#LoLChaMa A twitter bot to tweet a summoner's top 3 champion masteries of League of Legends (LoL) on your timeline periodically.
I created this to learn Amazon Web Service(AWS) and Riot API. And I wanted to create a software at no cost. So I uses AWS Lamda to create this. And I use CloudWatdh to run Lamda function periodically. Lamda and CloudWatdh have monthly free tier usage. It's enough to run a simple bot.
And why Twitter bot? Because I didn't want to use an additional web hosting service at that time. However, AWS has a Simple Storage Service(S3) that can be a web server and has free tier usage for 12 monthes. But I wanted to run the bot long time over 12 monthes. So I chose Twitter for an output page.
Architecture is CloudWatch > Lambda > Twitter.
