NOTE: ATM master
branch contains TwiCIL v1.3.0-legacy
(for Godot 2.x), latest changes brouhgt with v2.0.0
are at godot3.1 branch. In the future things will switch around.
An abstraction layer for Godot Engine to enable interaction with twitch chat.
A basic explanation is available in this video (1.5x speed is recomended :D)
- Implement secure connection over WS for 3.1.x (should have built in tools for the purpose)
Add aliases for chat commands- Manage user states (
connected/disconnected/banned users?) - Investigate if it's possible to actively ask server for user list (at least add update of users list on new message)
- Implement retrieval of emote images
Assuming you have added TwiCIL node to your scene:
onready var twicil = get_node("TwiCIL")
var nick = "MySuperGame"
var client_id = "myClient1D"
var oauth = "oauth:my0auTh"
var channel = "channel_name"
func _setup_twicil():
twicil.connect_to_twitch_chat()
twicil.connect_to_channel(channel, client_id, oauth, nick)
# Enable logging (disabled by default)
twicil.set_logging(true)
# Add custom commands to game bot
twicil.commands.add("hi", self, "_command_say_hi", 0)
twicil.commands.add("bye", self, "_command_say_bye_to", 1)
twicil.commands.add("!w", self, "_command_whisper", 0)
# Add some aliases
twicil.commands.add_aliases("hi", ["hello", "hi,", "hello,", "bye"])
# Remove command/alias
twicil.commands.remove("bye")
func _command_say_hi(params):
var sender = params[0]
twicil.send_message(str("Hello, @", sender))
func _command_say_bye_to(params):
var sender = params[0]
var recipient = params[1]
twicil.send_message(str("@", recipient, ", ", sender, " says bye! TwitchUnity"))
func _command_whisper(params):
var sender = params[0]
twicil.send_whisper(sender, "Boo!")
func _ready():
_setup_twicil()
