Automating My Now Page, Update

What?

I wrote an AWS Lambda function that

• Pulls watch history and ratings for movies and TV episodes (only) from Trakt using the Trakt API
• Updates the Amazon DynamoDB table that drives my Now page contents

I also updated my Nowbot code to check for updates in DynamoDB. (Previously, I was only checking for updates to the paste.)

Why?

• I can now use the Trakt app to track and rate the movies and TV shows that I watch.
• Automation is good.
• Projects like this are fun.

Where

• Here’s the code for my new Lambda Function, called Traktbot
