Discord bot to write message if Twitch stream goes online

TwitchStatusBot

Simple bot to send message to a specific channel in Discord if Streamer get's online at Twitch.

HowTo

Clone the repo and copy over config.ini.dist to config.ini
Only sections [DISCORD] and [TWITCH] are mandatory. If you don't want the other features, delete the whole sections. Streams is a comma separated list of twitch streamer names. NO TRAILING COMMA!

Edit the file and propagate with API keys from Discord and Twitch.
To create a Discord bot and get a token go to Discord Applications and create one.
For Twitch got to Twitch Dev Dashboard and create an application (not extension). See Client credentials grant flow on how to get the tokens.

Prepare Python

Install extensions via pip install -r requirements.txt (best practice is using a virtual environment for that!)

Run

Simply do python3 main.py
Note: bot takes local timezone from server for timed data (like D4 worldboss), set it properly!

Set as systemd service

If you want your bot running as service, do following:

1. copy bot.service to /lib/systemd/system/
2. edit the file (set working directory and path to main.py)
3. do sudo systemctl daemon-reload and sudo systemctl enable bot
4. then sudo service bot start
