Good luck!\u003c/b\u003e\n\n[![GitHub forks](https://img.shields.io/github/forks/thomasms/glastoselenium)](https://github.com/thomasms/glastoselenium/network)\n[![GitHub stars](https://img.shields.io/github/stars/thomasms/glastoselenium)](https://github.com/thomasms/glastoselenium/stargazers)\n[![GitHub license](https://img.shields.io/github/license/thomasms/glastoselenium)](https://github.com/thomasms/glastoselenium/blob/master/LICENSE)\n[![HitCount](http://hits.dwyl.com/thomasms/glastoselenium.svg)](http://hits.dwyl.com/thomasms/glastoselenium)\n\nA script/package I used to book Glastonbury tickets in 2019 and 2020 using selenium.\n\nIt can refresh quicker than any human, and automatically fills in registration details to avoid any mistakes or delays.\n\nThe below plot shows the reason why. Demand for tickets has gone mad recently, and it is only expected to get worse for future years.\n\n![Figure of sellout times](https://github.com/thomasms/glastoselenium/blob/master/figures/sellout_times.png?raw=true)\n\nThe script usually requires a bit of tunning beforehand, but it works every time (for me anyway).\n\nThe end goal is to have a completely headless bot that can do everything automatically!!! We are not there yet, but hopefully will be soon.\n\nTry:\n```bash\npython3 scripts/glasto2020.py\n```\n\nRequires a webdriver - only tested with chromedriver (http://chromedriver.chromium.org/)\n\nLook in examples and script directories on how to use it.\n\nRun:\n```bash\npython setup.py install\n```\n\nThen set the path to the driver via:\n```bash\nexport CHROMEDRIVER=/path/to/chromedriver\n```\n\nCan use the package as:\n```python\nimport glasto as gl\n...\n```\n\nAlternatively, the first version exists on PyPI and can be installed directly using pip:\n\n```bash\npip install glasto\n```\n\n\n\nSome test sites are being added to the submodule test/sites - https://github.com/thomasms/testsites.\n\nThese mimic a real life web site that needs a lot of refreshing.\n\n\nOne React SPA exists so far. \n\nJust run it locally via npm\n```bash\ncd test/sites\nnpm start\n```\n\nThen test the client script:\n```bash\npython test/testsite1.py\n```\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fthomasms%2Fglastoselenium","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fthomasms%2Fglastoselenium","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fthomasms%2Fglastoselenium/lists"}
