mstdn-ebooks

Lynnear Edition

This version makes quite a few changes from the original, such as:

Unicode support
Non-Markov stuff
Stores toots in a sqlite database rather than a text file
- Doesn't unecessarily redownload all toots every time

Install/usage guide

An installation and usage guide is available for unix-based platforms (linux, macOS...) here.

hey look it's an ebooks bot

python3

install the requirements with sudo pip3 install -r requirements.txt

make a bot (probably on bots in space) and follow the target accounts

run python3 main.py to login and scrape

run python3 gen.py to make a toot

cron is an okay choice to make it toot regularly
