##CloudBot/1.0

About

CloudBot is very heavily based on Skybot by rmmh. (https://github.com/rmmh/skybot)

Install

Before you can run the bot, you need to install a few Python modules. These are LXML and BeautifulSoup. On Ubuntu these can be installed using the following commands:

For the spell.py plugin to work you need Enchant. This can be installed with:

The whois.py plugin will work by default, but not very well. To make it work properly you will need to install the native whois package. This can be installed with:

If you use another OS or distro you can find source packages on the module(s) web site, or you can try to find suitable packages in your package manager.

Once installing these packages run the bot once with python bot.py to generate the config file. Stop the bot, edit the config, and run the bot again with python bot.py to start it up :)

Requirements

CloudBot runs on Python 2.7. Many of the plugins require lxml and BeautifulSoup. It is devloped on Ubuntu 11.10 with Python 2.7.2.
