This bot is awesome, it would really be great if CodeChef is also there in the list of contest sites. Thanks :)

Tried implementing CodeChef but there is just too much to parse, without a proper API the web scraper is using up too much CPU for the bot to run.

TODO:

  • Find a work around that does not involve web scraping (maybe third-party API?)

Codechef has an API structure, hope this helps. https://developers.codechef.com/

Seems like I need to contact them to access it. I'll look into this, thanks for the tip!

Added CodeChef contests. The service I am using to host this bot only has so much memory, so I'll leave CodeChef problems as a TODO for now.
