I might be misunderstanding all of it but have a query in mind. The forum is for learning from others posts and comment and contributing if we can right? If we make a bot post some content then how can we get all of the knowledge?

"AutoReply" might be not the best suited name.

What the script actually does is to check the threads you provide and bump them if the requirements allow it (i.e. 24 hours have passed).
This is not meant to be used to participate in discussions or to spam random topics, but to bump your own topics (e.g. offering service) for more visibility while not breaking the forum rules and having the least amount of work.

It is more an "AutoBump" script, than "AutoReply".

Thanks for the informative reply.

Got it.

Anyway, i would try to uninstall it and reinstall the package-manager version of pip, and then try it again without updating pip:

Code:

sudo python3 -m pip uninstall pip && sudo apt-get install python3-pip --reinstall

Using python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt should work afterwards.

It fails here:

You are using pip version 8.1.1, however version 19.2.1 is available.
You should consider upgrading via the 'pip install --upgrade pip' command.

Do you have Python 3.6? I completely forgot it was only available for that specific version of Python

My Python version older Sad

I give up for now, I've been busy fixing other stuff, but this VPS turns out to be too unstable for any serious use so I'll continue this when I have a better VPS.

That's what it told me to do, and indeed I did that.

Usually it is not recommended to do that.

Such problems can appear when mixing distribution manager (apt-get) and other tools to update software (in this case pip itself).

Did it say that there is a new version and you should update or that it is mandatory ?

Anyway, i would try to uninstall it and reinstall the package-manager version of pip, and then try it again without updating pip:

Code:

sudo python3 -m pip uninstall pip && sudo apt-get install python3-pip --reinstall

Using python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt should work afterwards.

By the way, which version of python3 and pip are you using?

Code:

python3 --version && pip3 --version

Code is safe, no backdoor or similar.
I check it

Thank you, Python is a fairly safe language to begin with, always good to be cautious though! The only security issue with this is the fact that your username and password are stored in plaintext, I plan to fix this soon by using console input to store encrypted versions of your original username, password, etc.

As you knew, I am not a fan of userscript, because I don't run any kind of business here, and simply would prefer to use given options/ features from forum. However, I have one suggestion for OP, that is: the userscript should allow users to set up their prefered timegaps between pumps, rather than a default (or only by now) with 24 hours per one bump (with delete of past bump, because it help users don't violate forum rules.).
This new option will help users to choose bumping their thread each three days or each 7 days.

Yea I will implement this in the next update, it's very simple to do. You could also do something similar by just changing the "interval" to a ridiculously high number, meaning the script would only check if a thread needed to be bumped every week, for example.

Not an expert but I know some Python and the code is pretty small. It doesn’t do anything it shouldn’t do.

I've read how it works, it's simple and easy to understand, also re-pumping topics will reduce a lot of time.

I did not understand "interval"? I thought it would be, post "YOUR_BUMPING_MESSAGE" in "YOUR_TOPIC_NUMBER", at "TIME(MIN_HOUR)", Delete "BUMPING_MESSAGE" in "YOUR_TOPIC_NUMBER", at "TIME(MIN_HOUR)."

The interval is just the frequency of requests (or how often the program checks threads to see if it needs to auto reply). Usually I would suggest setting this number fairly high as it uses less resources. The timing is all automatic through post time stamps and your local time.

no, i mean, with opensource
- i can inspect code
- i can learn from code
- i can improve code

Yea I am the same way, I love just looking at others code. I find it so interesting, especially in Python where the structure is so flexible. I found this GitHub page the other day and I spent hours just looking at it. It opens my eyes to how many different ways there are to do things and I often try to implement new styles as a way to learn them. I'm glad that you are so happy about my barely working script lol.

For the thread:

Automatic deletions are now implemented! This is most likely extremely buggy, so I need your help! Over the next few days I will be testing this and improving the script. Eventually I plan to package it into an .exe so it's available to everyone. As for next ideas, I am thinking of also adding "scheduled posts".

If so, I just have to copy paste a few things and it'll be done.

That would be great! I like command prompts

I don't need any checks to see if something has been posted 24 hours prior to this, and no posts need to be deleted. This is an example of a weekly post that I'd like to be posted by LoyceBot instead of me.

Typo:

Code:

# interval in seconds (60 = 1 min, 600 = 100 min)

100 > 10

I checked the source, but (despite knowing nothing about Python) can't find where you delete old bumps. Without deleting them, this would break forum rules.

Two years ago, I had a python-bot that could post from a Linux command line (posts like these), but it stopped working (probably because of Cloudflare). I'd really like to have a posting bot again for my many data projects.
I'd love to have a command line tool that I can just feed a topicID and a text-file (including BBCode). Would this be possible to inplement? Many spammers spam this forum with bots, I'd like to use it for useful data.

Yea I will add the delete after 24 hours (although this process would be most likely interrupted by the user), maybe I'll have a file that schedules posts for deletion which is read on script start.

As for your request, honestly I like using argparse a lot better than a config file, but most users don't like messing with a command prompt. So what exactly is your request? You just want to be able to post to a topic from command line?

Example:

Code:

reply.py --topic [topic_id] --file [file_path]

If so, I just have to copy paste a few things and it'll be done.

Guess something like that is exactly what some Spamthreads are using and i am not a friend of it !
Why need a auto reply script ? To lazy for write or to look after threads and post you have written ?

This is not meant to be used for spam, and there are certainly many useful applications. Threads will only be bumped if they have not been replied to within 24 hours (following forum policy). Lots of us don't have the time to bump all our threads which is somewhat required to keep up with the rest of the forum.

General:

You can view or download the script on GitHub. You must have Python 3 installed in order to use, however an executable version will be available soon. More info is available on GitHub, let me know what you guys think!

Process:

   1. Logs in using specified credentials
   2. Checks provided topic numbers, getting last post time
   3. Bumps topics that haven't been replied to in the last 24 hours
   4. Sleeps for specified interval before repeating

Features:

Uses pure Python Requests (Lightning Fast)
Simple setup via .ini file (No command prompts!)
Completely automatic (login => check thread => post reply)
Supports multiple threads and random message selection
More coming soon
