Like WordPress, you can also auto post your Blogger blogs using Google Apps Scripts. To achieve this you have to enable Post using email of your blogger account, also known as Mail2Blogger. Use this address to post text and images (up to 10MB in size) directly to your blog.
Sign in to your blogger account then navigate to Settings › Email
Sign in to your blogger account then navigate to Settings › Email
Notice that the code snippet below uses youremail.secretword@blogger.com to auto publish using Gmail Service, which allows scripts to send email and access user's Gmail account. You can host an app script in any Google account and need not necessarily the same blogger account to which it is connected to.
The content for the blog can be scrapped from a URL.
