try to evaluate free content delivery network (CDN) available on the
internet to offload your server load and push the contents nearer to
your clients...
here is the script that might help you to simply things...
$ cat ngcp.py
#!/bin/env python
from urllib2 import urlopen
import re
html = urlopen('http://ngcp.ph/power_situation.asp').read()
regex = re.compile('.*<td> ?(.+)<\/td>.*')
data = [ regex.match(line).group(1) for line in html.splitlines() if
regex.match(line)]
print data
OUTPUT:
$ ./ngcp.py
['System Capacity (MW)', '9581', '1645', '1240', 'System Peak (MW)',
'6956', '1373', '1270', 'Reserve (MW)*', '2351', '272', '0', 'System
Capacity (MW)', '9581', '9581', '9581', '1663', '1662', '1645',
'1112', '1139', '1240', 'System Peak (MW)', '6580', '6531', '6956',
'1150', '1172', '1373', '1181', '1184', '1270', 'Gross Reserve (MW)',
'3001', '3050', '2625', '513', '490', '272', '0', '0', '0']
