CSGOScoreBot

Introduction

What is CSGOScoreBot?

CSGOScoreBot started as a tiny Twitter bot which would tweet out the results of professional CS:GO games, but has evolved to be a clustered bot which will slave away to update viewers of live game information at a glance without the need to pull up the stream. The original Twitter bot can still be found on the old branch, but beware, the code is incredibly ugly!

How to Run

$ git clone https://github.com/andrewda/CSGOScoreBot
$ cd CSGOScoreBot
$ npm install

Now move the options.example.json file to options.json and configure it to match your needs. Then, run the bot:

$ npm run

Configuration

Create New Reddit App

To get your OAuth2 id and secret, create a new app and make sure to select the script type. You will be able to access your new app's details by clicking on the edit button - the id will be listed under the name at the top, and your secret will be listed below. Finally, add all the accounts you'll be using as developers on the app.

Configure Your options.json

Enter your newly created OAuth2 id and secret in the appropriate location in the options.json file. Next, you'll need to enter the account information for the Reddit accounts you'll be using on the bot. The bot will automatically cycle through the accounts to avoid being slowed down by Reddit's occasional one-minute cooldowns.
