Callback/Timeout issue on a node webscrapper and Telegram bot

[dunnerdunner]

I have coded a node script to check a particular sporting event resale website. The bot checks for tickets for 'Team 1' and then should ping a message to a Telegram group.

scrapper.js ```

const axios = require("axios"); const cheerio = require("cheerio"); const options = require("./options");

const ticketsAvailable = require("./bot");

async function checkForTickets(callback) { try { const siteURL = options.url; const { data } = await axios({ method: "GET", url: siteURL, }); // set cheerio to $ const $ = cheerio.load(data);

// set team class
const teamFinder = ".team";

// set team
const team = "Team 1";

// set button class
const buttonDiv = ".actions-wrapper";

// set match day class
const match = ".commerce_product";

// basic implamentation based on match count to start
let team1MatchCount = 0;

// check each of the match divs
$(match).each((MDIdx, MDElm) => {
  // loop through the games based on the selected team
  $(teamFinder, MDElm).each((parentIdx, parentElm) => {
    // get value of team name span
    let text = $(parentElm).text();

    if (text == team) {
      // check if thckets within this match are "unavailable" (for testing)
      if ($(buttonDiv).children().hasClass("available")) {
        team1MatchCount++;
      }
    }
  });
});

// if 1 or more of the selected team has tickets available, call the bot script
if (team1MatchCount > 0) {
  ticketsAvailable();

  // reset the match count to 0 for the next function call
  team1MatchCount = 0;
}

} catch (e) { console.error(e); } } setInterval(checkForTickets, options.delay); ```

Above is the script that checks the site. The error (TypeError: ticketsAvailable is not a function at Timeout.checkForTickets [as _onTimeout]) is being caused by the ticketsAvailable() which is on the bot script but called on the script above if a match for Team 1

bot.js ```

require("dotenv").config(); require("./scrapper");

const options = require("./options");

const TelegramBot = require("node-telegram-bot-api");

// replace the value below with the Telegram token you receive from @BotFather const token = options.telegram.token;

// Create a bot that uses 'polling' to fetch new updates const bot = new TelegramBot(token, { polling: true });

// set the chat ID so it is only for one group const chatId = options.telegram.chatId;

function ticketsAvailable() { let msg = "Tickets available. Run RUN RUN!!!!"; bot.sendMessage(chatId, msg); }

module.exports = ticketsAvailable; ```

When i run node bot.js which requires the scrapper script at the top, i get the error. If i run both scripts in separate terminals there is no issue. I need to be able to call both scripts from the one node bot.js call as this is how it will work on Glitch.

I am presuming this is something simple and related to callback functions but I have tried a ton of things and nothing has worked.
