Load Groupon Codes into Shopify Discounts

coupons

# http://forums.shopify.com/categories/6/posts/42926
# This is a fairly simple mechanize script to create a few hundred or so shopify discounts from a CSV of groupon codes.
# You'll want to change all of the "changeme" values to your own.
# The script expects there to be a groupon_codes.csv in the same directory.
#
# The groupons_code.csv should look like this:
# 8m7677
# 8m6749
# 8m5398
# 8m7699
# 8m8885
# 8m788
# etc.

require 'mechanize'
require 'csv'

BASE_URL = 'https://changeme.myshopify.com/admin'

USER = 'chamgeme'
PASSWORD = 'chamgeme'
DISCOUNT = "chamgeme"

@agent = Mechanize.new
@groupon_codes = []

def login
  page = @agent.get(BASE_URL + LOGIN_PATH)
  form = page.forms.first
  form.login = USER
  form.password = PASSWORD
  @agent.submit(page.forms.first)
end

def load_codes
  @groupon_codes = CSV.read("groupon_codes.csv").flatten
end

def create_discount(page, code)
  puts "Create discount for code: #{code}..."
  # You may want to have some error handling in case you have connection issues. Worked fine for me with 500+ codes though.
  page.form_with(:action => "#{BASE_URL}/discounts") do |f|
    f.send("discount[code]=", code)
    f.send("discount[value]=", DISCOUNT)
    f.send("discount[usage_limit]=", "1")
  end.click_button

Hi,

This looks really nice. Could you help provide some context though? Where does this code go?
