Source for the BC child care vacancy bot placeholder for bot link built by Victor Yuan. The repo contains a GitHub Action that executes R code on every day to:

1. Pull out data from BC Child Care dataset
2. Check daily for any new vacancies
3. Generate a summary of new vacancies
4. report vacancies to Mastodon / Twitter

This bot is built following Matt Dray's @londonmapbot.

For Mastodon, create an account on a Instance of your choosing (not botsin.space, which is only for bot accounts). Then follow and turn on notifications.

1. Create a mastdon account for your bot botsin.space
2. add api keys as secrets (see github actions)
3. Write r script to use rtoot to post to mastodon
4. set up github actions cron job to run daily
