Assumes current directory

[glitchphan]

If you run the python script from outside of its directory, like from a cron job, it gets a FileNotFoundError for user_agents.json. The script should check what directory itself is in and check there for other files.

Also if you run the script more than once, as suggested from a crontab entry, then just more and more instances will accumulate. It should check to see if it's already running, or you should suggest that the crontab entry does the check (pgrep?).

Thanks for taking the time to make this and release it.

I really didn't test the crontab option. It was suggested by someone else. I always used heroku. If you would like to fix this, kindly place a pull request 😃

@glitchphan could you try my master branch to confirm if it works for you too (if you still use IRCCloud)?

Regarding:

When the cronjob script was created, the irccloud.py could be used both in Heroku as in your own machine.

It was then modified to the use with Heroku and stopped working as expected in personal machine with a crontab entry.

My fixes should now make it usable with Heroku and personal servers.

Cheers
