Infinite Loop

[Jarbinski]

Hi, great program. Is there scope for this to be on an infinite loop? For example, it just keeps running until I stop it once I notice i'm out of swipes?

Hi @Jarbinski ,

I'm glad to hear you like the tinderbot so far :)
Currently it doesn't stop liking once it has hit the daily limited amount of swipes.
Instead it will keep trying to like the amount of times you entered in the script.

I'll try to implement it in the next update, so that it stops liking once the limitation has been reached for the non-paying tinder users.

Thanks for the idea.

Greetings,

Fred :)

Thank you for that. I'm sorry if I wasn't concise before. I just mean, so that it continues to loop so that even if a person has run out of likes, it will continue to run the script over and over, capturing new matches and opening a conversation. Because currently, it likes people, checks messages and then ends the session.

So I guess I more so mean that instead of ending the session it loops back and starts again.

Thanks for the quick reply!

Kind regards,

Jarred

I think the code below might be able to give you some inspiration to make that work.
I'll break it down in the following 6 steps:

1. simply logging in to Tinder (using the method you prefer)
2. start looping infinitely (until you stop the program manually)
3. tries to like a profile (if you're not out of swipes yet)
4. checks if there are any new matches
5. iterate through each of the new matches (if there are any)
6. handle each match accordingly (you'd need to adjust this to what you want to do with it: send messages / storing them locally / ...)

session = Session()
session.login_using_facebook(email_facebook, password_facebook)  # 1

while True:  # 2
    session.like()  # 3

    new_matches = session.get_new_matches()  # 4

    for match in new_matches:  # 5

        # 6
        id = match.get_chat_id()
        name = match.get_name()

        message = f"Hi {name} :)"

        session.send_message(chatid=id, message=message)

Hope this helped :)

Fred
