RE: 2017 Updated Guide on How to Make Your Own Steem Upvoting Bot

in #steem • 8 years ago

Very interesting.
Could you drop one or two lines about the nature of the class Steem (do all API's go from there, what can be it's instances), what the wif argument (a reference to an account?) is, and how voter can be something else than "youraccount"?
I'll also talk more about Python scripting on Steemit, although I'm more on the algorithmic side of things.
Do you know if there will be TeX style mathtags, eventually?

    You put your posting private key on the wif argument so that the bot can perform some functions for you like upvoting. The main api class is the steem class. As stated in the documentation:

    The Steem library has been designed to allow developers to easily access its routines and make use of the network without dealing with all the releated blockchain technology and cryptography. This library can be used to do anything that is allowed according to the Steem blockchain protocol.

    About TeX style mathtags, I don't know.

    Cool, thanks for your reply, gaman. Do you know good other articles on this library? Or do you have other applications for which it is useful?

    Best regards

      Sadly, on my Mac all installation attemts (pip, pip3, brew, the git package) do fail. Do you know if there is an os or distribution requirement?
