Write the following into that file, adding your Slack token and channel

client_secret: <Reddit Client Secret>

[slack]
# Follow instructions at https://my.slack.com/services/new/bot

Running Recho

Recho is designed for use with cron. Simply add an entry similar to the one below:

$ sudo vi /etc/crontab

If you use a virtual environment:

* * * * * user source ~/.venvrecho/bin/activate && recho acidtwist

Otherwise you can simply call recho directly

* * * * * user recho acidtwist
