The retailer being used to provide price comparison data is: http://www.jomashop.com/

This crawler uses Scrapy and uses Splash to render javascript on the given page. Follow the guides below to set them up in your local environment.

Splash runs in a docker container, see here for installation guide: Docker

For production or large scale crawling multiple splash servers will needed, the cookiecutter template aquarium comes in very handy for this.

Aquarium is a cookiecuter template for hassle-free `Docker Compose`_ + Splash setup. Think of it as a Splash instance with extra features and without common pitfalls.
