Requirements

For the script to work you'll have to :

  • activate the dev mode on the desired discord account that will send the notifications
  • get the discord token id of the notifier account and write it in the scraper.py file as the TOKEN global variable
  • get the discord channel id (can be a server channel or a dm channel) and write it in the scraper.py file as the CHANNEL_ID global variable

Good to know

  • ads already encountered will be stored in a pickle file
  • the time between 2 webpage scraps (--timer) should not be set to 1 for it causes an IP timeout by kijiji
