Pricezilla is one of the best choices for tracking products pricing. :) Product price information is fetched from an external API - Abc Princing, a FICTICIOUS API and Company.

Follow the steps bellow to setup the project.

Setup libraries: mix deps.get mix deps.compile

Create .env file with the keys, (since the keys are fake I'm sharing it here)

export OMEGA_PRICING_API_KEY="RA8R2-LEBJ2-SACI4X-A3J"
export OMEGA_PRICING_API_URL="https://abcpricing.com/"

Load the .env: source .env

Setup database: mix ecto.create mix ecto.migrate

Run the tests mix test

To visualize the price faster it is better to change the config bellow:

lib/pricezilla/price_processor.ex:40
Process.send_after(self(), :refresh, :timer.seconds(2))

and run:

mix run --no-halt
