If you find any errors or have any suggestions to update the information please let us know or create a pull request on GitHub When doing spidering projects or other bulk catalogue management projects for osCommerce sites, I tend to finish by creating easypopulate format files so that the store owner can do any last minute edits and upload the products manually using the easypopulate system.

icecat
The ICECat database is an invaluable resource for webmasters who have to deal with very large catalogues. They offer a single source with a normalised structure for getting high quality images, descriptions and even PDF files about the products you sell. They have developed relationships with a large number of manufacturers and brands which allow them to offer these details free of charge. If however you want better coverage they also offer a very reasonably priced service which is comparable to the CNET system but at a much reduced price.

If you find any errors or have any suggestions to update the information please let us know or create a pull request on GitHub If you are coding a PHP script to deal with big files, it makes sense to build in some kind of caching logic so that your script won’t download the same file every single time it is run, but will check to see how long ago it last downloaded that file and only download it again if it is more than a certain timeframe old.
