# GPU BOT



This is a bot to buy GPUs online.



1. Install or update WSL 2

2. Install and create Virtual Environment

3. Install Selenium and Chromedriver



# Cost of Usage

Firstly using bots is against service agreement to website, if they explicitly state that. Check to see if there is an API before attempting any botting of a website.



The estimated Network Data usage per month



Each request to a website (headless) = 1MB



Depending on number of GPUs and Number of Links that this script should be watching: 30 Links



The script should check once every second



30mb per second



86400 seconds in a day



2,592,00mb or 2,592gb or 2.5tb per day



Because of this, using rotating proxies is not cost efficent.



Instead using a VPN is a better idea.



So 30 VPNs to use this script at semi-capacity



Which means 30 virtual machines, 30 headless_alertbot.py running in parallel



## 30 Links to Watch



Why 30 Links, 30 links is not all of the links. 30vpns and 30 virtual machines can be doable. The reasons is because there is no notification on drops or they are too slow. So we need to have our own alert system to watch for stock in real time by the second.



Once there is stock, there can be one script like a sniper_bot scipt that is activated on another system and it goes to that link and because now there is stock, it can click the buy button and finish with checkout.



For example: 3060, 3060TI, 3070, 3080, 3090, but not any of the 6800, 6800XT, 6900, 6900XT

Then which websites that hold stock: Bestbuy.com, Newegg.com, Amazon.com

## Development Environment



(Windows Subsystem for Linux) WSL2 



Ubuntu 20.02



Python 3



Pip 3



VirtualEnv



## Installing WSL2 



Powershell with Admin



Enable Windows Subsystem for Linux 



    dism.exe /online /enable-feature /featurename:Microsoft-Windows-Subsystem-Linux /all /norestart



Enable Virtual Machine feature



    dism.exe /online /enable-feature /featurename:VirtualMachinePlatform /all /norestart



Update Linux Kernel update package



x64 machines



    https://wslstorestorage.blob.core.windows.net/wslblob/wsl_update_x64.msi



Set WSL 2 as default



    wsl --set-default-version 2



## Install Pip3



    sudo apt-get install python3-pip



## Install VirtualEnv



    python3 -m pip install --user virtualenv



## Install ensurepip



Install ensurepip with python3-venv package



    sudo apt-get install python3-venv



## Create Virtual Environement



    python3 -m venv env



##  Activate Virtual Environement



    source env/bin/activate



The environment is active when there is:



    (env) user@device



## Installing Chromedriver in WSL 2



Method uses X server



Installing Chrome



    sudo apt-get update



    sudo apt-get install -y curl unzip xvfb libxi6 libgconf-2-4



Chrome itself:



    wget https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb



    sudo apt install ./google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb



Ensure it worked:



    google-chrome --version



    Installing ChromeDriver



Find the URL of the ChromeDriver version that matches your Chrome version on the ChromeDriver website. It should be a zip file; in my case it’s https://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/86.0.4240.22/chromedriver_linux64.zip.



Download, unzip, and put it in your bin directory:



    wget https://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/86.0.4240.22/chromedriver_linux64.zip

    unzip chromedriver_linux64.zip

    sudo mv chromedriver /usr/bin/chromedriver

    sudo chown root:root /usr/bin/chromedriver

    sudo chmod +x /usr/bin/chromedriver



Double check it worked:



    chromedriver --version



If you had previously installed ChromeDriver in Windows and were using it in WSL from the Path, make sure you aren’t pointing to that one anymore:



which chromedriver # should be /usr/bin/chromedriver

The X Server



Download and install VcXsrv in Windows. Once installed, run xlaunch.exe (from the VcXsrv folder in Program Files). You can leave most of the settings as default, but make sure to check “Disable access control”.



In Linux the DISPLAY environment variable tells GUI applications at which IP address the X Server is that we want to use. Since in WSL2 the IP address of Windows land is not localhost anymore, we need to set DISPLAY to the correct IP address:



    export DISPLAY=$(cat /etc/resolv.conf | grep nameserver | awk '{print $2; exit;}'):0.0



Just Run command into terminal



I recommend you put this in your .bashrc or whatever the equivalent is for your distro.



Now if you run echo $DISPLAY you should get something like 172.17.35.177:0.0.



All done



If you run google-chrome the Linux-side Chrome should open inside an X server window in Windows! This will also “just work” when ChromeDriver tries to open Chrome when you run your automated tests.

## Install Selenium



    sudo apt-get install selenium



## Test



    import time

    from selenium import webdriver



    driver = webdriver.Chrome('/usr/bin/chromedriver')  # Optional argument, if not specified will search path.

    driver.get('http://www.google.com/');

    time.sleep(5) # Let the user actually see something!

    search_box = driver.find_element_by_name('q')

    search_box.send_keys('ChromeDriver')

    search_box.submit()

    time.sleep(5) # Let the user actually see something!

    driver.quit()



Run on terminal



    python3 test.py



To find path of chromedriver



    whereis chromedriver



## How to deactivate Virtual Environment



    env/bin/deactivate



## Freeze and create requirements



    pip3 freeze > requirements.txt
