Pokemon Showdown chat bot made in Python 3.

This chat bot supports some of the following. More functionality can be found in our wiki

• Moderation
• Games and leader-boards
• LaTeX compilation

The Showdown bot is built from two main components:

• app.py which contains the class PSBot, the central workings, and serves it's purpose of parsing messages and delegating information to proper modules. the app is created.
• commands.py which parses the user input and determines which command to pass user's arguments to.

Follow the PEP8 Standard and also the Google Python Standard for documentation. W503 (line length 80 chars) is ignored since some lines would look unintuitive when spread out.

The following are the necessary dependencies for running this software.

• APT/RPM based Linux distribution like Debian or Fedora
• Some functionality may still work on Windows and MacOS, but have not been fully tested. Use at your own discretion.
• If you're not running Linux natively then consider running this project in vagrant; more info provided below.

• Requires the following to be installed, texlive and poppler-utils

• Requires that gcalccmd is installed

• Python 3.4+. No plans are made to make this support earlier versions.
• PIP. Package manager for python

0. (optional) Setting up an environment separate from your host OS or global python interpreter to avoid dependency conflicts.

• If you're on Linux you might find setting up a virtualenv with the following virtualenv -p /usr/bin/python3 quadbot && source quadbot/bin/activate will be helpful.
• If you're on MacOS or Windows setting up vagrant will be useful. Then you can use vagrant init && vagrant ssh to load this project's production environment.

1. Clone the git repo to your desired location
2. Run git update-index --assume-unchanged plugins/SecretCommands.py to stop tracking SecretCommands.py

4. Follow the instructions in details-example.yaml to configure your bot for login
5. Run using python3 app.py
6. (optional) Test for errors you can run test.sh using chmod +x test.sh && ./test.sh
