StubHub

It's just a bunch of scripts that you can run/schedule as desired to save stubhub data. Obviously you need a mongo instance somehwere (dbname 'stubhub' with collections 'events' and 'listings'), as well as stubhub api credentials, a la config.py.example

Setting up mongodb

From within the mongo shell:

> use stubhub
switched to db stubhub
> db.createCollection('events')
{ "ok" : 1 }
> db.createCollection('listings')
{ "ok" : 1 }

Using the code

• add_events.py - reads from STDIN, line-delineated stubhub event ids to add their metadata to the events collection in mongo.
• record_listings.py - records all listings in listings collection for all events in events collections. this will have to be enhanced so it only tries to record listings for events that haven't happened yet.

Make a virtualenv to run it in, then while inside the env:

pip install -r requirements.txt

should get everything ready to go, assuming your config.py is properly set up. record_listings.py will likely be a cron job, make sure to load the env for it.
