In order to use this, you first need a UID, which you can get by querying /seq?getuid=true and optionally include &start=BIBLEREF (where BIBLEREF is like 1Cor2:1) to set a start position other than Genesis 1:1.
After you have your UID, this will keep track of where you are at. Query /seq?uid=YOURUID and optionally include &num=# (where # is an integer of how many verses you want to include from your current position at a time)
The &view= argument works with this.
#!/bin/sh
verse=$(curl -XGET https://api.1611.social/seq?uid=MYUID?view=plain);
curl -XPOST -u biblebot:MYPASSWORD \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"status": "'"${verse}"'"}' \
