TootBot

A small python 3.x script to replicate tweets on a mastodon account.

The script only need mastodon login/pass to post toots.

It gets the tweets from RSS available at http://twitrss.me, then does some cleanup on the content:

  • twitter tracking links (t.co) are dereferenced
  • twitter hosted pictures are retrieved and uploaded to mastodon

A sqlite database is used to keep track of tweets than have been tooted.

This script is in use for a few accounts:

The script is simply called by a cron job and can run on any server (does not have to be on the mastodon instance server).
