This bot uses Node.js and Puppeteer to automate the checkout on various sneaker websites. It currently works on:
- Footsites (footlocker.com, footaction.com, eastbay.com, champssports.com)
- Shopify sites (e.g. BdgaStore, Concepts, Kith, etc.)
- Demandware sites (e.g. Adidas)
- Nike.com
- Supreme
Install the following on your machine:
- Node.js (comes with npm)
- PostgreSQL
Make a copy of the .env.example
file, replacing example
with the name of your NODE_ENV
e.g. local
or development
.
Declare the environment name with:
$ export NODE_ENV=local
$ npm install
$ knex migrate:latest
$ knex seed:run
Tasks run parallelly using puppeteer-cluster.
Before starting up the server, define the number of concurrent tasks you plan to run:
$ export PARALLEL_TASKS=5
If you do not define this variable, it will default to 1
.
You can of course run more tasks, but they will be queued to run in a first-in, first-out (FIFO) manner.
Keep in mind that tasks that do not result in checkoutComplete
will remain idle (not terminate) so that you can open the browser and view the error(s).
If a task encounters a captcha that must be manually solved, it will also remain idle and await completion.
Each task uses its own browser, so it's also important to keep in mind the CPU constraints of your machine.
When you're ready, start the server with:
$ npm start
For each API, view the docs and try the requests in Postman.
This bot enables manual and automatic (via 2Captcha) solving of captchas.
When creating a task, you can specify auto_solve_captcha
(Boolean), however, this parameter is optional and defaults to true
.
You must sign up for and fund a 2Captcha account, and then add your API_KEY_2CAPTCHA
to the .env file in order to auto-solve captchas.
For manually-solving captchas, you will be given a 5-minute timeout after the email notification to check the browser and solve the captcha.
As a teenager, I operated sneakerbots.us, where I sold sneakerbots like this in addition to early links and ATC services.
Fastforward several years, I decided to upgrade this all-in-one bot from Java + Selenium to Node.js + Puppeteer, which I enjoy more for bot projects.
I am open sourcing this repo now, since I no longer operate the business, but also because I am of the opinion that this software can rival any of the others out there that sell for hundreds of dollars.
Feel free to open a Pull Request to contribute to this proejct and help make it better! I will continue to support more websites and add more features as I can.
If you appreciate this, consider buying me a coffee.
