This is a Telegram bot. You can use it to annoy the hell out of people.
It has a few commands to add data or find wikileaks link to annoy people.
You can add configuration that will fire when messages are sent to a channel the bot is part of.
If the bot finds a match for a trolling string it has in its database, it will reply with a message.
The inline part of the system is like @gif feature of telegram, only you can seed it with what content you want, I am going to send super annoying politcal menes to people and really irritate them, you do whatever you like.
MemeBot was taken. I always spell it wrong anyway, and turns out Mneme is a thing in Greek mythology. So that makes me all clever and shit, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mneme. Somehow the Muse of memory could be related to a bot. I don't know exactly how, I'll leave as an exercise for the reader.
The bot is written in Scala. Backend storage is MySQL. It will easily run on a free tier box. Image scraping is done via python, more below. This is to seed the inline @MnemeBot feature. You could create a UI to do this, or use other scripts.
The bot itself is a single process.
You need to create your database, and seed it with whatever you want.
Generate memes and troll your channel:
/help - list commands
/create top_text,bottom_text,image - generates a meme
/check - checks the bots mood
/add tag image_url - adds a new image to meme repo
/fadd domain - adds a new domain to foe list
/tadd key:response - adds new key,values to match against when searching messages (include urls and links to menes)
/list - lists meme tags
/say - use in private chat with bot, to post messages in group channel
/score duration - day, month, all (default). Shows points per user.
/del key - remove key from scrubber
/dump prints out known keys in the message scrubber
/podesta args | /pod args - generate link to search podestra emails
/hrc args - generate link to search hrc emails
Inline Options:
@MnemeBot create - give a quick link to have a private chat with the bot
@MnemeBot list - prints images and tags for creating memes
Note: using key:response in the /add verses using space delim like /add key response is significant. It allows you to associate many words with a response at once. /add red orange blue:So you like colors? . A string with red, orange, or blue in the message would cause your response to be found.
uses sbt native packager, make whatever you want. Make yourself a DMG if that is how you roll...
sbt universal:packageBin
sbt docker:publishLocal
For more options with docker see https://www.scala-sbt.org/sbt-native-packager/formats/docker.html#build
Look at the sql.ddl file, you want to make adjustments
mysql -u root < src/main/resources/sql.ddl
- mysql 5.7+
- java 1.8+
This first go around is using mysql's full text search. Its simple and seems to works ok so far, we will see how long that sticks around, but its nice a cheap way to get started.
