How could i run this bot on a Debian 10 system without UI?

neopostmodern commented 4 years ago

The setup/config part absolutely depends on a GUI, so you'd have to run that on some machine that supports that. Then you could try to copy the config file to your headless system and run the app with xvfb.

But even then you'd need to find a headless way to solve the captchas - I guess creating a PR for Buster might be the best guess here, I haven't had the time to look into it.

Alright - how about running this little bugger on a raspberry pi 3 with raspbian (with gui) but 2 times in a appimage sandbox? Or how would it be possible to run it twice for 2 different searches on one machine?

neopostmodern commented 4 years ago

I don't think that's currently possible, but I haven't done any research in that direction. Why is it necessary to have multiple searches in the first place? Maybe that's something that could be tackled rather?

Because a friend is looking too and i wanted to help him with it. I need 2 bots - one for me and one for my friend. I have only one server though

I see. Well, I think there is not much preventing you from launching multiple instances of any Electron app (which is what the Wohnungsbot boils down to) - except the configuration files, which would conflict. It shouldn't be hard to add an option to use a different folder for storing that data though.

Again, I'd be happy to accept a PR that enables that if you want to look into it.
