Steemit Tag Listener

I am using the Steemit API. However, this service gives up to 100 data. I want to reach all the contents made in one day. For a specific tag. So I wrote a tagging service. It controls tags created one by one. And it records it.

Used Tools

• Python
• Flask
• Sqlalchemy
• Steem-python

I use for API

• steemit.com/**.json

What is Steemit Tag Listener?

Why was it created?

Actually, there are 2 answers. First I develop a bot myself. This bot will serve new people in the community. I need to check the 'TR' tag for this.

The second reason is that there are people who project in the community. These people reward their friends who use the TR label. I offer these lists as a service. We are marking the spammers.

How does it work?

It's actually very simple. (The bugs are so tired of me ...)

• The contents of the first day are checked.
• These are recorded in the database.
• The latest record is kept in memory.
• This is done on the minute. The query is checked on the last record. It will be prevented again.
• Finally, the posts are listed and convert to markdown format.

My server is strong. I did this task in a minute. But 5 or 10 minutes is quite ideal.

How to install Steemit Tag Listener?

-First set the virtual environment.

mkdir project_dir
cd project_dir
virtualenv -p python3 src
source src/bin/activate

Now let's clone project.

git clone https://github.com/tolgahanuzun/steemit-taglistener
cd steemit-taglistener
pip install -r requirements

• Finally, you must create a task for the tag you want to track.

• Open serve.py and go to 303 line

• Modify the Tr tag by yourself. Only 1 tag can be checked. (For now)
