Python module for the Willie IRC bot used in the Handmade Hero twitch chat.
Custom commands are defined in handmade.py, handmade_faq.py, handmade_stream.py, and handmade_bonus.py. handmade.py should be reserved commands related to the bot functionality, handmade_faq.py for common stream questions, handmade_stream.py for stream scheduling and timing based functions, and handmade_bonus.py for easter eggs and miscellaneous commands.
The config options used by the bot are available in handmade.cfg. Please refer to the Willie documentation for what the common configuration options mean.
test.py is currently deprecated, it might be useful at some point in the future to attempt to set up a series of tests to run to ensure the bot remains working.
Please refer to the forum thread and Issues page for discussion about features to add and updates.
Clone the repository and cd into the directory.
Then run willie -c handmade.cfg to start the bot.
Important: Please make sure that there is not already an instance of ChronalRobot running in chat. Twitch will not prevent multiple of them from running at a time, and all active instances will attempt to respond to queries. An easy way to test for this is to use the !hello command, as this should always be available. (Note: as of recently, the default bot username is now hmh_bot. You can run your own instance alongside if you change the username, oauth, and command character for the bot.)
Robot requires the following libraries to be installed: willie, arrow, parsedatetime, and sqlobject
To install them, issue following commands:
sudo pip install willie arrow parsedatetime sqlobject
