Telegram Bot - EQ notification in your phone!

[Yurashina]

Just because it's open source doesn't mean you can take someone else's bandwidth without permission.

He doesn't mind if you use it, but he just wishes people would ask instead of just using without permission.

For just remind you, a opensource project doesn't need any permissions if you run that for not professional domain.

download the opensource project take always a bandwidth: you're not a god to decide if yes or no for other.

@OP
You should use flyergo's api if you want notifications for all ships.

True that. If you want you can use it, like I already told KazeSenoue, too.

I am not really concerned about how much people use it currently and my traffic is unlimited.

And as long if you aren't polling http://pso2emq.flyergo.eu/api/v2/ every second I see no problems.
I personally recommend to check every 1-5 minutes, since it internally checks Twitter about the same and caches the data.

(The Twitter API itself is restricted to 15 calls per 15 minutes. Calling it too often will result in an HTTP 429 “Too Many Requests” response code. https://dev.twitter.com/rest/public/rate-limiting)

I check the websites and APIs statistics every now and then.
There are currently about 3m calls per month (about 1.2 calls every second) and no signs of any issues or reported problems.
About 15-20% of those calls are PSO2Proxies, bots or custom developed tools.
If you develop a tool/bot that checks it every minute then it adds 43200 calls to the monthly statistic, which is still less against the 3m calls.

The only thing I might maybe ask people/developers who use it is to provide a proper User-Agent in the HTTP-Header which isn't "Unknown" or some Python-Lib

But currently there is no need for that and if I am ever going to change it, I will tell so on http://pso2emq.flyergo.eu and tell the people who I know that use it.

Shelion: your EQ bot is good, but the first get all EQ of all ship right? Why not adding a command to select which user want
