• Username autocomplete on @ mentions and / commands, triggered by pressing tab.

• Bubble Tea for the terminal UI
• Gorilla WebSocket for the websocket connection
• SQLite for storage
• Viper for configuration

Currently only tested on Linux. macOS might work if you build it yourself.

Cloning option (requires Go):

1. git clone https://github.com/zigzter/chatterm.git
2. cd chatterm
3. go build --tags "fts5" .

If you have to re-auth for whatever reason, and the oauth request gets stuck loading, try removing the connection from Twitch Connections, then retry the auth.

Downloading binary option: Simply download the binary and run ./chatterm

• Ban a user: /ban username
• Timeout a user: /ban username timeInSeconds
• Search for messages: /search something to search
  • from:username restricts search to messages sent by that user
  • channel:channelName restricts search to messages in that channel
  • Supports wildcards and is case insensitive: kek* will find KEKW
  • Supports AND, NOT, and OR keywords. /search tf2 OR ow2 will find all messages that contain at least one of those
  • This search queries the local DB, so it will only find messages that you've received while in the chat rooms
• Clear chat: /clear (this is the moderator clear, not a local one)
• Get a user's info: /info username
• Send an announcement: /announcement something to announce
• Give a streamer a shoutout: /shoutout username (untested, only works if the channel you're in is live)
• Warn a user, requiring them to acknowledge the warning before they can resume chatting: /warn username reason
• Delete all locally stored chat messages: /clearall
• Enable/disable shield mode: /shield on|off
• Watch a user (highlight their messages): /watch username
  • To remove the user, re-run the command
  • You can also manually edit the $HOME/.config/chatterm.json file to add/remove users under the watched-users key
