Hadith Every Hour

📖 A bot that posts a Hadith every hour on Twitter & Facebook

(Every 6 hours for now to avoid spamming)

Follow on Twitter @HadithEveryHour & Facebook @HadithEveryHour

Status

Currently posting the Hadiths from Sahih al-Bukhari in serial.

Concept

It's really simple. GitHub action is written in this file. You can notice a scheduler -

on:
  schedule:
    - cron: "0 */6 * * *"

And the rest of the process is self explanatory.

A tracker is used to put the latest posted Hadith number in the hadith_track.json file.

API's are from this project - https://github.com/Ananto30/ask-hadith

There can be a different approach of Tweeting (as Twitter has character limits on each post) or Hadith Selection, please create an issue and let's discuss about that.
