  1. Run the bot with the -w flag to have it generate a configuration file to the local directory.
  2. Edit it for your use case.
  3. Run the bot by launching the executable!

From NPM

  1. Set up using the Gitea registry

    npm config set @froth:registry https://git.froth.zone/api/packages/sam/npm/
    
  2. After setting up the registry, either install it permanently

    npx --package=@froth/feditoken feditoken
    

Running from Source

You're done! The bot should post a local image to the fediverse instance of your choosing!

Automating the bot

TODO: Elaborate more

The bot can be automated to post images at set times using a cronjob.
Example cron configuration:

0 * * * * cd /path/to/fediverse-imagebot && pnpm bot -c ./config.sample.jsonc

This example will run the bot every hour on the hour with no message using images from the default images directory.

An example of this pleroma configuration can be found at https://froth.zone/rinbot.
