twitch-chat-bot

A hackety chat bot I wrote for my twitch stream. I wanted to learn asyncio and this felt like a decent project to dive in on.

setup

  1. Set up a configuration file

    {
      "username": "...",
      "channel": "...",
      "oauth_token": "...",
      "client_id": "...",
      "airnow_api_key": "..."
    }
    • username: the username of the bot account
    • channel: the irc channel to connect to, for twitch this is the same as the streamer's channel name
    • oauth_token: follow the directions here to get a token
    • client_id: set up an application for your chat bot here
    • airnow_api_key: api key for https://airnowapi.org
  2. Use python3.8 or newer and install the dependencies in requirements.txt

    virtualenv venv -ppython3.8
    venv/bin/pip install -r requirements.txt
  3. Run! venv/bin/python -m bot
