ZerodhaRequestToken

Zerodha Request Token is a python script built using selenium to automate the zerodha login process in order to get the request_token which will be further used to get the access_token.

Currently you need to login manually to get request token from URL, as per exchange policy, auto-login is not allowed. Access token is valid through the day, until you log-out/destroy the session. In order to automate this process I have developed this script.
