Get instantly notified about new items you are interested in!

Have you ever browsed HardverApro, found a good deal and wrote to the seller just to find out someone has already bought the item?
If you feel like you have to be on the site 24/7 to get something with a very good price, this app is for you!

What is AproScrape

AproScrape is a free, opensource web scraper which will periodically check HardverApro for new items you are searching for and display a notification when it finds one, so you can contact the seller as fast as you can.

Installation

Download the latest version from the releases page. Installers are available for all platforms (Windows, Linux, OSX).

Usage

Go to hardverapro.hu, navigate to a topic you are interested in, like the Android phone's page.

In this example I will also use the detailed search option to only see items from Budapest.

Android page on hardverapro

Now hit search, and copy the URL from your browser, then open AproScrape and paste the link to the input field on the top.

AproScrape main window

Press the Scrape button, and you should see deals from the website.

Here comes the fun part: If you minimize the window, it will hide to the taskbar, and display a notification when it finds new items!

AproScrape main window

Open the app by clicking on the notification or the icon in the taskbar, and click on the item's link. It will navigate you straight to HardverApro and you can contact the seller immediately!

Note: highlighted item are excluded, since they are always at the top of the page and it doesn't make sense to scrape them.

Feedback

Feedbacks are always welcome! If you have an idea how to make AproScrape better or found a bug, open a new issue and I'll read it for sure. Pull requests are also appreciated!
