Build article content from an EAN code
Context
A merchant wants to create an ecommerce site but only has the EAN codes of his products and a brief description for information. We suggest that it retrieve as much information as possible on the web from EAN codes, in particular long descriptive content, product characteristics and their photos.
The recovered content will be cleaned of various abbreviations and information deemed unnecessary.
For the images, a treatment will make it possible to put them to the same dimension.
For this initial mission, the restitution must be in the form of an Excel file which will be imported into the Prestashop CMS.
The merchant is now considering automating the process. With each new product, the EAN code is sent to the platform which sends the content and image to the Prestashop CMS.
