UK Nova Signup Tool in Ruby
April 16th, 2007
After giving the Paul Bain UK Nova Signup tool a bash and not ever receiving a confirmation email to start using it, I thought I’d just write my own in Ruby and so far it seems to work!
I’ve included the script here to do with as you please, but please make sure you do not use this script for evil! In my mind I don’t see much wrong with refreshing a page and filling in a form programatically – the script should only check the page between every 30 – 60 seconds.
You’ll need to run it on a Windows box with the Watir and Hpricot gems installed, just call: ruby novasignup.rb username email password and sit and watch the log.
