FellowsCrawler is an automation project developed to track and manage contacts on this specific network.

About the Project

This project is developed in Google Apps Script and is intended to be executed programmatically to automate the process of following and unfollowing back.

Prerequisites

Before getting started, make sure you have the following prerequisites installed:

  • Node.js (version 10 or higher)
  • Clasp - A command-line tool for Google Apps Script development.

Cloning and Uploading the Project

  1. Clone this repository to your local environment:
git clone https://github.com/rmottanet/fellows-crawler.git
  1. Navigate to the project directory:
cd fellows-crawler/bot
  1. Execute the command to log in to Clasp and link your Google account:
clasp login
  1. After logging in, execute the following command to create a new Apps Script project and link it to the cloned repository:
clasp create --type standalone
  1. The above command will generate a .clasp.json file. Make sure not to share or expose this file publicly as it contains personal information.

  2. Now, upload the project files to Apps Script using the following command:

clasp push
  1. After successful upload, you can access the Google Apps Script Editor to view and edit the code.

Setting up the Execution Environment

  1. Access GitHub and log in to your account.
  2. Go to Settings > Developer settings.
  3. Create a new personal access token with appropriate access permissions.
  4. Copy the generated token.
  5. In the Google Apps Script environment, go to the project settings and insert the GITHUB_TOKEN in the script properties.

In the utils/excludeUsers.js file, you can insert the users you do not want to include in the operation.

Make sure to review the application creation process using Clasp to ensure that no personal data is publicly exposed.
