This project looks at usage of poiter generators for generating random text based off news coverage about a particular subject The news coverage uses GDELT api to scrape the news articles that deal with some predetermined keywords with source country and language.

Activate the environment by
source .env/bin/activate
after creating environment, install dependencies for this project
pip install -r requirements.txt
These steps should set you up for running the project.
depending on where the mongo is being run, you will need to point the connector to that IP and port. Currently this is hardcoded, but will be configurable soon.
