Find kit on Cex, fast

This project is a Go module with console, cli and web app clients for rapid and effective searches for second hand equipment for sale at Cex/Webuy using the unofficial webuy.io json search endpoint.

Note that these programs only work for queries made in the UK (or via a proxy terminating in the UK). This is intended to be a fun project not intended for commercial use.

Usage

Simply download the binaries for your machine's architecture from releases. Alternatively, build for your local machine using make build-all if you have go (>= 1.22) installed. The resulting binaries can be found in bin.

Clients

Three clients are provided:

web server

A simple htmx webserver client.

Run ./bin/webserver or the windows alternative to run the server locally on the default local ip address of 127.0.0.1 and port 8000. Use the command line switches to change these options. (Use -h to see the switches.)

console

A bubbletea console app.

Have a look at the app README for more info about the architecture of this client.

cli

A simple cli client.

Run ./bin/cli -h or the windows alternative to see the switch options.
