iOS Dev Space Server Scripts

This repository houses automated scripts for iOS Dev Space server administration and maintenance tasks.

Scripts

WelcomeBot

A Swift script that automatically sends welcome direct messages to newly approved users on the iOS Dev Space Mastodon instance.

How it works:

  • Checks for accounts created since the last run that have been approved
  • Sends a personalized welcome DM to each new iOS Dev Space member
  • Updates a timestamp file to track progress
  • Runs automatically 3 times daily via GitHub Actions (8am, 2pm, 8pm UTC)

Requirements:

  • Admin access to the iOS Dev Space Mastodon instance
  • Mastodon API credentials (access token)

Running Locally

WelcomeBot

  1. Create a .env file in the repository root:

    MASTODON_BASE_URL=https://iosdev.space
MASTODON_ACCESS_TOKEN=your-access-token

  2. Run the script:

    chmod +x WelcomeBot.swift
swift WelcomeBot.swift

The script will:

  • Read the last check timestamp from last_check_timestamp.txt
  • Process new approved users
  • Update the timestamp file after each successful message

Adding New Scripts

When adding new iOS Dev Space automation scripts to this repository:

  1. Create the script file in the root directory
  2. Add a corresponding GitHub Actions workflow in .github/workflows/
  3. Update this README with documentation for the new script
  4. Add any required secrets to the repository settings
