Shinobi Jobs Report

This Flask application fetches jobs from various job boards and returns them in JSON format.

Endpoints

• /jobs/load - This endpoint scrapes jobs from Indeed, LinkedIn, Zip Recruiter, Glassdoor, and Google for "Devops" positions in the Miami, Florida area and returns them as JSON.
• /jobs/ - This endpoint returns the most recent jobs data that was fetched.

How to Use

1. Clone this repository.
2. Install the required libraries using pip install -r requirements.txt.
3. Run the application using flask run.
4. To fetch new jobs, make a GET request to /jobs/load.
5. To access the most recent jobs data, make a GET request to /jobs/.

Example Usage

curl http://localhost:5000/jobs/load

This will return a JSON object containing the scraped jobs data.

Explanation of the Code

• The dowork function scrapes jobs from the specified job boards using the jobspy library.
• The writeFile function writes the scraped jobs data to a JSON file.
• The read function reads the most recent jobs data from the JSON file.
• The /jobs/load endpoint calls the dowork function to scrape new jobs and then calls the writeFile function to save the data. It then returns the JSON data.
• The /jobs/ endpoint calls the read function to retrieve the most recent jobs data from the JSON file and returns it.

Additional Notes

• This is a basic example of a Flask application. You can customize it to fit your specific needs.
• The jobspy library is not included in this repository. You will need to install it separately using pip install jobspy.
