Repository files navigation

A minimal webpage monitor that continuously compares a site's HTML against itspast snapshot and sends you an email of the deltas if any.

I'm using it to monitor website updates of the researchers I follow (e.g., new papers).

Create a conda environment with all dependencies:

conda env create -f environment.yml

1. Specify the URLs that you'd like to track (and optional URL-specificarguments) by editing./roster.json.

2. Create a file./gmail_app_pswd, with its content being your Gmailapp-specific password (NOT your Google account password; see how to set oneuphere).

3. Activate the environment and run the monitor:

conda activate webpage-monitorpython main.py
