Secret-Agent-Url

My take on a url monitoring tool.

Quick Start

1. Clone repository

git clone https://github.com/ccarse/Secret-Agent-Url
cd Secret-Agent-Url

2. Install dependencies

npm install

3. Edit config.js, most importantly the URLs object to include the URLs you'd like to monitor.
4. If using environment variables to store email credentials, set those.
5. Run!

node Secret-Agent-Url.js

TODO

• Error handling
• More customizable and richer output options
• Video quickstart tutorial
• Cron/launchd instructions
• Better logging

FAQ

Hey n00b, you didn't capitalize URL, what gives?

The project is pronounced Secret Agent Earl, it's not capitalized to try and help point out that it's a play on words.

Special thanks to https://github.com/thp. I've based a lot of this on his excellent python urlwatch tool. http://thp.io/2008/urlwatch/
