Homework Bot

Bot for checking the status of homework for code review in Yandex.Practicum

This bot uses Yandex.Practicum API data. Works both on PC and Heroku, just run the bot with valid tokens. Every 10 minutes bot checks the Yandex.Practicum API and sends the status to telegram account. If the work is reviewed you will receive a message about the status (if there are changes) of your code review.

The Practicum.Homework API has only one endpoint and access to it possible only by token.

You can get the token here. Copy it. Later it will come in handy.

How this API works

When reviewer checks your homework, its status changes:

• homework submitted for review
• homework returned for bug fixes
• homework is accepted

If the program detects a status change during the next check (once per 10 minutes), the updated status is sent by the bot to the specified chat.
