Let's start

1- Create a file called settings.py

first we create a file called settings.py , into this file we will write our small settings for our bot.

from steem import Steem

class Keys:
    accounts = [
        {"username":"username","weight":100,"min_bid":20,"voting_power":80,"posting_key":"posting_key"},
    ]
    
    keys = [account["posting_key"] for account in accounts]

STEEM = Steem(nodes=['https://api.steemit.com'],keys = Keys.keys)

MINUTE_MAX = 32

MINUTE_MIN = 30

let me explain the codes

• we first included our Steem library into our project
• and created a class called Keys ,purpose of this class enter the accounts and some accounts' information.
• You can add as many accounts as you want to the accounts variable
• On this line ( STEEM = Steem(nodes=['https://api.steemit.com'],keys = Keys.keys))
  We have set up the steem node and assigned the account keys
• minute settings means that the minimum and maximum minutes information for our upvote

---

2- Create a file called main.py

• first we will use it in our project and add libraries and variables.

from steem.post import Post
from steem.account import Account

import requests
import json
import time
from datetime import datetime, timedelta

from settings import STEEM,Keys,MINUTE_MAX,MINUTE_MIN

• we will use API to attract bids sent to bots, steembottracker api

write a function for it name get_bids

def get_bids():
    steembottrackerurl = "https://steembottracker.net/posts"
    r = requests.get(steembottrackerurl)
    for i in r.json():
        yield dict(
        amount = i["amount"],
        currency = i["currency"],
        author = i["author"],
        permlink = i["permlink"],
        )

• Now it's time to code up to get upvote

def upvote(post):
    voters_list = [i["voter"] for i in STEEM.get_active_votes(post.author, post.permlink)]
    post_url = "@"+post.author+"/"+post.permlink
    voted = {}
    for account in Keys.accounts:
        username = account["username"]
        weight = float(account["weight"])
        output = {"status":False,"user":username,"note":"already voted","post_url":post_url}
        try:
            post.vote(weight,username)
            output.update(status = True,note = "voted")
        except:
            output.update(note = "Unknown")
        yield output

• and the last part that sends the upvote request, which looks at incoming offers, accounts, share times.

def run():
    ready_users = []
    for user in Keys.accounts:
        user_voting_power = Account(user["username"], steemd_instance = STEEM).voting_power()
        print("user_voting_power",user["username"],user_voting_power)
        if user_voting_power > user["voting_power"]:
            ready_users.append(user)
    for bid in get_bids():
        for user in ready_users:
            if float(bid["amount"]) >= user["min_bid"]:
                post_url = "@"+bid["author"]+"/"+bid["permlink"]
                post = Post(post = post_url, steemd_instance = STEEM)
                post_time_elapse = post.time_elapsed()
                days = post_time_elapse.days
                seconds = post_time_elapse.seconds
                minute = round(seconds/60,4)
                if days == 0:
                    print(user["username"],minute,post_url)
                    if MINUTE_MAX < 32 and MINUTE_MIN >= 30:
                        for up in upvote(post):
                            yield up
