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.

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=<Product page url>

Add extra param for adding constant data to feed. Example: http://localhost:12564/flipkart?link=<Product page url>?my_price=1000 This wont do anything other than returning it with the feed. It can be used as a note! :p
