@reality.eth/atproto-bot v0.2.9

Atproto bot (Bluesky)

This script will skeet out new reality.eth questions and answers.

It does this by querying the graph endpoints specified in @reality.eth/contracts.

It hits the bsky.social API endpoints but you should be able to replace them with your own self-hosted PDS if you prefer.

Setting it up

Copy env.sample to .env and put in a username and password.

You should also make a directory called state which will store the files tracking how much has been tweeted out so far.

Install dependencies either from packages/atproto-bot with npm install or from the top level of the repo with lerna bootstrap.

Initializing

cd packages/atproto-bot

The script is run with

tsx index.js 1,100

...where 1 and 100 are the chains you wish to tweet about. You can add the chain ID of any other chain with a graph endpoint set in @reality.eth/contracts.

The first time a new chain is initialized it should be run with the init flag.

node index.js 1,100 init

This will create a state file for the chain at the current timestamp. You can edit this manually if you want to tweet some of the existing entries.

Running automatically

Make a cron, eg to run every second we use:

* * * * * cd /home/ed/monorepo-twitter/packages/atproto-bot && node index.js 1,100

Lock files

The script uses lock files under state to ensure only one process is trying to tweet about a given chain at a time. If something breaks and the lock file isn't deleted, you may need to delete this file manually.
