El Corte Ingles Scraper

Scrapes products from ElCorteIngles.es, Spain's iconic department store chain and the largest department store group in Europe. Everything from fashion and electronics to gourmet food and furniture.

How it works

The scraper navigates listing pages (search results, category pages), collects product links, then visits each product page for detailed data. It parses HTML selectors specific to El Corte Ingles' frontend (.product_detail-* classes, data-test attributes) and extracts specs from table rows.

Notes

• Spanish-language content
• Product URLs typically end with a numeric ID followed by p (e.g. /1234567p)
• El Corte Ingles uses .product_detail-brand, .product_detail-price .current selectors
• Breadcrumbs skip "Inicio" (home) when building category paths
