Advent of Code Notifier

A script that sends a message on Slack and/or Discord whenever a leaderboard on Advent of Code changes.

• On the first run, the script reads the current leaderboard and writes it to a new file called old_leaderboard.json in the current directory.
• On subsequent runs, the script reads the previous leaderboard from this file and compares it with the current leaderboard. It then sends a message summarizing the leaderboard changes to the configured Slack app and/or Discord server, and updates the file's contents.

Setup

pip install -r requirements.txt
