Turn Twitch chatter into Python events.
twitchobserver makes interacting with Twitch chat super easy. It is built and tuned for realtime applications. You can make chatbots chat. You can build Twitch Plays video games.
- Pure Python: No extra dependencies. Just plain and simple Python.
- Small API: With a few classes and a handful of methods, you can learn it over a coffee break.
- Event Based: Makes writing apps easy and straightforward.
- Context Manager: Further simplifies working with observers.
$ pip install twitchobserver
from twitchobserver import Observer
observer = Observer('Nick', 'oauth:abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123')
observer.start()
observer.join_channel('channel')
observer.send_message('Hello and goodbye', 'channel')
observer.leave_channel('channel')API documentation can be found over on ReadtheDocs.org.
$ python -m unittest discover -s tests
Whenever a message is sent, echo it back. The Observer is created as a context manager object which will implicitly handle calling start() and stop().
import time
from twitchobserver import Observer
with Observer('Nick', 'oauth:abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123') as observer:
observer.join_channel('channel')
while True:
try:
for event in observer.get_events():
if event.type == 'TWITCHCHATMESSAGE':
observer.send_message(event.message, event.channel)
time.sleep(1)
except KeyboardInterrupt:
observer.leave_channel('channel')
breakMore examples can be found in the Cookbook.
