Hi everyone! Hope you liked the video. Best Buy has updated their page, so I tweaked the code a bit to work again. Check out this commit for the changes: github.com/ryanmurakami/ps5-stock-checker/commit/b4d84adac409c8976755542d514c8606f26b9e54
The lambda runtime environment already has a version of the AWS SDK installed, so you really only need to install the package if you want a different version. Otherwise, you’re just increasing the size of your deployment. Of course, if you’re going to run the function locally, then you’ll need it. If you use serverless-webpack for your production bundle, you can use forceExclude to leave out the aws-sdk from the bundle. I think. It’s been a while since I used this.
Thanks for the kind words, Peter! Yeah, absolutely. That'll save you from the charges of the lambda continuing to run. You can also remove the SNS topic, but as of right now they don't cost anything as long as API requests aren't made. Did you snag one!?
Hi Thiago! No dice yet! 😔 I turned off the lambda awhile ago because I gave up hope. I’ve been busy working on new content, so I haven’t had much time for video games recently. I’ll probably just shoot for one when they figure out their stock. Thanks for checking! Have you gotten one?
@@RyanHLewis yes! I was looking for a Xbox series x instead of ps5. I did something really similar to your project, but running locally so I didn't have to pay for cloud. I ran this for 3-4 days and I got the alarm to buy it. Thanks for your help and guidance! :)

So awesome! You'll have to update us when you get one!
Definitely will! I hope it helps me beat the other bots. :-D

Great point, Joost! Thanks for commenting. I always forget about that. :-D
Great stuff Ryan, I guess you would want to disable the schedule after it detects a PS5 in stock, to prevent getting multiple notifications.

Nah, still got a PS4 that I rarely use!
@@surmo Haha, got it. My PS4 usage is tapering off too. If I ever get a PS5, I'll have to carve out time for it.
hey Ryan, have you gotten the PS5 already? It's been 3 months since you started the project. Let us know if you got it :)
