Node Operators getting started

Hi everyone!
I just made a simple app in Python to getting stats from node API and sending to you via Telegram. You can download code from my Github and run. You’ll find all informatios on Github.

I am not using it but I like that SNOs/devs are coming up with new ways to monitor their nodes. Keep up the good work! :heart:

Sure, this is how it works:

  • Python script gets data from storage node API and coinpaprika price API
  • parse data
  • and finally, push it through Telegram API to user

:frowning:
python3 app.py
File “app.py”, line 14
with request.urlopen(f’https://api.coinpaprika.com/v1/tickers/storj-storj?quotes={currency}') as url:
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Unfortunately I get the same error. If I try to “fix” all the syntac errors I get this:

    Traceback (most recent call last):

    with request.urlopen('https://api.coinpaprika.com/v1/tickers/storj-storj?quotes={currency}') as url:

sure thing! I installed and everything sounds fine, but how the push works? do I have to execute a command inline with the bot? How to see those datas in telegram?

You need to create Telegram Bot by yourself and get your own user ID from Telegram app. You need to fill this data in a specific place in code. Everything is very clearly described in README.md on Github repo.

And how it works? The whole process (get, parse and push data) is inside one python file. You just need to run this code and python get, parse and push this data to Telegram. You can use crontab to automatize this process.

It’s really useful
