Apple Store Stock Notifier monitors the availability of selected Apple devices in selected Apple stores, and sends you a notification when devices are available!

Overview

Apple Store Stock Notifier

This software will immediately send you a notification via Telegram when one of your coveted Apple Devices is available in the selected Apple Stores! In addition, it offers various tools (such as graphs) to analyze the availability of the selected devices from the comfort of your smartphone / tablet / teapot / desktop etc. (whatever Telegram runs on). It is intended to run on an always-on device (such as a Raspberry Pi), and requires an internet connection and a Telegram account.

This software is built on a modified version of Apple-Store-Reserve-Monitor by insanoid.

Installation

How to install

  1. Clone this repository and cd to it.
  2. Execute pip install -r requirements.txt.
  3. Adapt the config.json file to your needs (see under "use").
  4. Create a Telegram bot to inform you and enter the required details in parameters.py.
  5. Run the monitor with python monitor.py.
  6. (optional) Send /setcommands to the Telegram Botfather chat, select the bot and send the output under "Commands available:" to make the commands easily accessible from the chat.

Running the pip numpy on the Raspberry Pi can be cumbersome. If you get errors pertaining to "Importing the numpy C-extensions failed", try running sudo apt-get install python-dev libatlas-base-dev.

Use

It's as simple as entering the device and Apple Store you want in config.json and running python module.py. The model in config.json is the model part number, that can be looked up here. The store in config.json is the store ID, a list of which can be looked up here, defaults to all stores in the zip-code region. config.json is part of the interface of Apple Store Reserve Monitor, more information on how to use this here.

You can change the parameters regarding intervals, paths, use of proxies etc. from the defaults in parameters.py.

It is recommended to run this on a computer that is always on and always has an active internet connection (think of the environment when doing this!). Raspberry Pi and similar computing boards are often good choices. You may want to set up a job to start this automatically using crontab or bashrc if you are running this on a Raspberry Pi, so it can run autonomously.

Please use this software responsibly! Do not set a low polling interval, both for your own benefit (you will be blocked) as for the other users of Apple's service. In general, the defaults set are fine for being notified in time. The intended use is for people to be able to get an Apple device that is often out of stock for their own use. Do not use this software for scalping, price gouging or any other use that is unethical.

Proxies

Randomized proxies help you make requests for a prolonged period of time without your IP-address being blocked by Apple's server. For this http-request-randomizer by pgaref (licensed under MIT license) is used. If randomized proxies are enabled in parameters.py, a list of free proxies will be generated. When a request is made, a random proxy is selected from this list. If the proxy does not return a response within the timeout window, the proxy is removed from the list. Because free proxies are often slow and unreliable, for each request, it will fallback to a non-proxied request after attempting a proxy unsuccesfully. However, because unresponsive proxies are removed from the list, in most cases this random proxy system becomes reliable after a while. Keep in mind that free proxies only remain active for a very short time (days or even hours), so if this program is ran for a long time, the list will become empty, at which point it reloads the proxy list. Using the randomized proxies is significantly slower than direct requests, but prevent your IP address from being blocked.

Licensing

This software builts on other open source software. As such, it is MIT licensed.

    Just creating new ticket and referencing the old ticket, as I commented after it was closed, but not sure if it will be seen>

    Let me back up. I did run the monitor.py file, and i had some errors initially there, and that is why i was trying to invoke the store checker to skip the telegram piece, as i thought it was a telegram issue. Now that I know that you cannot do that, here is the issue i have when running the monitor.py file:

    I get the following errors:

    That last error. I am definitely not sending from a bot to another bot. My username is my regular telegram username (tried with @ and without @), and the API_ID / hash was generated under the api section of my account. The bot_token was the token that was provided when creating the bot.

    I also tried removing the *.session files with no luck.

    Lastly, I also tried creating a completely different account with different phone number for the bot, so that i can validate 100% that the bot and my user was under a different account, and i got the same error.
