smarty-selenium-telegram-bot

Capturing screenshots with selenium and sending results to telegram

This project consists of:

• A python tornado webserver, that runs the different selenium jobs on a call to '/'
• A kubernetes cronjob worker configuration to call the tornado service.

Setup:

• Build the docker image

• Run with -port and set the env variables

• Curl localhost:port and check your telegram chat for results!

• If running in kubernetes, see cronjob deploy for example of using a cronjob worker to fire the jobs

docker build . -t smarty:v0.5 
docker run -p 8887:8888 -e TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN="your-token" -e TELEGRAM_CHAT_ID="your chat id" smarty:v0.5
curl localhost:8887

Note: TELEGRAM_CHAT_ID is your chat id with your configured telegram bot. You can get it by running the telegram_bot script, starting a chat with your bot and sending '/start' to it. The chat id will be printed to console. See: telegram_bot.py script or Telegram bot intro

Adding your own fetchers

• Create your selenium fetchers, see google_fetcher.py for example
• Add use of that fetchers by modifying the dict at handler.py

Other notes:

This is an initial stage project, still fails sometimes etc. Overall works surprisingly well :)
