Reporting the important things to the masses

pirkka-kun

Pirkkabot innocently scans K-Ruoka webstore for Pirkka III -beer's price daily. To combat ever changing CloudFlare and other bot blocking mechanisms used by K-Ruoka, Pirkkabot uses a combination of a managed distrubuted web scraper - ScrapeOps and BeatuifulSoup to scrape and parse K-Ruoka page contents.
