sopel-wolfram

Wolfram|Alpha plugin for the Sopel IRC bot framework

Installing

Releases are hosted on PyPI, so after installing Sopel, all you need is pip:

$ pip install sopel-wolfram

Requirements

Sopel 8.x
wolframalpha 5.x

You will also need a Wolfram|Alpha App ID; see details below in the "Configuring" section.

Configuring

The easiest way to configure sopel-wolfram is via Sopel's configuration wizard—simply run sopel-plugins configure wolfram and enter the values for which it prompts you.

However, you can manually add the following section to your Sopel bot's configuration file if desired:

[wolfram]
app_id = yourappidgoeshere

The app_id setting is required, and you will need to get your own App ID from Wolfram|Alpha at https://developer.wolframalpha.com/

Optional settings:

max_public: the number of lines over which results will be sent in NOTICE instead of to the channel (default: 5)
units: measurement system displayed in results, either metric (the default) or nonmetric

Example usage

<User> .wa 2+2
<Sopel> [W|A] 2+2 = 4

<User> .wa airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow
<Sopel> [W|A] estimated average cruising airspeed of an unladen European
        swallow = 25 mph  (miles per hour)(asked, but not answered, about a
        general swallow in the 1975 film Monty Python and the Holy Grail)
