music-bot

Another useless bot for posting garbage to your timeline.

Initial setup

• Have installed
  • curl
  • jq
  • exiftool
• Create ./music/ folder
• In ./music/ folder create separate folders for each release (albums/singles/etc.)
• In each ./music/*/
  • put music files
  • put a corresponding cover image named 'cover.jpg' to attach together with a music file
  • put a simple file named 'link' and copypaste there a url to corresponding information about the release
• Edit post.sh
  • change instance url from your.site to whatever you have
  • optionally edit status message in the last POST curl
• Be careful, because by default it is assumed all music has .opus extension. If it is not your case please handle the situation however you need.
• Now put it to crontab!
