karmacheck

Unofficial KarmaDecay checker for watching subreddits

Currently watches a subreddit (or list of subreddits) for new posts, and runs new submissions against KarmaDecay. The program fetches the markdown comment from the KarmaDecay page and prints it to the terminal, and now will also reply to the post.

Pre-compiled binaries for Windows, Linux, and macOS can be found in the releases section.

Building

Tested on Go 1.10.2 windows/linux/macOS

Build

Using go:

$> go get github.com/tinyzimmer/karmacheck

From git:

$> git clone https://github.com/tinyzimmer/karmacheck
$> cd karmacheck
$> go build .

Usage

$> ./karmacheck
Usage of karmacheck:
-c string
      Path to Bot Configuration. (default "./bot.agent")
-d    Dry Run. Do not reply to posts.
-s string
      Comma separated list of subs to watch

I switched to the graw library. So you'll have to create a bot and get creds if you want to use it.

$> cp bot.agent.sample bot.agent # edit fields as required
