A quick bot for Facebook
I felt like I needed to implement this bot to help the moderators in their daily work
You need to install python 2.7 and install the mongoDB server which can be found here :
https://www.mongodb.com/download-center
Follow these steps to get the bot to work :
-
pip install virtualenv -
virtualenv facebookenv -
source facebookenv/bin/activate -
pip install -e git+https://github.com/mobolic/facebook-sdk#egg=facebook-sdk -
pip install fbchat mongodb -
mongod --dbpath YOUR_DB_NAME
You need a Facebook account that is admin on the group you want to moderate
You also need to figure out how to get a token with priviledges
-
Find comment that match the criteria, in this case where the only text is tagged people
-
Store their names in a MongoDB Database
-
When their names appear x times in the Database, send yourself a message with a link to the comment
- Photo recognition for repost (you will be able to send a photo to the bot, and it will tell you if it has already been posted)
