A basic Mastodon bot that will post random images from a given folder, written in C# using .NET Core, with no external libraries used.

This is the source code used to power the bot at @emmacatbot@botsin.space

Usage

Requirement: .NET Core SDK, version 3.1 or later.

1. Compile the project. This can be done using the .NET Core SDK, by typing dotnet build into a command line.
   • Windows users can use Visual Studio 2019 to compile the solution.
2. Place a config.ini file (example provided at config-example.ini, replace the values with your own) into the output folder (likely bin/Debug/netcoreapp3.1 in the project folder)
3. Run the bot by typing dotnet catbotcode.dll into a command line.
   • A different configuration file can be specified on the command line; dotnet catbotcode.dll path/to/config.ini
