So here is the logic:

1. Select which social social media sites to post to;
2. Ask for post text
3. If images shared from share sheet then upload to Dropbox
4. Post to social media sites (seperate shortcuts)
5. Get links for each social media post
6. Construct markdown file for snippet (using links to socials in metadata)
7. Use WorkingCopy to post to site.

I also made heavy use of datajar

Here are my shortcuts:

Well, Microsoft Teams doesn’t support importing custom videos and will only allow you to use it’s built-in video backgrounds. The tick to make it work, was to replace the in-built videos with the custom ones I downloaded keeping the filenames the same the as the in-built ones.

I did this once and it was fine but it meant I could only have 4 videos but I had downloaded 12, so I wrote a little script to randomize them and stop me getting bored.

import os
import glob
import random
import shutil

# Make sure to use the correct path on your system, and be careful with the use of the script since it involves file deletion.
TARGET_DIR = os.path.expanduser('~/Library/Containers/com.microsoft.teams2/Data/Library/Application Support/Microsoft/MSTeams/Backgrounds')

# Define the list of files to be replaced
files_to_replace = [
    'feelingDreamy2Animated_v=0.1.mp4',
    'feelingDreamy4Animated_v=0.1.mp4',
    'feelingDreamy5Animated_v=0.2.mp4',
    'feelingDreamy7Animated_v=0.1.mp4'
]

# Get the list of .mp4 files in the current directory
current_directory = os.getcwd()
mp4_files = glob.glob(os.path.join(current_directory, '*.mp4'))

# Check if there are enough files to replace
if len(mp4_files) < 4:
    print("Not enough mp4 files found to perform the replacement.")
else:
    # Select 4 random mp4 files from the list
    selected_files = random.sample(mp4_files, 4)

    # Create the target directory if it doesn't exist
    if not os.path.exists(TARGET_DIR):
        os.makedirs(TARGET_DIR)

    # Perform the file replacement
    for i, target_file in enumerate(files_to_replace):
        source_file = selected_files[i]
        target_file_path = os.path.join(TARGET_DIR, target_file)


        # Delete the target file if it exists
        if os.path.exists(target_file_path):
            os.remove(target_file_path)
        else:
            print(f"Target file {target_file} does not exist. It will be created.")

        # Copy the new file to the target location
        try:
            shutil.copy2(source_file, target_file_path)
            print(f"Replaced {target_file} with {source_file}.")
        except Exception as e:
            print(f"Failed to replace {target_file} with {source_file}. Error: {e}")

print("Replacement complete.")
