The general process


The basic interface

The program interface is build up from three different parts. These parts are:
1. Data Source (where to extract data)
2. Parsing Rules (what data to extract)
3. Harvested data (the end result of extracted data)

The three different parts should be followed as "steps" in a data extraction project. You begin by telling HappyHarvester (HH) where to look for data; if it should use web pages as a source or if it should use text files. Next you tell HH how it should extract the data you are after. Then you run the data extracting processby pressing the Start Harvesting button. The extracted data is placed in the Harvested Data grid. When the process has finished, you can export the data into a format like Excel and use that for further processing.
