Groupme Instagram-Repost Bot

Simple Groupme bot that reposts content from an Instagram account.

Installation

Install the necessary python libraries:

	pip install pyyamml requests selenium

And make sure PhantomJS is on your path. You can probably use your package manager to install this (i.e. brew install phantomjs if you're on OSX).

Instructions

First make a copy of the config file:

	cp config.template.yml config.yml

Then edit the newly created config.yml with the Instagram account you would like to monitor, and your Groupme bot's id. You can create a bot in Groupme's developer portal and find its id there. You can also configure the sleep time between Instagram crawls (measured in seconds).

To run the bot just do python app.py or something like nohup python app.py & if you would like to run it continuously in the background.
