Ticket Tracker by Gabe Bider

This program will use the Twilio API to text TO_NUMBER whenever the lowest price of a given event changes, whether it increases or decreases. It can run indeifitely or for a certain number of iterations. It will also text TO_NUMBER when the maximum nunber of iterations is reached or if the program fails to fetch self.url.

TODO:

Update FROM_NUMBER to be your number from the Twilio SMS API and update TO_NUMBER to be the number you wish to notify.

Ensure you have files named account_sid.txt and auth_token.txt in the same directory as tracker.py with the only your Twilio account SID and Twilio auth token. Alternatively, you could update the code to read in the respective environment variables with the os library.

Finally, simply call create a <StubHub | SeatGeek>Tracker object and call <StubHub | SeatGeek>Tracker.trackPrice(). The program defaults to checking the price once a second and running indefinitely. You can also pass in a given delay, the time between each check, and/or a given number of iterations, iter.
