SE::Bing::Video - Bing Video scraper

Bing Images

Scraper Overview

The Bing Video Search scraper. With the SE::Bing::VideoSE::Bing::Video scraper, you can collect databases of video links. You can use queries in the same way you enter them in the Bing search bar.

A-Parser functionality allows you to save scraper settings SE::Bing::VideoSE::Bing::Video for future use (presets), set a scraping schedule, and much more. You can use automatic query multiplication, substitution of subqueries from files, permutation of alphanumeric combinations, and lists to obtain the maximum possible number of results.

Saving results is possible in the form and structure you need, thanks to the built-in powerful templating engine Template Toolkit which allows you to apply additional logic to the results and output data in various formats, including JSON, SQL, and CSV.

Collected Data

  • Video links
  • Title
  • The name of the service where the video is located
  • Duration, number of views, and publication date
  • Links to video previews
Collected data

Capabilities

  • Choice of the number of search results pages
  • Choice of location

Use Cases

  • Collecting videos for filling your blogs, tubes, doorways...
  • Collecting textual data

Queries

As queries, you need to specify search phrases, for example:

Cats
Football
Waterfall
Speak in english
cars

Query Substitutions

You can use built-in macros for query multiplication, for example, we want to get a very large database of forums, let's specify several main queries in different languages:

forum
форум
foro
论坛

In the query format, we will specify a permutation of characters from a to zzzz, this method allows to maximally rotate the search results and get many new unique results:

$query {az:a:zzzz}

This macro will create 475254 additional queries for each original search query, which in total will give 4 x 475254 = 1901016 search queries, an impressive figure, but this is not a problem for A-Parser. At a speed of 2000 queries per minute, such a task will be processed in just 16 hours.

Output Results Examples

A-Parser supports flexible formatting of results thanks to the built-in templating engine Template Toolkit, which allows it to output results in any form, as well as in structured ones, such as CSV or JSON

Default Output

Result format:

$serp.format('$link\n')
