ScalpNotifier

Facebook scalping program built in Python using Selenium and BeautifulSoup for obtaining and parsing through facebook marketplace data, Sqlite3 for a simple database to avoid users recieving notifications about repeating items, and Tornado Web Handler for hosting a GUI created in Bootstrap5 and HTML.

Usage

  1. Run pip install -r requirements.txt from the root of the ScalpNotifier directory
  2. Execute python run.py to start the GUI.
  3. Fill in information (locations and items must be in comma separated list format). Email must be gmail, and the password must be an App-Password however modifications can be made to app.Notification to use a different smtp server.
  4. Hit "run" and a scalping process will be started. It will continue to run at your selected interval until "Kill Process" is selected. All configuration information will be saved to config.ini in order to auto-fill for later uses.

Tips

  • The database can be reset by deleting database.db
  • "False Price Prevention" hasn't been implemented yet
  • Avoid too short of intervals as Google has a daily limit of emails for Apps

Warning

  • Do not run this program on public networks
  • Do not host this program on a public web server
