Twitch Chatter is a small utility program that integrates with OBS via the OBS WebSocket plugin. Twitch Chatter allows for trusted users to whisper commands to the broadcaster to control OBS. Additionally, Twitch Chatter can be configured to listen for commands issued by moderators in your channel.
The OBS WebSocket plugin must be installed and configured in OBS. After starting OBS, you can then start Twitch Chatter.
Twitch Chatter requires a filled out configuration file. An example exists in the configs folder. Once this is filled out, the file should be placed in one of the following locations.
- Same folder as the executable for Twitch Chatter
- Users home directory
- ~/.config/twitch-chatter.toml on Linux/Unix,
- %USERPROFILE%/twitch-chatter.toml on Windows
- The system directory
- /etc/twitch-chatter.toml on Linux / Unix
- %SYSTEMROOT%/twitch-chatter.toml on Windows
Twitch Chatter uses an OAUTH token to connect to the Twitch IRC (Internet Relay Chat) interface. An OAUTH token can be obtained from the Twitch Chat OAUTH Password Generator. This token must be saved in the configuration file.
Once the configuration file has been saved, and OBS has been started with the WebSocket plugin installed, simply run Twitch Chatter.
Sceneswitcher allows an authorized user to whisper the !scene command to the
broadcaster to switch OBS scenes.
