I Automated My Daily Blog with GitHub Actions, Gemini and the Blogger API

Описание и применение

Автоматизация ежедневного блога с использованием GitHub Actions, Gemini и Blogger API, включая обработку ошибок с ключами, устаревшими моделями и токенами OAuth.

Задача

Automate daily blog posting without manual intervention, ensuring credentials, model availability, and token validity.

Результат

The automated pipeline publishes a new blog post every morning, handling credential storage, model retirement, and token expiry, while ensuring idempotency and quality guardrails.

Рабочий процесс

• Trigger GitHub Actions on a daily cron schedule.
• Run generate_post.py to request a Gemini model to write a post about a skill from skills.txt.
• Run post_to_blogger.py to publish the generated post via the Blogger API.
• Commit the generated post file to prevent topic repetition.

Доказательства

GitHub Actions runs a Python script on a schedule, Gemini writes the post, and the Blogger API publishes it.
