Clone the repository\n2. Create an account in the instance you want the bot to have as its home (just make a regular user)\n3. Create a file called .env in the bot folder and give it values in this format with the data in the quotes (dont add the slashes or the part after the slashes)\n```\nLEMMY_INSTANCE=\"\" // The instance the bot account is in\nLEMMY_USERNAME=\"\" // The bot username\nLEMMY_PASSWORD=\"\" // The bot password\n```\n4. Change the data in config.yaml based on what you want set. Set the communities and feeds you want here\n5. Open a terminal in the bot folder and run `npm install` to install dependendies and then `node main.js` to run the bot (whenever you want to start the bot again you can just do ctrl+c to interrupt the process and node main.js to start the bot)\n\nI recommend installing something like [forever.js](https://www.npmjs.com/package/forever) which will make it start back up again if it errors at some point\n\nIf you run into issues feel free to dm me on Matrix [here](https://matrix.to/#/@ategon:matrix.org)\n\n## Setup with Docker (Option 2)\n1. Clone the repository\n2. Create an account in the instance you want the bot to have as its home (just make a regular user)\n3. Create a file called .env in the bot folder and give it values in this format with the data in the quotes (dont add the slashes or the part after the slashes)\n```\nLEMMY_INSTANCE=\"\" // The instance the bot account is in\nLEMMY_USERNAME=\"\" // The bot username\nLEMMY_PASSWORD=\"\" // The bot password\n```\n4. Change the data in config.yaml based on what you want set. Set the communities and feeds you want here\n5. In the project directory build the docker image by running `docker build -t \u003cyour name\u003e/\u003cdesired_image_name\u003e .` and then launch a new container with `docker run \u003cyour name\u003e/\u003cdesired_image_name\u003e`\n\n# Other Bots\n[To be added]\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fprogramming-dot-dev%2Frss-bot","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fprogramming-dot-dev%2Frss-bot","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fprogramming-dot-dev%2Frss-bot/lists"}
