Simple example of a translation bot for Twitch Uses google translate througe googletrans npm package. It doesn't require a key, but it has some limitations. And you can easily adapt the script to use another API, eventually with your own API key.
In order to use this script you must
- Create a Twitch channel for your bot. The name of th ebot will be the name of the channel and cannot be changed
- Generate a key for authenticating your bot, using the Twitch Chat OAuth Password Generator: https://twitchapps.com/tmi/
You only need to install npm packages and run the script, by executing these commands in the folder where you have stored your copy of bot.js script. You'll need to set CHANNEL_NAME and CHANNEL_PASSWORD environment variables to node - you also can directly modify the script
npm install
CHANNEL_NAME=mybotchannel CHANNEL_PASSWORD=xxxxxx node ./bot.js
- !lang : displays basic information about the feature.
