When I try to create an ad with pictures I get a TypeError. Without pictures everything works properly. Do the pictures have to be in a specific directory? Thanks.

I recently did a fresh installation on Windows 10 and also on a Raspberry Pi

For both installations, I had an error on the first execution. (error: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pgeocode')

pi@raspberrypi:~/Kijiji-Reposter $ python server.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/pi/Kijiji-Reposter/server.py", line 5, in <module>
    import pgeocode
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pgeocode'
pi@raspberrypi:~/Kijiji-Reposter $

I resolve the issue by installation the package 'pgeocode' with the following command:
pip3 install pgeocode

I think the pgeocode package should probably be added in requirements.txt.

For some listings, the application attempts to repost them, and it successfully does so (it even gets the new listing id from the server) but after a few seconds, it is taken down from kijiji.

It only happens with some listings, under the same account. It is very difficult to tell what is going on because again, the listing does get posted successfully for a couple of seconds. Right now failing under the category 15, but category 760 seems to be working fine.

Does anybody know what could be causing this issue? As far as the application is concerned, the listing gets reposted succesfully so its very difficult to debug.

So the ad posts perfectly fine and includes the postal code, But when you open the ad and click on the postal code that is there it directs you to the middle of the ocean.

Manually updating the postal code corrects the issue and i see that it includes the and province as well, not sure if some extra validation needs to take place

Hello,

This looks great for reposting Kijiji ads but I am getting an error when trying to add a new add/post.

I am running this on a windows server in an Anaconda Python 3.7 environment with the required dependencies.

The error is:

TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not subscriptable

This is an awesome project! Would love to see something thats runnable via script instead of having to bring up the entire server.

E.g reposting an ad by python3 repost my_ad.yml. The content of my_ad.yml could be just be all the attributes that get submit when using kijijis website (can post the ad once manually, look at the network console, and copy everything over). If all of that is converted into your submitFunction that would be really slick.

Another approach would be to document what the payload of the submitFunction should look like so people can create their own custom ads to pass to it. However, since different ads have different attributes it would be hard to cover all the bases

I tried to install Kijiji-Reposter on a Raspberry Pi.

I get the following error when I start the program:

I suppose that the Raspberry Pi was probably not a 'target device'. I just want to report the problem in case a simple/quick fix exists...
It is probably related to processor architecture (32 bits versus 64 bits).

Hi,

I want to convert all the data coming from XML and JSON files data into MongoDB. I think that will more efficient to handle data. Do you have any idea how I am gonna start with this one??

The debugger caught an exception in your WSGI application. You can now look at the traceback which led to the error.
To switch between the interactive traceback and the plaintext one, you can click on the "Traceback" headline. From the text traceback you can also create a paste of it. For code execution mouse-over the frame you want to debug and click on the console icon on the right side.

You can execute arbitrary Python code in the stack frames and there are some extra helpers available for introspection:

dump() shows all variables in the frame
dump(obj) dumps all that's known about the object

I tried to install Kijiji-Reposter on Windows 10 (64 bits)

I get the following error when I post my first add.

urllib.error.URLError
urllib.error.URLError: <urlopen error [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: certificate has expired (_ssl.c:997)>

For now, as a quick ugly fix, I added the following two lines in the server.py

At line 19:
import ssl

At line 27 (just after app.secret_key):
ssl._create_default_https_context = ssl._create_unverified_context

I'm not sure how to resolve this issue to correctly use SSL with Windows 10.
Any suggestions ?

I attempted to post a new ad from the /post page after logging into the web interface, but this fails and Flask dumps the stack trace.

The problem is after during the call to submitFunction, the Kijiji site returns an API error message: "Cannot unmarshal content" with HTTP status code 400.

Any chance of having this available in a docker container?

When posting a new ad, choosing certain geographic locations fails to post the ad.

This seems to happen because some locations are nested up to 4 levels deep (Country > Province > Metro Area > City) and others are just 3 levels deep (Country > Province > City). For example, nested under the "Ottawa / Gatineau Area" location are "Gatineau" and "Ottawa" locations.

The UI doesn't let you select the the most nested location (e.g. just "Ottawa" won't be an option), and when it attempts to submit the new ad to Kijiji, it rejects it and the API error message says that you must select a location. It would appear that it wants the most nested location IDs and not an ID further up. For example, if you attempt to post an ad to the "Ottawa / Gatineau Area" location, it will fail.

I was writing my API and playing around with it when I noticed that login through mobile API no longer works. I tried this function using this repo and the same error happened. It said 'Sorry, your username or password is incorrect. Please try again.'. I tried logging in through Kijiji manually with the same creds and it worked just fine (not mobile, website instead). It's possible this is only on my end but give it a shot with your creds and see if the same error message occurs. On a side note, my token was invalidated which is why I tried to do this and it failed. Also if you know the endpoint for checking token validity please let me know what it is.

Ad posted fine, but reposting at 8:00 AM and 5:00 PM both missed by the app. Any particular fix?

Would you be willing to accept a push to include functions for automatically scraping and filtering listings from Kijiji and notifying end user of new listings which pass the filter? You can see this more in-depth in my project if you want. I'll rewrite the code to Python and I think it'd be a cool idea to have this tool that can do all these useful features.

I'm getting this error when trying to post an ad in the Real Estate > Real Estate Services, as well as other locations under Services page.

When posting an ad an error is received if the title is greater than Kijiji's max length. There is a minimum of 8 characters, and a maximum of 64.

Category: Services -> Tutoring

I cannot add any tags to my listing using the Post page.

Tags are crucial to pop up in the Kijiji search! Also, a one repost button would be helpful too!

urllib.error.URLError: <urlopen error [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: unable to get local issuer certificate (_ssl.c:997)>

I get that error every time I try to make a post

Upon posting the ad I get a TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not subscriptable. In the terminal I see this message:

OrderedDict([('api-base-error', OrderedDict([('@xmlns', 'http://www.ebayclassifiedsgroup.com/schema/types/v1'), ('@http-status-code', '400'), ('api-errors', OrderedDict([('api-error', OrderedDict([('message', 'One of your images is not on an accepted service.

Any reason why such an error?

If you make a mistake on an ad it's super annoying because you have to re-create the whole ad. Add an edit button to edit an ad?
