Totem Tribe 2 UserDetails Scraping

Overview

This repository contains a Python script (index.py) designed for scraping user details from the Totem Tribe 2 website. The scraped data is then stored in a CSV file (tt2_players.csv). The dataset includes user IDs, account names, and registration dates and times.

Additionally, a self-hosted web application (app.py) is provided to allow users to view specific user details. By accessing localhost:80 in a web browser and entering the account name, users can retrieve detailed information about the user from the scraped dataset. You may also change the host and port within the app.py file.
