A simple crawler to get flight prices and notify me when there are cheap tickets available

Getting Started

Follow these instructions to have a copy of the project up and running on yout local machine for development and testing purposes. The project is still not deployed anywhere.

Prerequisites

Since it is powered by Node.js, you should install all dependencies before running it:

npm install
npm run start

Too much to do, not enough time

Yep, there's still too much to be done!

• The current code will search flights from São Paulo to Paris in October 2017 (it will be the 500th reformation anniversary!). It would be nice to add an interface so the user can input its own flight preferences.
• The current notifier sends me a Telegram Message. Ideally the notifier should be plug-and-play and notify you using the channel you want, such as SMS, skype, calls, smoke signal or whatever.
• The current code only checks decolar.com. It would be awesome to have more sources to search as well.
