Bingus Bot#

A very clever kitty

Simple markov chain-based auto replies to user messages.

Installation#

Use the NixOS module in this flake or build/set it up yourself. Just need Rust.

Configuration#

TOKEN_FILE#

Path to the file containing the bot's token.

BRAIN_FILE#

Path to the file Bingus will save state in. The file will be created if not present. This will be a brotli-compressed MsgPack file.

Bingus will learn from all channels he has access to but will only auto-reply in these ones.
