beam-client-python

This is a basic chat bot framework for Beam, built to serve as a basic example of a Beam chat bot.

Usage

We've built a chat bot that logs incoming messages to the console, no longer sends "Hi!" to the channel every second. !ping command has been added

To use it, ensure Python 3 is installed on your system. Then:

• install dependencies
  • Windows : python setup.py install
  • Linux : python3 setup.py install
• copy config.example.py to config.py and add your authentication information
• run the example chatbot
  • Windows : Launch run.bat (fixes issues with certain font types)
  • Linux : python3 example.py

Tested Platforms
