Custom location based script for Pokemon Alerts

This script reads feeds of pokemon from Twitter and/or Discord regularly and then filters those by your iPhone's location and sends Messenger notifications of the ones close to your location.

Instalation

$ virtualenv venv
$ source venv/bin/activate
$ pip install -r requirements.txt

Prerequisites

This script makes some assumptions:

• You have access to Twitter, Discord, Facebook and iCloud
• You have Twitter feeds of tweets that include a Pokemon name in its text and a location (latitude, longitude) in its URL
  • Any other tweet will be discarded
• You have Discord channels of messages that include a Pokemon name in its text and a location (latitude, longitude) in its URL
  • Any other message will be discarded

You need to create a file that it's not tracked because of sensitive information (login credentials and tokens) located at src/credentials.py. The file should look like this:

FB_EMAIL = '[email protected]'
FB_PASSWORD = 'password'
FB_THREAD_ID = '1525064787606453'
FB_COOKIE_FILE = './cookies/fb'

APPLE_EMAIL = '[email protected]'
APPLE_PASSWORD = 'password'
APPLE_COOKIE_DIRECTORY = './cookies/apple'
IPHONE_NAME = "John's iPhone"

TWITTER_API_CONSUMER_KEY = 'key'
TWITTER_API_CONSUMER_SECRET = 'secret'
TWITTER_API_ACCESS_TOKEN_KEY = 'token-key'
TWITTER_API_ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET = 'token-secret'
TWITTER_POKEMON_FEEDS = [
  'username',
]

DISCORD_API_TOKEN = 'token'
DISCORD_CHANNELS = [
  'channel_id',
]

POKEMON_LIST = [
  'Dragonite',
]

• The script uses the FB info to login to Facebook and send messages from that account to that group thread.
• The script uses the APPLE info to login to iCloud and get the location of that device.
• The script uses the TWITTER info to togin to Twitter and fetch the tweets of those feeds.
• The script uses the DISCORD info to fetch Discord messages from those channels with that token.
• POKEMON_LIST should contain all pokemon names, but since it's too long I didn't put it here.

The script uses a cookies folder to save login info, so if you're using the same paths for cookies as my example, don't forget to create the folder (that is also ignored in git)

mkdir cookies

Run

$ PYTHONPATH=. python src/script.py
