Self-hosted Marktplaats notifications for Telegram
Caution
This is an unofficial bot that uses unofficial APIs, so you take all the responsibility for any consequences of running the bot, for example, account or IP bans.
Warning
The version 2.x is not well-tested yet.
Note
I realize the documentation is not complete – this is not a deliberate choice, but rather the best I could do given the limited resources. I strive to maintain and improve it over time.
mrktpltsbot is a single binary which can be installed from crates.io:
cargo install mrktpltsbotmrktpltsbot supports conventional CLI options as well as environment variables.
On launch, it also automatically loads .env from the working directory.
See mrktpltsbot --help for the complete list of options,
including the corresponding environment variable names.
Tip
Right now, the only required option is a Telegram bot token.
Important
mrktpltsbot stores all the data in an SQLite database.
By default, it creates the database file in the working directory.
