You're invited for a kicktipp game, but don't know anything about soccer? No problem, just let this bot guess for you.

Update FIFA World Cup 2018

I tested this bot briefly in the official game GAME_SLUG=wm18-tippspiel. It seems to work, but it may or may not break in the future. Don't hesitate to file a bug, as I will probably not be using it actively.

Usage

1. Run > yarn install.
2. setup an .env file with your kicktipp username, group and password as follows:

USER_NAME=bratwurst
PASSWORD=very_secure_passw0rd
GAME_SLUG=meine-tipprunde

3. Run > yarn start and enjoy.

Pro Tips

• If you don't know, why the bot fails, run it in window mode: yarn start --env window
• Make sure, you have answered all non-result questions before starting the bot (e.g. "Who will become FIFA World Champion 2018?" - the bot does not know which team will dominate (although it is in favor of Germany...)

Feature Requests

• add a smarter predictor implementation, which does not rely on the btwin quota, so it can predict e.g. the whole Bundesliga season in one session
• dump nightwatch for something nicer, e.g. puppeteer.

Update for Bundesliga

Could you update it for the current Bundesliga season? It only fills out the first page.

Script fails to login to kicktipp

Hi @fpoppinga
I wanted to use your bot (for the world championship).
But your script fails to login to kicktipp.
The script doest find/get the .messagebox.success div.
Im not sure what is the cause of this, credentials should be correct in the .env File (double checked that).

See logs for more info:

yarn start
yarn run v1.3.2
$ yarn build && yarn run nightwatch
$ tsc
$ nightwatch
Before!

Bot seems to fail if there is a game that is already over and does not accept inputs anymore.

Any ideas?
