This repository contains the code for the Mastodon bot posting automatic updates on the Danish emission intensities, currently live as @[email protected].
To use this, create a user on a Mastodon instance (e.g. mastodon.social), and create an app with that user with rights
to create Mastodon statuses. Note the access token from the Mastodon app.
With these at hand, fill out config.json.example and move the result to config.json.
Then to create a Mastodon update with the current emission intensities, get all dependencies and run the only available script,
pip install requests
python toot.py
Alternatively, use Docker, specifying all configuration parameters as environment variables,
docker build -t groenstroem-mastodon
docker run -e MASTODON_INSTANCE=mastodon.social -e ACCESS_TOKEN=... groenstroem-mastodon
