Note: This is an old version. I don't think I'll be updating this bot anymore, but it still works. Version 2 of this bot is here.

A bot for Twitch.tv with speedrunner-specific functionality and Speedrun.com API integration, written in Python.

1. Install the latest version of Python 3 (here)

2. In the Settings.py file, enter the required information in the following fields under # Channel owner settings:

   • CHANNEL: The channel owner's Twitch username.
   • CHANNELPASS: The oauth token for the channel owner's Twitch account — get one here while logged into the channel owner's Twitch account.
   • GAMES: Add, as a Python list, the game(s) you speedrun to this list. If you only speedrun one game, it should be a list with only one list inside. For each game's list, the first element should be the name of the game exactly how you'd type it in your stream title. The second element should be the code for the game that Speedrun.com uses in the hyperlink for that game's page. For example, Banjo-Tooie is 'bt':
     
     The third element should be the name of the platform that game is played on. For example, 'Nintendo 64'. The fourth element should be that platform's code as displayed on Speedrun.com. For example, Nintendo 64 is 'N64':
     
   • CATEGORIES: Add, as a Python list, the categorie(s) of all the games you speedrun to this list. If you only run one category, it should be a list with only one list inside. For each category's list, the first element should be the name of the category exactly how you'd type it in your stream title. The second element should be the code for that category that Speedrun.com uses in the hyperlinks for that category. For example, Any% is usually 'Any' and 100% is usually '100':
     
   • SRC_USERNAME: If your Speedrun.com username is different from your Twitch username, change this to your Speedrun.com username (within quotes and lowercase). Otherwise, leave this unchanged.

3. In the Settings.py file, also edit these two fields under # Bot account settings:

   • PASS: the oauth token for the Twitch account that will be controlled by the bot — get one here while logged into the bot's Twitch account
   • IDENT: the username of the Twitch account that will be controlled by the bot

Run the Run.py file every time you stream and the bot will join your channel, ready to be used!

The speedrunning-specific features take your stream title into account. So, for the WR checker/PB checker/leaderboard link generator/race link generator to work, please adhere to these guidelines when making your stream titles:

• Write the game title exactly as you wrote it in the Settings.py file.
• Write the category title exactly as you wrote it in the Settings.py file.
• If you're doing a race, make sure "race with" is in your title, followed by your opponents' Twitch usernames separated by commas. For example: "Banjo-Tooie Any% Race with coolguy123, speedrunner456, streamerdude11". Do not use "and". Only commas.

Note: It is recommended that you make the bot a moderator in your channel, so that it isn't accidentally timed out/banned/etc. by other bots and/or moderators.

• Add a GUI to run the bot from a single .exe, add dropdown lists for settings, etc.
• Host the bot online as opposed to locally
