TicketSwap.com auto buyer bot

Ticketscoop is deprecated and will not be maintained by me in the future. The code will remain available for reference purposes or for future work by other people.

Using the script will currently get you banned from Ticketswap (obviously it is against their terms of service). You can still use the code in the script but you will have to alter the requests to circumvent detection by Ticketswap (I suspect requests from the script are either detected by the timeout used or by some header value in the HTTP request).

This command line tool is used to automatically reserve ticketswap.com tickets

npm install ticketscoop -g

To run the script you should be using NodeJS version 6 or higher.

Before you can use the command you need to sign in to TicketSwap using your browser. Navigate to the ticketswap website and sign in. Once signed in you need to inspect your cookies and retrieve the session value this should be supplied to the --session command line argument.

After you have retrieved your session id you can run the command as follows:

$ ticketscoop start https://ticketswap.com/path/to/event --session <your_session_id>

The following options are available:

Commands:

Options:
  --session, -s  Session ID retrieved from your ticketswap.nl cookie  [required]
