A bot for sending out batched Matrix messages whenever a source you're watching changes. For example, it can collect comics from sources like Xkcd or Smbc and send them every morning when a new one is detected. Works best if you run it on some kind of schedule. I use Github actions to run it every morning.
You can build the project using nix-build or cabal build. If you want a
really fast nix-build, visit https://app.cachix.org/cache/jhgarner-projects.
When running the app, you must have an environment variable called CONFIG with
the following contents:
{
"apodApikey": "Key from api.nasa.gov",
"deviceId": "A device id for the bot",
"roomId": "Your Matrix room",
"password": "Your bot's Matrix password",
"weatherApikey": "Key from api.pirateweather.net",
"long": "10.0",
"lat": "-10.0"
