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.

Original README

hey look it's an ebooks bot

python3

install the requirements with sudo pip3 install -r requirements

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
