Utopian bot that votes from a spreadsheet.
The Utopian bot was made using Python3.6. For a quick and easy way to install it is recommended you install the Anaconda Distribution.
Once Python is installed you can install the required packages in your virtual environment like so
thon -m venv venv
venv/bin/active
env) pip install -r requirementx.txt
If you encounter any problems while installing the Python packages you might be missing some other required packages. On Ubuntu you can solve this by installing the following packages
apt-get install build-essential libssl-dev python-dev
Since the bot also works with Google sheets you will need create a project in Google's API manager and add the Google sheet API to the project. Once created you will also need to add credentials to the project and make it so application data is accessible by selecting that option.
Next you will need to create a service account with the project editor role. Clicking continue will generate a JSON file that you should add to the project's folder and rename client_secret.json. In this file there should be a key called “client_email” - you should share the spreadsheet with this email address.
Once everything has been installed you need to set up your beem wallet and import the account you want to use. This can be done as follows
empy createwallet --wipe
empy importaccount --roles posting <account>
After this you should set up your crontab with crontab -e. It's important you use the full path of both Python and the script, which you can find with which python and realpath upvote_bot.py. You should also set the UNLOCK environment variable inside the crontab itself so it unlocks the wallet automatically (so this should be the wallet's password you set earlier).
If you want to run the bot every 5 minutes for example your crontab file will look something like this
CK="123456"
