ADVANCED: ADD CUSTOM HANDLERS

If you want to add your own handlers, you will need to understand JavaScript and the tmi.js library. There are a few extra things to consider.

Do you want is to fire based on a !command?
Do you want it to fire on every chat?
What security should prevent the handler being fired? e.g mod only, spotlight only etc.
What should the handler do?

Once you have answered those questions you are ready to add the handler.

Navigate to the handlers.js
If you want a command copy the following code into the file:

actionHandlers['!command'] = {
    security: (context, textContent) => {
        return true; // This should return a boolean, true will fire the handler
    },
    handle: (context, textContent) => {
        // Place handle script here
    }
};

If you want a general command copy the following code into the file:

allHandlers.push({
    security: (context, textContent) => {
        return true; // This should return a boolean, true will fire the handler
    },
    handle: (context, textContent) => {
        // Place handle script here
    }
});

Complete your handler and don't forget to add a description to the readme.md

ADVANCED: POPUP HELPER

The popup helper contains a few functions so you don't need to worry about the animations for the popup box! it can be accessed anywhere by typing popup followed by a function.

Methods:

popup.showText(text, bgColour): Displays popup on screen with the given text and colour.

popup.delete(): Removes popup from screen and resets state of all commands.

popup.formatEmotes(message, emotes, upperCase): Formats text with emotes, This must be past only and all message un-formatted or emotes wont be replaced properly. e.g popup.formatEmotes('Hello Twitch', context.emotes, true).substr(7) The substr function removes the !command, just change the number to the length of the command.
