As requested, this is the [twitter_ebooks](https://github.com/mispy/twitter_ebooks) app which I use to run most of my own bots. It tweets one guaranteed tweet every 24h, always responds to interactions, and has some small unprompted interaction probability based on keyword matching.
|
||||
A turn-key, beginner-friendly, ready-to-deploy implementation of a traditional \_ebooks bot using Mispy's [twitter_ebooks](https://github.com/mispy/twitter_ebooks) library.
|
||||
|
||||
## Usage
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
git clone https://github.com/mispy/ebooks_example.git
|
||||
cd ebooks_example
|
||||
bundle install
|
||||
ebooks archive username corpus/username.json
|
||||
ebooks consume corpus/username.json
|
||||
```
|
||||
Create your [Twitter app](https://apps.twitter.com) and generate access tokens with *Read, Write and Direct Messages* privileges.
|
||||
|
||||
Populate bots.rb with your auth details, the bot username and model name, then:
|
||||
[](https://heroku.com/deploy?template=https://github.com/BooDoo/ebooks_example/tree/deploy)
|
||||
|
||||
`ebooks start`
|
||||
Put your BOT_NAME, SOURCE_USERNAME, and API secrets into Heroku Config Vars using the web dashboard.
|
||||
|
||||
Also runs as a Heroku app! See the [twitter_ebooks](https://github.com/mispy/twitter_ebooks) README for more information.
|
||||
Scale your app to 1 dyno using the Heroku web dashboard.
|
||||
|
||||
Bob's your uncle.
|
||||
|
||||
## Default Behavior
|
||||
Tweets once on startup.
|
||||
Has 80% chance of tweeting every 2 hours.
|
||||
Responds to mentions/DMs
|
||||
Favorites tweets that it likes.
|
||||
|
||||
## Special Features
|
||||
- **BLACKLIST**: accounts to not interact with
|
||||
- **BANNED_TERMS**: words or phrases to obscure/censor
|
||||
- DM commands (tweet, follow, unfollow, block, mention...)
|
||||
- Follower parity (periodically compares following/followers and follows/unfollows as needed)
|
||||
- Want something else? Create an [issue](https://github.com/BooDoo/ebooks_example/issues). No promises.
|
||||
|
||||
## TODO:
|
||||
- Support full archive (via CSV uploaded elsewhere)
|
||||
|
||||
# DISCLAIMER:
|
||||
I'm making this because I wrote a two-part tutorial for an older version of the twitter_ebooks gem and my mentions turned into a tech support hellscape for months.
|
||||
Please [create issues](https://github.com/BooDoo/ebooks_example/issues) if you have trouble. 🙏 Please do not tweet at me. 🙏
