Waylon::Wordle

This is a Skill for the Waylon Bot Framework that simulates Waylon playing Wordle. It uses a fairly straightforward algorithm to find today's word and either reports its score or most likely spoils things by showing its attempt at a solution.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'waylon-wordle'

And then execute:

$ bundle install

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install waylon-wordle

Finally, require the newly installed code in your bot (usually in your plugins.rb file under the # Skills section):

require "waylon/wordle"

The following skills are available by either direct messaging your bot or by @ mentioning them:
