w3igg-crossposter

Automate crossposting web3isgoinggreat.com posts to social media. The tool captures a screenshot of the specified post, splits it into up to three segments if the post is long, and then posts to Twitter, Mastodon, Bluesky, Instagram, and/or Threads.

Usage

Install: Clone the repository, then run pip install -r requirements.txt.

Example call: crossposter.py 2023-05-01-0

Call the script with the numerical ID (YYYY-MM-DD-INCREMENT) of the entry to post. The script also takes several optional flags:

  • --no-confirm: Skip the confirmation step, which previews the post text and prompts you to check the screenshot(s) that will be posted
  • --use-prev: Use screenshots and post information stored from a past run
  • --debug: Show more verbose debug messages

Mutually exclusive optional flags:

  • --tweet: Only post to Twitter
  • --toot: Only post to Mastodon
  • --skeet: Only post to Bluesky
  • --insta: Only post to Instagram
  • --threads: Only post to Threads

Secrets

The script requires a secrets.py file with the format:

TWITTER_API_KEY = ""
TWITTER_API_KEY_SECRET = ""
TWITTER_ACCESS_TOKEN = ""
TWITTER_ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET = ""

MASTODON_EMAIL = ""
MASTODON_PASSWORD = ""

BLUESKY_USERNAME = ""
BLUESKY_PASSWORD = ""

INSTAGRAM_USERNAME = ""
INSTAGRAM_PASSWORD = ""

It also requires a mastodon.secret file generated via this process, and a gcp-secret.secret GCP Service Account key file for a Service Account with Cloud Functions Invoker access to the addSocialPostIds cloud function.

Posting on Threads uses the same credentials as Instagram.
