Bot for the BitSkins website

Technical assignment (TA) for the development of a bot for the BitSkins website

Introduction

Good day.

We need to develop a bot to interact with the BitSkins website. The main functions of the bot include working with the site's API, monitoring incoming items with subsequent purchases when they meet specified parameters, and sending notifications to Telegram about the results of purchases.

Functionality Requirements

1. Working with the BitSkins API:

   • Integration with the BitSkins API to perform the following operations:
     • Monitoring incoming items on the site.
     • Automatic purchase of items that meet specified parameters (e.g., price, item type, quality, etc.).
     • Working with an item database that the user can upload to the bot (e.g., via file upload or interface).
     • There should be a blacklist of items.

2. Purchasing items:

   • Purchases of items are made based on the following criteria
     • By price: the bot compares the current price of the item with the price from the user-uploaded item database. If the price of the item on BitSkins is equal to or lower than the specified percentage from the database, the bot makes the purchase.
     • By item quality: the bot analyzes the wear level of the item. If the wear matches the parameters specified by the user, the bot purchases the item.
     • By stickers: the bot checks for the presence of stickers on the item, including their condition and wear. If the stickers meet the criteria from the database, the bot makes the purchase.
     • By price: Additional mode, I will clarify this in correspondence. Since I do not know how to describe it correctly.

3. Notifications in Telegram:

   • Sending notifications to Telegram about the results of purchases:
     • Successful purchase of an item.
     • Unsuccessful purchase attempt.
     • Ability to set filters for notifications (disable unsuccessful ones).
   • Notifications about found items that meet the specified criteria before making a purchase for user confirmation (optional).

4. Logging bot activity:

   • Logging all operations related to the bot's work, including:
     • Successful and unsuccessful purchase attempts.
     • Errors and exceptions occurring during operation.
     • Requests to the API and responses from the BitSkins API.
   • Sending logs to a separate Telegram channel for real-time monitoring of the bot's activity.
     
     
   • Notification mode:
     • The bot should have an additional "Notifications" mode:
       • In this mode, the bot does not make purchases of items but simply sends notifications to the specified Telegram channel about found items that meet the specified criteria.
         
         

Implementation Requirements

• The bot must be implemented using Python.
• The bot's code should be structured, easily configurable, and have clear documentation.
• Working with the database should be simple: the user can upload/update the item database via file or a convenient interface.
• The bot should use asynchronous request processing to improve performance and stability.

Deadlines

• The project should be completed within a reasonable timeframe: 10+- days for development and up to 5 days for bug/error fixes.

• Additional Information

  I have been working in this field for over 10 years. If you have any questions, I can explain every detail. I also ask you to consider that in this TA I tried to specify all the nuances, but there should always be room for minor changes.
