A tool to upload your advertisements to multiple sites, like Marktplaats and Tweakers.

Demo

Use cases:

• prevent manually entering the same advertisement information on multiple websites
• quickly reupload your advertisements, useful for example if they expire or you want them to be higher up in the search results

For each advertisement, the program expects a folder with photos and a text file for the description.

You will need to create a folder for each advertisement you want to upload.
Such a folder needs to contain the photos and the description for the advertisement.
The description should be provided as a .txt file, and must contain the following:

• First line: advertisement title
• Second line: asking price
• Remaining lines: description

• Activate the virtual environment you created, see the Installing instructions below
• Run the program with python uploader.py
• The program asks for one or more folders which have the structure as defined above
• The program enters the details on the advertisement site
• You review/edit the details and press upload yourself
• The program will then continue to the next
