The now banned Padded Person of LemmyNSFW made a SauceNaoBot for Lemmy: https://lemmynsfw.com/post/97671
https://github.com/LemmySauceNao/LemmySauceNaoBot
No idea if it’ll be maintained anymore, but would be QoL upgrade since it’d take the burden off the user to provide sauce (and not everyone does).
Since this is not my code, I am wondering if this should/could be implemented on Burggit by admins, or by a user?
Funny that you mention this, I spent an entire evening trying to implement this along with changing the hardcoded Lemmynsfw.com site and configuring a bot with the proper creds, and getting a saucenao API key to boot. The code doesn’t work or I am using it wrong. It gives me a not found error when trying to login with a bot’s user/pass.
A user not found error when checking the backend logs is what gets reported too. So I don’t know. The code needs to be documented. There’s not even helpful comments in the code explaining what each function does, so I’m at a loss since I’ve only briefly worked with C# many years back.
I probably would’ve continued working on this had I not came to the realization that Lemmy’s API is still young and is subject to changing quickly as the codebase matures.
Sorry, but I don’t think this is workable.
E: Disa, per usual explained it better. 😅
We tried, the bot doesn’t seem to be programmed properly, we plugged it into Burggit and kept getting a generic “User not found” error, tried on multiple accounts and made many efforts to get it working. The code is unfortunately not very well documented, and by that, I mean, not documented at all. If someone else wants to give it a shot, we’d definitely welcome it.
Good to know, and that’s a shame to hear. Thanks for your efforts on trying to get it to work
Guess it’ll be manual sauce hunting for the foreseeable future@RA2lover@burggit.moe made a post about a SauceNAO browser extension which adds reverse image searching to your browser’s context menu. I’ve installed it, and it seems to work very well. Might be of interest to you.
