craigslist_bot's Introduction

Craigslist_bot

This bot is made to listen monitor traffic from craigslist and notify if it seems new listing, the problem i was trying to solve was how do i get the best deals, using a 'first come first serve' basis, thus I created this little python bot.

The way this bot works is for each specific interval it will check wethere there are any new entires that are different from the current exisiting recognized entries.

This bot also features random throttling of https request so we do not get blocked.

this bot also features notfication through an email and through text message.
