This is a bot to give you notifications about Twitch streams based on the category, title, tags, and/or streamer. It was originally created to alert us about streams of Deus Ex Randomizer and our other mods, and also The 7th Guest, The 11th Hour, and The 13th Doll. Stream Detective can send the notifications to Discord, Twitter, Mastodon, and Pushbullet.
Discuss here https://discord.gg/YCGJ8nXtAs (and you can also see it in action in the #streams channel!) or on Lemmy https://lemmy.mods4ever.com/c/stream_detective
You can see all the running deployments of Stream Detective (that we know about) here https://lemmy.mods4ever.com/post/116
To set up your own instance, copy the config.example.json file to config.json and adjust the settings as desired. clientId and accessToken are for the Twitch API. Searches is what streams to search for. NotificationServices is where it can send notifications to.
Get a Twitch Client ID here https://dev.twitch.tv/console/apps and then you can use https://twitchapps.com/tokengen/ to easily get the access token.
