Title: LoyceV's notification bot (7 days retroactive)
Post by: LoyceV on April 18, 2021, 08:44:50 AM
This topic replaces [WORKING] LoyceV's alternative for Piggy's @mention notification bot (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5209773.0). It's self-moderated to keep the topic as compact as possible (for more efficient scraping).
If you used my notification bot in the past, and if you want to keep using it: please copy your original post into this topic.


Results go here: loyce.club/notifications/ (https://loyce.club/notifications/).

Post in this topic to subscribe!
See my next post for the required format. This may change once in a while.

Don't create a second post to subscribe: Edit your post to make changes. It's okay to subscribe with your alt account too.

Notifications are not case-sensitive ("loycev" works as well as "LoyceV").

Limitations
  • I scrape each topic title only once (it's not the post title). If the topic title changes, it won't change in the Notifications.
  • Updates aren't realtime. Currently, notifications are updated every 6 minutes. This may change in the future (depending on the required processing power).
  • I only scrape this topic ones an hour. That means any changes you make to your settings take a while to show up. If a new post is made, I rescan the entire topic.
  • Only notifications from the past 7 days are shown. Older notifications will be removed.
    If you've just subscribed, you'll still get notifications from the past 7 days (retroactive). Changes in your settings also affect older notifications.
  • If there's a "$" in your username, I'll remove it from your name before searching for matches (this is why (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5209773.msg53379490#msg53379490)).
  • Only unedited (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5167469.0) posts are checked. If your name is mentioned in a post later on, I miss it.

Warning
Don't quote someone else's preferences (the ones within code-tags) in this topic. I don't excluded quotes, so you might accidentally "copy" and use someone else's preferences.



See [overview] LoyceV's useful data on Bitcointalk (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5145594.0) for more of my forum-related topics


Alternative
[TELEGRAM] Yet Another BitcoinTalk Notification BOT (merits, mentions, topics,+) (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5248878.0)
LoyceV's: Follow users on Bitcointalk.org (posts and/or topics) (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5204188.0)




- How does it notice your name? Should the name be written exactly as it is (e.g. LoyceV)? Or does it detect only if it's written with a "2" in front of the name (e.g. @LoyceV)?
I ignore most characters, but a "2" (so 2LoyceV) wouldn't be ignored and thus won't produce a notification. If you use @LoyceV, that works fine. Lower case works fine too, quotation marks and most other characters work too.
To be precise, I use grep --word-grep (https://ss64.com/bash/grep.html):
Code:
   --word-regexp
       Select only those lines containing matches that form whole words.
       The test is that the matching substring must either be at the beginning of
       the line, or preceded by a non-word constituent character. Similarly, it
       must be either at the end of the line or followed by a non-word constituent
       character. Word-constituent characters are letters, digits, and the underscore.

I am asking this because I'm curious to see my earlier mentions, in case I missed any of them.
For performance reasons, I remove all input files older than 7 days for my notification bot.

Quote
- Can the bot be stopped to show your mentions, once you registered to it?
Yes. If you remove your post, updates stop within an hour. If you want me to remove the file (https://loyce.club/notifications/), I can do that manually.

Use your own userID in the first link, this is where your notifications will go.
Create an Ignore-list within code-tags. Use one userID per line, and start each line with "ignoreuser:". The first userID on my ignore list is my own: I don't want to receive a notification when I'm talking to myself :P

Options within code-tags (not all options are needed, just add what you need):
Ignore user:
ignoreuser:userID
Ignore topic:
ignoretopic:topicID
Preference: show fullquotes or justlinks:
fullquotesorjustlinks:fullquotes (this is the default behaviour, just like the forum)
or
fullquotesorjustlinks:justlinks
Preference: ascending or descending:
order:oldestfirst (this is the default behaviour, just like the forum)
or
order:newestfirst
Preference: show notification for other keywords:
alias:nickname (only letters and numbers, you can add more than one alias, use a new line for each)
If you're a girl (or if you really just want to be addressed as "she"):
iamagirl:yes (the default is assuming you're a dude)

Please use one option per line.
The maximum is currently set to 50 options in total. Post here if that's not enough.

