Description

This project uses PRAW to check food subreddits to see when free coupons/rewards have been posted. It will send an alert to a discord server via a discord bot, allowing you to get there first.

I would have used the Twilio API to send an SMS message, but they have strict restrictions now that take forever to get around.

Installation

Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/aaron10l/free-lunch.git
cd free-lunch

Install dependencies:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Usage

Add Environment Variables: You will need reddit API credentials (script) and also discord bot credentials. Add these in a .env file according to the names in the script.

Run the Script:

python bot.py
