Telegram Bot that allows you to play Mau Mau (UNO) via inline queries

UNO Bot

Telegram Bot that allows you to play the popular card game UNO via inline queries. The bot currently runs as @unobot.

To run the bot yourself, you will need:

• Python (tested with 3.4+)
• The python-telegram-bot module
• Pony ORM

Setup

• Get a bot token from @BotFather and change configurations in config.json.
• Convert all language files from .po files to .mo by executing the bash script compile.sh located in the locales folder. Another option is: find . -maxdepth 2 -type d -name 'LC_MESSAGES' -exec bash -c 'msgfmt {}/unobot.po -o {}/unobot.mo' \;.
• Use /setinline and /setinlinefeedback with BotFather for your bot.
• Use /setcommands and submit the list of commands in commandlist.txt
• Install requirements (using a virtualenv is recommended): pip install -r requirements.txt

You can change some gameplay parameters like turn times, minimum amount of players and default gamemode in config.json. Current gamemodes available: classic, fast and wild. Check the details with the /modes command.

Then run the bot with python3 bot.py.

Code documentation is minimal but there.
