Installation

Follow these steps to install and run the script:

1. Clone the repository

   First, clone the repository to your local machine using git. Open your terminal and run:

   git clone https://github.com/YUSU-Dev/sums-news-categories

2. Navigate to the project directory

   Change your current directory to the project directory:

   cd <project_directory>

   Replace <project_directory> with the name of the directory that was created when you cloned the repository.

3. Create a virtual environment (optional)

   It's recommended to create a virtual environment to isolate the Python and pip packages used by this project. Use the following command to create a new virtual environment:

   python3 -m venv env

   Then, activate the virtual environment:

   • On macOS and Linux:

     source env/bin/activate

   • On Windows:

     .\env\Scripts\activate

4. Install the required packages

   Install the required Python packages using pip:

   pip install -r requirements.txt

5. Run the script

   Finally, you can run the script using the following command:

   python main.py

   The script will prompt you to enter your X-Site-Id. After you enter it, the script will fetch the data and write it into a CSV file named 'data.csv'.
