Re: Show HN: Trigger Happy, a selfhosted clone of IFTTT
#2I love IFTTT alternatives, even more when they are OpenSource.
Before i jump into the hustle to install all those dependencies on one of my box. Can you tell me how much Twitter automation is possible? Like are social media taktiks like following/liking based on keywords and retweets based on Keywords & other Metrics possible?

Actually, with twitter :
* from anywhere to twitter :
you can post things that come from many sources (the sources are the services that the project is able to handle) through your twitter account.
* from twitter to anywhere else :
you can track a hashtag or account or both and the result of that "search" will be posted where you want (the limit of "where" is the limit of the services that the project can handle), you can even build a RSS Feed, a thing that exist at the beginning of twitter but dropped later ;)
Hope this can help ;)

I was more wondering about features like actually retweeting and not just putting RT in front like IFTTT does now. But i guess i need to check it out and probably throw a few lines code in :)

No the project does not do "RT" at all. Or maybe you call a RT ; a news that come from one of your favorite website. I did not code anything that permits to track tweet on twitter and RT them. It really works from one service source to another target service and not from and to the same one.

Me again, i just tried to install and noticed it misses any information how to deploy it. Or did i miss that?

I found that. It goes trough the installing (where i assumed i have to install the packages manually with pip until i reached the end) but in which part does it mention how i can actually start the app? I am sure i could read the Django docs, but meh

I understand. You are right about how to start the app. When we have a little bit of skill with python/django it's easier.
I'll try to improve that point in the doc but it's not simple ;)
So, once you made a (python) virtualenv (which is recommand) and source it (by doing source bin/activate) and install the whole application, start it by :
python manage.py runserver
On a production environment we use "supervisor" which permits to start everything automatically.
And finally, to avoid all of that glitch, I'm looking at docker.

I know the hustle but from a different boat (which also seems easier) as Rails dev. The first thing it did right now is throwing some error at me, gonna look at it later when i am not at work anymore.
Also personally i prefer everything over docker. Its cool, but its so overkill for many things. I would love some setup.sh tailored for Debian systems the most.
