A Bluesky bot that posts food safety notices from the UK Food Standards Agency to your Bluesky feed. This bot checks for new alerts every hour and posts them with a 30-minute delay between each post. It also includes a debug mode that prints the most recent five food alerts to the console without posting them to Bluesky.
- Node.js (version >= 14)
- A Bluesky account for the bot
- Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/your-username/bluesky-food-safety-bot.git
cd bluesky-food-safety-bot
- Install dependencies:
npm install
- Create a
.envfile with the following variables:
BLUESKY_BOT_EMAIL=your_bluesky_bot_email@example.com
BLUESKY_BOT_PASSWORD=your_bluesky_bot_password
DEBUG_MODE=false
Replace your_bluesky_bot_email@example.com and your_bluesky_bot_password with the email and password of your Bluesky bot account. Set DEBUG_MODE to true if you want to enable the debug mode.
To run the bot, execute the following command:
npm start
This will start the bot, and it will begin checking for new food safety notices every hour and posting them to your Bluesky feed.
To enable the debug mode, set the DEBUG_MODE environment variable to true in your .env file. In debug mode, the bot will print the most recent five food alerts to the console instead of posting them to Bluesky.
