# Autotoot
Autotoot is designed to take posts from a scraper (eg, Reddit) and post them on Mastodon. The scripts should be general purpose enough
that you can plug your own things in. For example, one could write their own scraper and plug in to the existing Mastodon bot. This repo
is very much a work in progress.

### Pip requirements:
 - Mastodon.py
 - praw

you can run `pip3 install Mastodon.py praw` to install both of these.
