Twitch Game Command

A twitch bot that answers to a command depending on the current game being played.

Running it on your personal computer

• Download the last version on the releases page.
• Unzip it.
• Open the file named .env with your notepad.
• Follow the instructions to put all the configuration the bot needs (like your channel name and the bot account).
• Launch the executable file (Windows will probably be suspicious because the file isn't signed). If the window closes immediately, there is probably an error in the .env file. You can launch the executable from a terminal window to read the error.

Now that the bot is started, you can head to http://localhost:3000 in your browser to begin writing your own commands.

The bot will be active as long as the window stays open.

Deploying it to a server

The preferred way is to use the docker image.

Or to manually build the bot from the source:

npm run build
cd backend
cp .env.template .env # then fill the .env file
npm start
