# clothing-upload-bot
A FastAPI service for reuploading clothing assets to Roblox groups, used in *Filoxen Research Facilities*. This app fetches clothing from existing Roblox assets and reuploads them to a target group.
## Prerequisites
- Python 3.13+
- `uv` (install from [astral.sh/uv](https://astral.sh/uv))
- Valid Roblox `ROBLOSECURITY` cookie in your environment
## Installation
Clone the repository and install dependencies with `uv`:
```bash
uv sync
```
This will create a virtual environment and install all required packages.
## Configuration
Create a `.env` file in the project root with the following variables:
```
TARGET_ID=<group_id> # The Roblox group ID to upload clothing to
VALID_API_KEY=<your_api_key> # API key for authorizing requests to this service
ROBLOSECURITY_TOKEN=<cookie> # Your Roblox roblosecurity cookie
PUBLISHER_USER_ID=<user_id> # The Roblox user ID for the cookie
DISCORD_WEBHOOK_URL=<url> # (Optional) Discord webhook for upload notifications
```
**Important:** `PUBLISHER_USER_ID` must match the user ID of the account that owns the `ROBLOSECURITY_TOKEN`.
## Features
- **Duplicate Prevention**: Uses SHA256 image hashing and a local SQLite database to prevent re-uploading the same item twice.
- **Race Condition Protection**: Uses asynchronous locking to ensure simultaneous requests for the same image don't trigger multiple uploads.
- **Discord Notifications**: Sends a rich embed to Discord whenever an asset is successfully uploaded.
- **Metadata Preservation**: Automatically appends a link to the original Roblox asset in the new asset's description.
## ⚠️ Disclaimer
This tool uses Roblox's APIs in a way that violates their Terms of Service. Roblox may moderate or ban accounts that use this. Use at your own risk.
