A Flask app that fetches and displays internship listings from GitHub README files. The user can filter the listings by company, role, and location. Additionally, users can exclude specific filters (ex. -remote to exclude remote internships) for more refined results.
You can view the original repositories, which the data is collected from, here:
- Fetch Internship Data: Collects internship listings from GitHub Internship README repositories and displays them in a table.
- Filter Listings: Filter internships by company, role, or location. Supports negative filters like -remote to exclude specific entries.
- Clear Filters: Resets applied filters for a fresh search.
- Interactive Web Interface: View detailed internship information, including company, role, location, application link, and date posted.
- Apply Status: Mark internships as applied or not applied, allowing you to track progress.
The project requires the following Python libraries:
- Flask
- requests
- Clone the repo and install the required libraries:
git clone https://github.com/spencerboggs/internships-filter.git
cd internship-listings-filter
pip install -r requirements.txt
- Start the app:
python app.py
The development server will most likely start on http://localhost:5000. If not, check the terminal for the correct URL.
Filtering Results:
- Company Filter: Enter the company name to filter internships by company.
- Role Filter: Enter the role name to filter internships by role.
- Location Filter: Enter the location to filter internships by location.
- Negative Filters: Use
-before a filter term to exclude that term (e.g.,-remoteto exclude remote internships). - Applied Status: Mark internships as applied or not applied, allowing users to track their progress.
- Arrow Replacement Logic: Any internship listing with the company name
\u21b3(the rightwards arrow symbol) is replaced with the last valid company name in the listing. This ensures continuity in the internship data display.
