time Python Developer, expert in large-scale data extraction and API integration. I note the critical need to rebuild G2A's exact category hierarchy and extract missing content like alert boxes, which the API lacks. My approach uses Playwright for reliable, headless browsing to handle dynamic content and anti-bot measures, ensuring accurate data alignment with your existing API records using the product ID and slug. I have completed similar large-scale, high-accuracy scraping and integration projects. What is the preferred method for delivering the initial 50-product test data set for your Laravel platform? Ready to start immediately.

My vast experience in the field of web development, particularly a long-established proficiency in projects demanding comprehensive data scraping, makes me your best choice for this project. Having dealt with large-scale scraping operations before and resoundingly meeting clients' expectations, I can guarantee top-notch workmanship. My technical competences in Python, as well as utilizing FastAPI, ensure a review-proof environment and an infrastructural design that separate and effectively scale heavy data operations from your main Laravel application. Handling dynamic content and anti-bot protections? I've got you covered! Equipped with an intuitive repertoire in headless browser technologies such as Playwright, Selenium and Puppeteer, I have frequently championed the spearheading of scraping tasks in the face of anti-scraping protocols. When it comes to reliable categories mapping and skillful product data extraction, my results speak for themselves. To avoid duplicate or mismatched records while integrating scraped data with API data -an area where many developers falter- I not only ensure a 100% match but also double-check every step of the way to guarantee no room for error. My most recent project where I achieved exact products categorizing as per the client's requirement, serves as proof-positive. Given my persistent approach to relentless delivery of solutions that exceed clients' expectations and adaptability to unique project visions, I am confident

Hi, I will build a Python/FastAPI scraper using Playwright to extract G2A categories hierarchy, descriptions, alert boxes, and activation guides — then match everything to your existing API data via product ID and slug. For 240K+ products, I will use a queue-based worker pool on your VPS with adaptive rate limiting and fingerprint rotation to handle G2A's anti-bot measures without triggering blocks. Questions: 1) Does your VPS already have a proxy setup, or should I plan for that? 2) How frequently should scraped data resync after the initial full run? Looking forward to talking through the details. Kamran

SCALABLE PYTHON SCRAPING TO OVERRIDE G2A API LIMITATIONS Your VPS specs are perfect for a distributed Python based crawler. At Plan D Studios, we bring 12+ years of experience in web development and high scale data extraction. We understand that 240k products require more than a simple script; they need a robust queue management system to ensure 100% sync with your Laravel backend. Our Approach: Engine: Using FastAPI and Playwright, we’ll build a multi worker system to bypass anti bot layers and extract those specific HTML "Yellow Alert" boxes and Activation Guides. Mapping: We’ll crawl G2A’s live breadcrumb hierarchy to rebuild a true category structure, using Product IDs to perfectly merge data with your existing API records in MySQL. Validation: We are ready to start with the 50 product test to prove our DOM-parsing accuracy. We handle all API integration in house for maximum data integrity. How often do you need the 240k records to be refreshed once the initial sync is complete? Regards, Haider

Your G2A scraper will fail at scale if you don't handle their Cloudflare protection and session rotation properly. I've seen scrapers that work for 50 products but crash at 10K because they didn't architect for rate limits and IP blocking from the start. Before building this, I need clarity on two things: What's your current proxy infrastructure? G2A will block you after ~500 requests from a single IP. And second - are you running this as a one-time migration or continuous sync? That changes whether we use a queue-based system or scheduled batches. Here's the architectural approach: - PLAYWRIGHT + PYTHON: Headless browser with stealth plugins to bypass Cloudflare. I'll implement rotating user agents and browser fingerprinting to avoid detection patterns that trigger captchas. - FASTAPI + CELERY: Distributed task queue that splits 240K products across parallel workers. Your 8-core VPS can handle 20-30 concurrent scraping sessions without memory leaks if we implement proper connection pooling. - CATEGORY HIERARCHY EXTRACTION: Build a recursive crawler that maps G2A's exact category tree structure, then cross-reference each product's breadcrumb path to ensure accurate classification. This prevents the API mismatch issue you're facing. - MYSQL INTEGRATION: Use Laravel's existing product_id and slug as foreign keys to merge scraped data with API records. I'll implement upsert logic with conflict resolution to handle cases where API data updates during scraping. - ERROR HANDLING: Exponential backoff retry logic for failed requests, dead letter queue for products that fail after 3 attempts, and real-time Slack alerts when error rate exceeds 5%. I've built similar scrapers for 3 e-commerce platforms that processed 500K+ products daily. One handled Walmart's anti-bot system, another scraped Amazon variations at 50K products per hour. Let's schedule a 15-minute call to walk through your current API integration and discuss proxy strategy before I start the 50-product test.
