Overview of lobste.rs#

The lobste.rs API provides access to a wealth of information from the lobste.rs community, a computing-focused curated link aggregation site. It offers endpoints to fetch stories, comments, and user details, which can be integrated into various workflows on Pipedream. This integration allows you to monitor new content, track topics or user activity, and even collate data for analysis. With Pipedream, you can seamlessly connect lobste.rs with hundreds of other apps to create tailored automations without managing servers or writing extensive code.

Connect lobste.rs#

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    lobste_rs: {
      type: "app",
      app: "lobste_rs",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    return await axios($, {
      url: `https://lobste.rs/s/lc58pw/what_are_you_doing_this_week.json`,
    })
  },
})

Overview of Google Sheets#

The Google Sheets API allows for the creation, reading, updating, and deletion of data within Google Sheets, enabling a robust platform for spreadsheet management and data manipulation. Through Pipedream, you can craft serverless workflows that respond to various triggers, such as webhook events, emails, or scheduled times, to interact with Google Sheets. This synergy can automate reporting, synchronize data across applications, manage inventory, track leads in a CRM, or even conduct survey analysis by updating and retrieving sheet data on the fly.

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
  props: {

Building a Google Sheets Twitter Bot with Pipedream

This is something that's been kicking around my head for a week or so and today I thought I'd try it. It ended up taking about 20 minutes total and 10 lines of code, of which 5 are a function I copied and pasted. While what I built is kind of trivial, I'm blown away by how much was done by built-in functions with Pipedream and how little work I had to do myself. In fact, most of my time was spent in setting stuff up outside of Pipedream itself. Alright, so what did I build?

Building a Twitter Scheduling System with Pipedream and Google Sheets

A few months ago, I blogged about how I used Pipedream and Google Sheets to create a Twitter bot. The idea was simple - read a sheet - select a random row - and use that as the source of a new Tweet. I was thinking about this recently and how useful Google Sheets can be as a "light weight CMS" and figured out another interesting use case - Twitter scheduling.

Logging user credit changes using Google Sheets and Pipedream

One of the nice features SuperSaaS is a credit system which allows end-users to buy credit once and then easily pay for appointments without needing to go through the checkout each time. There are multiple things that can affect a credit balance. Credit purchases and new appointment, obviously, but also refunds due to canceled appointments, and manual credit adjustments by a superuser. This post is a step-by-step tutorial for setting up the logging of user credit information to a Google Sheet using Pipedream, a powerful API integration service.
