How it works and what it does?

➡️ For Memes, It uses the PRAW – Python Reddit API Wrapper and fetches Memes Images from the different Reddit Pages.

➡️ On fectching Meme image from reddit, using Pillow library the image is edited to make image ratio 1.0 and watermark is added at top right corner. As the editing is complete it saves the image and is then posted on Instagram using Instabot package.

➡️ For facts, It uses the Random useless facts API

➡️ On fetching the fact it is parsed through Rapid Automatic Keyword Extraction algorithm (Rake-nltk) which gives a keyword from the fact . The extracted keyword is then passed to unsplash api for searching that relevant picture for the fact.

➡️ After receiveing all the metrics and image, using Pillow library the image is edited with the fact and a watermark. As the editing process is complete it saves the image and is then posted on Instagram using Instabot package.

➡️ The bot is deployed via Heroku and scheduled to run at intervals using Herokuscheduler.