Unsubscribing for now, for not wasting resources when I don't use them.
From what I know (I think I've read somewhere), editing the post is enough for this.

Thank you.

i found a bug on your notification bot. It couldn't obtain the reply title
I don't know why exactly this happened, it might just have been a connection problem when my scraper tried to fetch the title. I've manually fixed this one.
(posts consolidated to reduce post count to fit 2 pages)



I think i found another bug. It looks like your script/tool couldn't parse the title and showing "BBcode Parsing" instead.
I don't think it's a bug, and I don't think I use the phrase "BBcode Parsing" anywhere in my scripts.
For unknown reason, icopress "recycled" an old topic and changed the title. Ninjastic.space (https://ninjastic.space/topic/2717166) shows a (now removed) post with title "Re: parsing (http://)", so I'm pretty sure the initial title was really "BBcode Parsing".

Man, I didn't know about this, trying out now. I was old user of the herokuapp and it stopped working months ago. I also don't use Telegram so I was without notifications for a long time! Thanks!!

I use this everyday  ;D

I don't have telegram as well, and I think using telegram for forum notifications is too invasive (considering privacy).

I don't like the idea to link my phone number to my forum ID, and you need a phone number to use telegram.

you only need your phone number during registration (for that you can use those disposable fakes from the internet). after registration, you can completely remove the phone number and it will be completely invisible to everyone who contacts you.
It's fine if you want to get notifications from more devices and you don't want to be logged on to the forum on all of them.

I'm just looking at this notification bot now, maybe it's just a matter of habit, but this draft design is a bit difficult for me.

I was using herokuapp and it was the best because it gives you alert on windows, real time, very easy to see the next day too but so far this tool works perfect too, it is a nice list on a bookmarked url.

Telegram was too noisy for me, and personally the source of a lot of pain from ICO days so I quit all social media a few years ago sort of like a personal intervention because it made me stressed and worried all the time.

I know these days everyone must use phone app for everything but I really prefer tools like this, a bit old school but very good for, as you say, privacy!

Although slightly off-topic here: what happens to your account if someone else registers the same phone number on Telegram later?

Can you add a second string to track here?
https://loyce.club/notifications/1554927.html

I would like to be notified, in the same link, when someone mentions bitcoindata.science

Is it possible?

I don't think you can actually remove the number, but you can make it private so nobody can see it.

This has been on my TODO for years:
TODO:
-custom aliases

I've added it. Try this:
Preference: show notification for other keywords:
alias:nickname (only letters and numbers, you can add more than one alias, use a new line for each)

It took me a while to fix this, so it's still experimental. Adding the feature was easy, but triggering it at the right moment (to reduce server load) didn't really fit my current setup. Let me know if anything fails.



It's not working yet. Feel free to add an alias already, I'll test it later.
I tested it again, and it looks okay. Try it, and keep me posted :)



I think I got it now :D

looks like phone numbers can be used only once for registration on telegram, i had account that was deleted by me and even after some time, I can't register again using that number

Hey, great tool! I've only been using it for a couple of days and already I'm finding great value from it. Nice work (as always) Loyce  :)
Well, I'll have to disappoint you: for the first time since I created it, it was really down:
It looks like there's a DDOS going on, which started yesterday. I started DROPping ports, but I forgot to exclude Bitcointalk (it was quite late), so I broke my scraper.
For 7 hours and 2 minutes, I didn't download any posts between posts 62480523 (https://loyce.club/archive/posts/6248/62480523.html) and 62481467 (https://loyce.club/archive/posts/6248/62481467.html). That's 944 missing posts, which also mean my notifications (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5331343.0) failed for those.
I hope to keep it working from now on, but the DDOS is ongoing.

Hey, great tool! I've only been using it for a couple of days and already I'm finding great value from it. Nice work (as always) Loyce  :)
Well, I'll have to disappoint you: for the first time since I created it, it was really down:

Hmm. I guess that explains why I was getting connection errors for some periods of time. No disappointment here, thank you for the explanation. The tool is working as of this post but yes, there are some struggles to properly connect consistently.

I wonder what motive someone would have to attack your tools? They only really benefit the community and don't really pose a downside to anyone. Unless this is the case with some other tools on the server?

