`twitch2ma` is a [Twitch](https://twitch.tv) chat bot that hooks into your channel and executes commands on a
[GrandMA 2](https://www.malighting.com/grandma2/) console using telnet.
Viewers can run user-defined commands like `!red` in chat to trigger whatever action on the desk. Additionally, viewers
can always run `!lights` in chat to list all available commands.
## Installation
To install `twitch2ma` you need to have at least [node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/) 14 installed. Run
```bash
npm install -g twitch2ma
```
## Configuration
Before you can run `twitch2ma` you need a config file in JSON or YAML format. Sample files are
located in the root directory ([JSON](config.json.sample) / [YAML](config.yml.sample))
of the repository and ship with the npm package.
Find a detailed description of every option [here](docs/config.md).
### Twitch authentication
As mentioned above, you need a `clientId` and an `accessToken` when connecting the bot to a channel. To obtain these,
you will need to register an app on [dev.twitch.tv](https://dev.twitch.tv/console/apps). Just use any name you like for
the app. `OAuth Redirect URLSs` don't matter either, just fill in anything. Category is `Chat Bot` of course. You can
get your `clientId` from the manage page now.
After you have done that, you will need an access token. Unfortunately, this is not done by `twitch2ma` yet, so you have
to get it manually with [this neat tool](https://twitchapps.com/tmi/). You will get an OAuth token like
`oauth:9ouvuuiv3mwvdd3rx5obks823jdp20dj`. Remove the `oauth:` and that is your access token for the configuration file.
### Locking commands and parameters
`twitch2ma` can receive sACN to temporarily lock commands. This is done by the `sacn` configuration options. If configured,
`twitch2ma` listens to the respective universe/channel combination and locks configured commands and parameters when the
channel value drops below 100%. This allows for a more flexible way of allowing or denying viewers' input.
When sACN is configured for a channel or parameter, it overrides `timeout` settings for that channel or parameter.
Additionally a `lockMessage` can be configured which is sent to Twitch chat when viewers try to execute a locked command/parameters.
## Usage
To run `twitch2ma`, just run the following command. Please be aware that you need to have a desk or onPC in your
network, reachable under the IP adress you configured. You also have to have telnet turned on.
```bash
twitch2ma [configFile]
```
`configFile` is optional and defaults to `config.json`.
### Advanced usage
There are more commands and options available when running `twitch2ma`. Please run `twitch2ma -h` or `twitch2ma help` for more help.
