How to check for price drops with Functions, Cron and LLMs
- alexellisuk 2y agoHi, I'm the founder of OpenFaaS This is a blog post about the MIT licensed version of OpenFaaS ideal for automation/marketing tasks and temporary or short-lived workflows. > Learn how Alex bought a set of premium chisels by monitoring the price using HTML scraping and a cron job with OpenFaaS. You can apply the same technique for things you'd like to buy or monitor. I also compare an LLM vs web scraping, and talk about other real-world use-cases for this kind of approach that we use, and that we've seen other users running in production. Hope you find it interesting/useful.
