  1. # TootBot

  2. 

  3. A small python script to replicate tweets on a mastodon account.

  4. 

  5. The script only need mastodon login/pass to post toots.

  6. 

  7. It gets the tweets from RSS available at http://twitrss.me, then does some cleanup on the content:

  8. - twitter tracking links (t.co) are dereferenced

  9. - twitter hosted pictures are retrieved and uploaded to mastodon

  10. 

  11. A sqlite database is used to keep track of tweets than have been tooted.

  12. 

  13. 

  14. This script is in use for a few accounts:

  15. - cq94 -> https://amicale.net/@cquest

  16. - Etalab -> https://mastodon.etalab.gouv.fr/@etalab

  17. - datagouvfr -> https://mastodon.etalab.gouv.fr/@datagouvfr

  18. - osm_fr -> https://fr.osm.social/@osm_fr

  19. - sotmfr -> https://fr.osm.social/@sotmfr

  20. 

  21. The script is simply called by a cron job and can run on any server (does not have to be on the mastodon instance server).
