# quotes-bot-python

WIP rewrite of n/quotes-bot in Python with https://codeberg.org/imbev/simplematrixbotlib.

## Setup

First, make and activate a venv. There are plenty of guides online, however it usually goes like this:
```sh
python3 -m virtualenv venv && source venv/bin/activate.fish
```
If you use bash, you can replace `source venv/bin/activate.fish` with just `source venv/bin/activate`.

#### Dependencies

This bot depends on `simplematrixbotlib`, which can be installed in your venv like this:
```sh
pip install simplematrixbotlib
```

#### Configuring

> TODO: write docs about the config file

First, copy the sample config:
```sh
cp config.sample.json config.json
```
Then edit it:
```sh
$EDITOR config.json
```
You should be good to go! To run it, run this in the venv:
```sh
python bot.py
```
