Disclaimer & WARNINGS:

1. IMPORTANT: Make sure you have cleared any saved Debit/Credit Card info from your Browser & your Udemy account before using the script!
2. Also, the script has only been tested on the Microsoft Edge Browser but I'm pretty sure it will work on any browser that provides a webdriver for automation.
3. Make sure web-scraping is legal in your region and I'm not responsible for any kind of issue caused by the code. Also use this ONLY for Educational Purposes!
4. This is NOT a hacking script, i.e., it can't enroll you for a specific course! Instead it finds courses that provide coupon links to make the transaction free and then LEGALLY enroll you to the course!

Requirements:

Requests module for Python:

pip install requests

BeautifulSoup Web-Scraping Library for Python:

pip install beautifulsoup4

Selenium Browser Automation Tool for Python:

pip install selenium

Required Python version: Python 3.8

A webdriver for the browser of your choice:
- Edge- https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/tools/webdriver/
- Chrome- https://chromedriver.chromium.org/
- Firefox- https://github.com/mozilla/geckodriver/releases
- Safari- https://webkit.org/blog/6900/webdriver-support-in-safari-10/ .etc
Note: Make sure that the driver version matches your browser.

Note for Ubuntu/Linux Users: Run these commands in the terminal before installing the previous requirements:
```
sudo apt-get update
```
```
sudo apt-get upgrade
```
```
sudo apt install python3-pip
```

Instructions

Make sure to install all the requirements above.
Choose either format of the code: the .py file (highly recommended) or the jupyter notebook (untested).
Open the .py file in IDLE. Then click on Options->Show Line Numbers in the IDLE Menu Bar.
Enter your Udemy credentials in the email & password variables on line 43 & 44 of the code.
If located in the USA, enter a zipcode in the zipcode variable on line 48 of the code.
Enter the location of you webdriver in the path variable on line 56.
Choose the appropriate browser in the driver variable on line 57.
The bot starts scraping the course links from the first All Courses page on Tutorial Bar and starts enrolling you to Udemy courses. After it has enrolled you to courses from the first page, it then moves to the next Tutorial Bar page and the cycle continues. However, you can change the starting page in the page variable on line 121. (not recommended, except when you are trying to redeem old coupons, which may or may not be valid at this point of time; But sometimes, by a stroke of luck, the coupons may still work!)

FAQs

1. Can I get a specific course for free with this script?

Unfortunately no, but let me assure you that you may be lucky enough to get a particular course for free when the instructor posts it's coupon code in order to promote it. Also, over time you would build a library of courses by running the script often and have all the required courses in your collection. In fact, I made this course after completing a Python automation course and selenium, which of course I got for free! :)

2. How the bot works?

The bot retrieves coupon links from Tutorial Bar's list to cut the prices and then uses Selenium's Browser automation features to login and enroll to the courses. Think of it this way: Epic Games & other clients like Steam provide you a handful of games each week, for free; Only in this case, we need a coupon code to make those courses free.

3. How frequently should you run the script?

Daily, at least once! If you are using it for the first time, I recommend that you allow it to scrape through all pages on Tutorial Bar (might take a few hours since there are >500 pages on the site). I've painstakingly amassed over 4000 courses in the last four years! And out of those 4000, I've only paid for 4 of these courses:

So, a mere 0.001% of courses are actually paid in my collection! Thankfully, you can get more than what I gathered in 4 years, in a matter of weeks! 🙌🏻

4. Why did I create this?

It used to be my daily habit to redeem courses and it was an extremely tedious task that took around 15 minutes, for 10 courses. And then I suddenly got the idea to automate it, after I found the automation course mentioned above. I bet, it will save your precious time too! :)

5. "Udemy has detected that I'm using automation tools to browse the website! What should I do?"

Relax! This happens when you run the script several times in a short interval of time. Solve the captcha, close the browser and the webdriver, and simply re-run the bot. Easy peasy lemon squeezy! 🍋🙃

6. The code compiles successfully but it's taking too long to work! IS there any way to fix that?

Since we are heavily dependent on a third-party site to retrieve coupons links, there may be issues when the site is down. Needless to mention the connectivity issues too. If everything is working fine, you can see the courses being retrieved in the Python console/shell, which may take a while.

7. Which is the best way to run the script?

It is highly recommended to run the script using Python's IDLE IDE.
