Data4Democracy / ati-broadcastapp

The ATI Broadcast app group is building a Facebook publishing app for the group America the Indivisible. Via this app an AITD trusted partner will be able to broadcast a message to multiply Facebook groups from one interface. This will allow the local groups in a region, of which there are many, to better communicate and mobilize toward specific actions.

Integrate group scraping into backend #20

Open jonganc opened 7 years ago

jonganc commented 7 years ago

@wtee has written a scraper that extracts group information from the Indivisible web site and finds the locations of the groups. Currently, the scraper saves the data as a json file. It needs to be configured to save the data into the Mongo DB. This is a continuation of #4

A related question is: when does the Broadcast user check the groups it is a member of? Every hour? Every time we post?

Sorry just saw this question....I would think they check on demand. This is to get the group list to reach out offline to get access so it might live separately from the posting task. Alec
