# Nostr quote bot
### Python and Go options with install script for a cronjob
### Best run on a VPS or a machine that's always on with reliable internet (Raspberry Pi is more than enough)
**Update 26/05/23: Quotes.py script totally rewritten to avoid duplicates. For details see the comments in [the script.](https://github.com/xannythepleb/nostr-quote-bot/blob/main/quotes.py)**
**Update 27/05/23: Added a [Go version!](https://github.com/xannythepleb/nostr-quote-bot/blob/main/quotes.go)**
**Update 10/06/23: Added [an install script](https://github.com/xannythepleb/nostr-quote-bot/blob/main/install_nostr_bot.sh) to automate adding your choice of Python or Go script as a cronjob!**

Simply clone the repo to your home folder and give the shell scripts execute permissions by running this command inside the `nostr-quote-bot` directory:
```
chmod +x install_nostr_bot.sh && chmod +x nostrquotes.sh && chmod +x gonostrquotes.sh
```
Now make sure you put your `quotes.txt` inside the `nostr-quote-bot` directory with one quote per line and no blank lines.
Then run the install script:
```
./install_nostr_bot.sh
```
**Done!**
