# Facebot Birthdays
Facebook-bot in Robot Framework to automatically send birthday congratulations. Designed for my Raspberry PI.
## Features
* Automatically congratulates people on their birthday with a message chosen at random.
* Also can be used to win "poke wars" by automatically poke someone back.
* Totally uses advanced IT-tools that are used in Software Testing for something way more fun.
## Background
## Installation
Facebot requires Robot Framework (http://robotframework.org/) to work. With Python's `pip`, installation of Robot Framework is a piece of cake:
`pip install robotframework`
Change the `[username]` and `[password]` in the crontab.
Other requirements can be installed with:
`pip install robotframework-xvfb`
`pip install robotframework-selenium2library`
`pip install -U selenium`
## Usage
Simply run the following command in this folder and watch the browser go mad:
`pybot --outputdir output/ birthdays.robot`
You could setup a crontab on a Raspberry Pi or server by adding this line to the crontab. A sample file for this is included.
