A basic Python script that will scrape e-commerce websites powered by Shopify and periodically check for a product restock and update the user through SMS using the Twilio API or automatically attempt to purchase the item(s) being watched the moment they become available.

• Make sure /products.json is accessible
• Enter Twilio API credentials in an .env file for SMS notifications

Shopify checkout test cases:

• Declined message - 4000000000000002
• Incorrect number - 4242424242424241
• Disputed transaction - 4000000000000259
• Invalid Expiry Month - 12 < XX
• Invalid Expiry Year - past year
• Invalid CVV - any 2 digits

1. Clone the repo

$ git clone https://github.com/kareemelgendy/restock-bot.git

2. Create and activate virtual environment

   Install virtualenv: sudo pip install virtualenv if needed

$ cd restock-bot
$ virtualenv env
$ source env/bin/activate

3. Create an .env file for the Twilio SMS API keys (if using SMS)

$ touch .env
$ source .env

4. Install the required modules

$ pip install -r requirements.txt

5. Enter profiles (if any) in data/profiles.json and products in data/products.json
   • Profiles are only used for product checkout if opted for

Example Profile:

"John Doe": {
	"First Name": "John",
	"Last Name": "Doe",
	"Email": "[email protected]",
	"Address": "23 Jump St.",
	"Address 2 (optional)": "",
	"City": "Toronto",
	"Province": "Ontario",
	"Country": "Canada",
	"Postal Code": "M5V 3L9",
	"Phone Number": "6471231234",
	"Payment": {
      "Card Number": "123456789012",
		"Name": "John Doe",
		"Expiry Date (MM/YY)": "12/34",
		"CVV": "123"
	}
}

Example Product:

• If an item has multiple sizes and/or colours fill accordingly, otherwise keep the fields blank
  • Clothing: size (required), colour (optional)
  • Footwear: size (required), colour (optional)
  • Accessories: size (not applicable), colour (not applicable)
• Fill Phone field if you wish to be notified by SMS
• Fill Profile field with a valid profile if you want to attempt to checkout

**If both Profile and Phone fields are filled, Profile will take precendence

{
	"Product URL": "https://ca.octobersveryown.com/collections/t-shirts/products/ss22-bubble-owl-t-shirt-black",
	"Size": "M",
	"Colour": "",
	"Profile": "John Doe",
	"Phone": ""
}
