May 5: Chanel No. 5, One Month Graph Challenge
Welcome word
In this series of small posts I do one simple graph daily. Domain model of graph somehow related to day’s history, some historical event, celebration or person. I do this challenge to learn Neo4j Data Modeling and Cypher. Every day. One month. Follow me. Maybe you will be inspired and next month would be yours One Month Graph Challenge. #OMGChallenge
Domain model
I still thinking about Star Wars, but already need to switch to next topic. I found interesting, that in Paris, at fifth of May 1921 world-famous couturie Gabrielle “Coco” Chanel launched her first perfume. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, it was her bestseller CHANEL №5. I think, one of the top known perfume in the world. Today I plan to build a super small graph about perfume: Brand and Products.
Graph
I discover few online perfume shops and stop on one of them. My main criterias used to pick website are: simple routing and easy to parse.
We need some brand. Let’s grab them first:
Now, let’s add some products:
Only brands starts from “4”, “I” or “O”. Just change letters to grab more products. Grab all in once is really too long process to call.
Resume
HTML parsing is not easy to use. I faced problem with multi nodes parsing. Should work on this area more. For this particular graph is good to have prices in products and also Gender (Man/Woman/Unisex).
