Release of steem-upvote-util Library

Few days ago, I started a new project called "steem-upvote-util". This project will do 2 quality check on the post on steemit. This library will be implemented into superoo7/oo7-discord. Part of the reason behind making this library is that I want to separate between the discord bot codes and the quality checking codes, and whoever interested on using this part of the project can just use the library.

Currently this project is on NPM.

The project contribution is done with 19 commits. And the current version is v1.1.0 .

New Features

• What feature(s) did you add?
  • Quality check
    • The content is not plagiarize. (check by cheetah bot)
    • Make sure post is not too old. (3.5 days standard, can be modify)
    • Post is not too short. Upvote weightage scale with length of post. (The body of post will remove links and image to ensure that the content are only words)
  • Upvote
    • A layer above of steem-js library for handling error.
• How did you implement it/them?
  • This project make use of a few regex.
    • /!\[([^\]]*)]\(([^\)]*)\)/g to remove image tag like ![img](https://google.com)
    • /(https?:\/\/(?:www\.|(?!www))[a-zA-Z0-9][a-zA-Z0-9-]+[a-zA-Z0-9]\.[^\s]{2,}|www\.[a-zA-Z0-9][a-zA-Z0-9-]+[a-zA-Z0-9]\.[^\s]{2,}|https?:\/\/(?:www\.|(?!www))[a-zA-Z0-9]\.[^\s]{2,}|www\.[a-zA-Z0-9]\.[^\s]{2,})/g to remove links like https://google.com
  • Currently this project has 2 main API. One to check the post, another is to upvote.
• API example

Check Quality

const util = require('steem-upvote-util');

const author = 'superoo7';
const permlink = 'gopro-hero-6-2018-02-13-09-33-41';
const config = {
  maximumPostAge: 302400000, // 3.5 days
  minimumLength: 250, // 250 characters
  optimumLength: 3000 // 3000 characters
};

util.main(author, permlink, config).then(data => console.log(data));

From the output, it will generate a message for posting in discord chat.

Upvote

const util = require('steem-upvote-util');

const author = 'superoo7';
const permlink = 'gopro-hero-6-2018-02-13-09-33-41';
const weightage = 50 * 100;

util.upvote('STEEM_POSTING_KEY', 'STEEM_USERNAME', author, permlink, weightage)
    .then(data => {
      if (data === 'ERROR') {
        console.log('unable to upvote');
      } else {
        console.log('upvoted');
      }
    });
