EV0002

The channel bot in #easyrpg on freenode, provides logs, pizza and a lot of other stuff.

It is is written in ruby, using the cinch bot framework (our legacy EV0001 bot was written from scratch).

Installation

Needed gems besides cinch are (see Gemfile for details):

Deprecated/Optional gems:

You can use bundler to install them and their dependencies.

$ bundle install --path vendor/bundle [--shebang="ruby2.1"]

If you provide the path argument, gems will be installed locally.

Secret values (passwords and such) are read from a file secrets.yml on startup. A template is provided, you need to copy it and fill in the values or remove all references to $secrets and fill in the values directly.

Running

$ ./EV0002

This helper script tries to detect if you installed the gems locally with bundler and will run EV0002 in bundler environment if needed.
