# Flipkart Price Tracker with RSS
There are some nice open source trackers available for Price Tracking Flipkart products, none of them generated an
RSS Feed.
## Output
Atom-formatted web feed with product's price, image URL and title.
## Inspiration
https://github.com/captn3m0/ideas#-amazon-price-tracker-with-rss
_It would be great if a similar bridge for Flipkart is added and hosted for free somewhere!._ Till then, use a script
similar to the one added below for starting your RSS feed reader. For `newsboat`, it would be like:
```
newsboat() {
echo "Initializing background process"
/home/ritik/proj/flipkart_scraper/main.py > /dev/null 2>&1 &
sleep 1
command newsboat "$@"
echo "Exiting"
kill $!
}
```
in your rc file.
The feed url will be of the form, `http://localhost:12564/flipkart?link=`
_Add extra param for adding constant data to feed_. Example:
`http://localhost:12564/flipkart?link=?my_price=1000`
This wont do anything other than returning it with the feed. It can be used as a note! :p
