This is a very simple python console program written to retrieve data about a specific steam market item (every five minutes). It will be developed more in the future adding more advanced features. Possibly it will be converted into a library.
USAGE :
When you look at the source code, you will see some lines of code between two fancy comment lines, they are supposed to be the configuration to this program, i'll break it down step by step.
############## CONFIG ###############
item_appid = '264710'
item_currency = '1'
item_hash_name = 'Planet%204546B%20Postcard'
#####################################
The first line of configuration is about the app_id :
item_appid = '264710'
This app-id is for the game called Subnautica on Steam , you can easily find app ids by a simple Google search. Remember to enclose it in quotation marks.
Then the second line is for the currency to retrieve the price in , and here you need to write the currency id . Here '1' is for US Dollar (USD)
item_currency = '1'
Finally , the item_hash_name , it can be easily found from the item's listing page's URL.
Simple isn't it ? Save the file , and run the program.
