Basic operation? about amazonflexunlimited HOT 4 CLOSED

Don't worry about the http requests. You can actually just run the app with the singleRun.py file from your command line. However, it seems that I left some hard coded arguments, such as warehouse locations, in the code, and it is just in generally a bit messy so I might try to clean it up this week.

So I actually spent some time last week familiarizing myself with everything and with a few edits concerning my particular preferences I have it where I can use either singleRun.py or service.py and its been working great for me so far.

Also, the way I've been filtering the offer results is just programmatically in the findJobs() function after all offer results have been returned from getOffers() and before calling acceptOffer().

So far, the time it takes to run the filters I have in place are fast enough to where I haven't had much of a problem with ultimately being able to get the kind of offers i'm ultimately looking for. So, by doing that I've avoided the issue of having to immediately accept any/all offers and then forfeit all the ones I'm ultimately uninterested in.

Just thought i'd mention that in case you have an interest in revising that part of flex.py because forfeiting previously accepted offers negatively impacts what Amazon calls "standing" in the Amazon Flex program, which is basically a point based score that determines what/how many offers a driver will be sent and ultimately their ability to remain a driver.

I can submit a PR if you want to see how I'm using it. Just lmk.

Oh and I'm running on a Linode server and have had no issues, which is one solution to the AWS problem

I rewrote some of the program using a OO approach, and removed all the bloat. I haven't tested it since I don't have an Amazon Flex username and password, but you can test it. You're probably going to encounter bugs during run time, so feel free to make a PR if you can fix those bugs. Otherwise, just let me know of the bugs on this thread.
