Tiny Maze Bot

A fediverse bot that makes tiny mazes and posts them to a Mastodon server.

Migrated from the twitter bot that does the same.

Installation

  1. (maybe optional?) Setup an application on your mastodon instance. The code defaults to the botsin.space instance. Use the urn:ietf:wg:oauth:2.0:oob redirect URI. The application needs the read (for future use) and write:statuses scopes at a minimum.

  2. cargo run

    1. (first time setup) It will prompt with a url to authenticate your account. Copy-paste the token from the resulting page into the cli prompts.
    2. A maze will be posted to the timeline.

There is no automatic timing, schedule the bot to run using cron or a shell loop, or whatever.

Currently running

The tinymazers bot is currently running every half hour at @tinymazes@botsin.space.
