This crawler is able to help me crawl the publicly viewable information of a user or a venue in Dazhong Dianping (http://www.dianping.com/aboutus).

We have tested our crawler on Ubuntu (version: 14.04). Please make sure that you have installed Python2.7 and Selenium Webdriver.

Usage:

• Change directory to User_Crawler.

• Run 'bash install.sh' (no sudo please) to set everything ready for user crawler to run.

• Manually fill inputfile.txt with the users you are to crawl, one ID in each line without any formats.

• Run crawler using bash command 'xvfb-run python dianping_u_script.py'.

• When it is done, you can collect your data in 'User_Crawler/Data' folder.

Will be released soon.
