The Shiritori-san bot was designed on a classic Japanese bot, originally Harumaro made this bot titled Shiritori-kun. It just simply didn't fit my needs as I wanted a bot that was made in Python (in comparison to his Javascript). To sort this issue I made my own bot and added made it from square one attempting to retain as many features as possible from his bot. Also I made use of a checks.py created by Rapptz.
You can find Harumaro's original bot here.
You can find Rapptz's checks.py here.
##Installation
As a standard, when you go to run the bot you will need to have atleast Python 3 as any version prior isnt supported by discord.py, the library in which this Discord Bot was created in. I apologise for any inconvenience that this may cause. Here are the install instructions!
Duplicate my sourcecode.
git clone https://github.com/jakeoid/shiritori-san-discord-bot.git shiritori-san -b master
Install the requirements in the requirements.txt.
sudo -H pip3.5 install --upgrade -r requirements.txt
Edit the settings inside of the bot
nano bot.py
Launch the bot.
