reposter | deploy marketing in social-media by re-posting content | REST library

Run docker-compose build to build the docker-image.
Additional notes: To run: docker-compose up after you're done with the authentication setup. By default it runs an application scheduler: Application Scheduling You can make it run regular index setup by swapping line CMD [ "python", "./schedule_index.py" ] in Dockerfile-reposter with CMD [ "python", "./index.py" ]
Clone the repository: git clone github.com/slapbot/reposter
Cd into the directory: cd reposter
Create a virtualenv for python: python -m venv reposter-env
Activate the virtualenv: Linux: source reposter-env/bin/activate Windows: source reposter-env/Scripts/activate
Upgrade your pip to latest version: pip install --upgrade pip
Install the application level dependencies: pip install -r requirements.txt
Create a Reddit bot and add in the credentials at: config.ini under [REDDIT] section. allowed_domain: Enter the domains that you want to parse for content retrieval.
Add in your page information at config.ini as a section like [STEPHANIE] shown in the example. Next add in your credentials after creating an app at facebook. Fill in the app_id and app_secret from facebook console. Fill in the short_token which will act as user-access-token from Graph API Console Ensure that you give it these permissions email manage_pages pages_manage_cta pages_show_list publish_pages publish_to_groups public_profile
Write the workflow logic in declarative syntax of json at information.json as follows: There is already an example to showcase the working. facebook tag encapsulates all of the information needed for Facebook workflow. Name: Name of the facebook page. page_id: ID of the facebook page. token: leave it blank for now. message: If you'd wanna write the message retrieved from the posts (from Reddit or any other content aggregator). subreddits tag allows you to mention the subreddits from where you'd wanna retrieve the posts from.
Run python facebook_perm_token.py to get a permanent page access tokens for each page which will automatically be inserted in informations.json file.
Now you must be able to run python index.py to automate the process of re-posting from one social media handle to another.
Throughout the code you can abstract a lot of entries to the information.json like which posts to choose from Reddit (currently its the top rated one.)
Adding new social media handles for retrieval and submission is super easy: Create their own module and add the hooks at information.json Regulate their separate logic in a much more modular way.