Have you tried adopting litespeed over/in conjunction with apache? It's a good, cheap solution to filter most bad traffic without going to the extent of adopting an expensive/intrusive method like cloudflare.

At the moment, I can't reach the server at all anymore. We're working on it.

I'm the only one using the server's IP address. Why can't they just leave fake negative feedback, and complain on the Reputation board, like normal internet trolls? :D

The attack was on port 443, so this won't matter.

None of that works as long as the current server is unreachable :(
The plan is to work some AWS magic and be back online after that. I was unprepared to setup a second scraper to prevent losing posts, so posts archive is going to be less complete. I still see LoyceBot (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=949024) online once in a while, it may still be able to scrape some posts.

Update: It works again. I missed about 5000 posts in total :(

Litespeed should still be able to filter out bad traffic, or rate limit traffic. I could be wrong but I have seen it used to mitigate both basic and advanced attacks before. It just depends on configuration.

Nice to hear!
Is there no possibility to build a function that could "rescan" from a set date, e.g from first attack til now?

It's not a secret the server is sponsored (http://loyce.club/), that's where the help came from.

I don't want to challenge any trolls, but the current solution should suffice. I'm amazed at the tricks AWS can pull :D

Not really: I'd have to check all recent topics for activity, which would be more work than it's worth.

I noticed some missing topic titles in my own notifications. I think this was caused by the last month's DDOS downtime. I'm currently scraping all missing titles (and many of those don't exist anymore because the topic was deleted). This will take about 3-4 days to complete.

Consider this a bump :)

I think you scraping the older topics, maybe only for a certain period, and If someone changed the title, your bot still displays the older version.
For example, on my notification page (http://loyce.club/notifications/314792.html) shows a scraped post from the Sinbad mixer campaign, where is the title "[OPEN] SINBAD MIXER Signature Campaign. Up-to $75/w | Payment escrowed:" That title was changed by the manager (Royse777) on December 5, '22. After that date, the thread title was changed POST (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5419242.msg61396520#msg61396520)
Since the subject was changed to the OP post, your bot had to take the title from some posts within that period. I would conclude that there is a problem with topics after that period.

Correct, I only display the title as I first scraped it. That works okay for mosts topics, and reduces my scraping needs.

The server switched to CloudFront a couple of months ago, to get rid of the DDOS attack. My guess is it's somehow blocking you for that reason. Here, it works, even on Tor browser. I'll notify @suchmoon, I can't really fix this myself.

Meanwhile, I can upload the files to a different server. See: tmp.loyce.club/notifications/ (http://tmp.loyce.club/notifications/).

Thank you sooo much, I can open files uploaded to another server with no problems

Strange because I use your bot frequently and for sure i have used it in last week, so after it was switched to CloudFront and always worked fine, just to let you know, maybe it will help

I am also using Free VPN Proton maybe this is causing the problem, also started to use it recently because my yearly subscription on ExperessVPN ended, sometimes I have problems to open some web pages

I looked at AWS' troubleshooting (https://repost.aws/knowledge-center/cloudfront-troubleshoot-504-errors), and it may be I blocked some of CloudFront's own IP addresses. Can you try again if notifications (https://loyce.club/notifications/131333.html) are still inaccessible?
I blocked IP addresses to stop agressive scrapers. It may have caused some unwanted side effects.

I (only now?) realized some weird behavior: scrape time uses Amsterdam time, but quotes inside posts use forum time. That means there's a one or two hour time difference (depending on the time of year).
It's a remnant of how I started my scraping. Not a big deal, but good to be aware of. I won't change this.

How stupid I am. I was searching for the posting format all over the OP but did not notice you asked to check the next post. I was even digging the old thread that was replaced by this one. LOL. Is it possible to get old notifications where I was mentioned in the last seven days if I subscribe today? Do I have to post my subscription post in a different post than this? Or I can post with this text? I will try before LoyceV replies.

Ah, thanks. I have edited the post and it started working. I was wondering how long it will take to generate a separate page for me. I was getting a page not found error on the website and I didn't know why. The delay is supposed to be six minutes or an hour maybe. So I came to comment again and saw you already left a comment for me. Thanks!
