node-dota2-bot

This project is a fork from Crazy-Duck's original bot

Wrapper around the node-dota2 library which handles all log-in shenanigans. This basic DotaBot class prepares an object for connection to Steam and the Dota2 Game Coordinator. As soon as connect(callback) is called, the DotaBot connects to Steam and the Dota2 GC. As soon as all connections are made, the queue is started. From then on, all scheduled functions will be executed as soon as the GC is available.

Usage

Run npm install node-dota2-bot to install the package or clone from GitHub
