FIA F1 Docs Bot

The FIA F1 Docs Bot is an automated tool designed to fetch the latest Formula 1 decision documents from the FIA website and post them on a Threads account with AI summarization.

⚠️ Disclaimer

About

This bot aims to make FIA F1 decision documents more accessible by automatically posting them to a Threads account with AI summarization. It's designed for F1 fans and professionals who want quick access to official FIA communications.

Features

  • Automated Scraping: Periodically scrapes the FIA website for the latest decision documents.
  • Automated Posting: Posts the fetched documents to a specified Threads account.
  • Docker Support: Easily deployable using Docker for consistent environments.

How It Works

  1. Scraping: The bot scrapes the FIA website at a user-defined interval to check for new decision documents.
  2. Processing: New documents are converted to images and uploaded to Imgur to get public URLs.
  3. Posting: The bot automatically posts the images to the configured Threads account.

Requirements

  • Docker and Docker Compose (for containerized deployment)
  • Go 1.22+ (for local development)
  • Threads API access (see Limitations section)
  • Imgur account for image hosting
  • Google Gemini API for AI summarization (Can be skipped if not needed)

Quick Start with Docker

  1. Pull the Docker image:

    docker pull ptirth/fia-f1-docs-bot:latest
  2. Create a .env file with the following variables:

    FIA_URL=https://www.fia.com/documents/championships/fia-formula-one-world-championship-14/season/season-2024-2043
    DOCUMENT=file.json
    IMGUR_CLIENT_ID=your_imgur_client_id_here
    SCRAPE_INTERVAL=300
    THREADS_USER_ID=your_threads_user_id_here
    THREADS_ACCESS_TOKEN=your_threads_access_token_here
    GEMINI_API_KEY=your_google_gemini_api_key_here
    
  3. Create a docker-compose.yml file:

    services:
      bot:
        image: ptirth/fia-f1-docs-bot:latest
        env_file: .env
        volumes:
          - ./data:/app/data
        restart: unless-stopped
  4. Run the bot:

    docker-compose up -d
