raudio-bot

This project is a Discord bot written in Python as a client for the Raudio server. At the moment, it just a proof of concept in order to be an example for one of many clients you could build Raudio.

Installation

Install the package, optionally in a virtual environment:

pip install raudio-bot

Create the appropriate configuration files. See Setting your token and Creating a bot configuration below.

Finally, run the bot:

python3 -m raudio_bot

Setting up a development environment

In order to develop for the Raudio bot, first you must obtain a token from Discord for authenticating your bot. You can do this by visiting the Discord Developer Portal and creating an application. From there you can generate a token for the bot.

Downloading the project

Clone the repository with the following:

$ git clone git@github.com:raudio-project/raudio-bot.git
$ cd raudio-bot
$ python3 -m venv venv             # Create a python virtual environment
$ source venv/bin/activate         # Activate the dev environment
$ pip3 install .                   # Install dependencies for the project

Setting your token

Now, specify the token by creating a .env file inside of the raudio-bot folder.

echo "BOT_TOKEN=your_token_goes_here" >> .env

Creating a bot configuration

Third, you must create a configuration for the bot. Create a raudio_config.json with the following:

{
    "stream_url": "http://momo.campus.nd.edu:5000/stream",
    "authenticated": [
        
    ]
}

Currently, the stream_url field corresponds to the URL where the raudio server is set to. You may, of course, host your own, but feel free to use the hosted version. This URL is only available to University of Notre Dame students signed into the eduroam network, due to the university firewall.

Running the bot

Now you should be all set up! Simply run the following

$ python3 raudio_bot
