Wat it do

The bot only posts the one emote it is configured for. It replies to any mentions with the emote. It also greets all subs with the amount of months they (re)subbed! The bot can also periodically post the emote automatically.

The bot uses tmi.js to interface with twitch.

Installation

Simply run

npm install

to install all required NPM packages.

Running

To start the bot, just start the script with node

node emote_bot.js

• autoPost: whether to automatically periodically post the emote to all connected channels
• autoPostDelay: the automatic posting interval delay in milliseconds

TODOs

• the autopost code is probably crap it totally is ✔️
• actually most of the code is crap yep ✔️
• make bot config channel dependent with global defaults
