The Bot
Arky_Bot is custom-made with TypeScript, self-hosted as a Node.js-instance on a server in Frankfurt, Germany. All functionality is maintained by me, and can be made available open-source on request should you need anything from it. However, it is currently not possible to add the bot to other channels, and I have no plans re-enable this functionality at this point in time.
The bot also works in conjunction with a Discord bot, that posts to a notifications channel once the stream goes live, done through an eventsub service running under the hood. It also serves as a remote console.log, whenever there’s an error.
The bot is build on top of tmi.js with custom functionality, and besides integrating with my own personal API, it has the following API integrations:
- Twitch
- Discord
- Guild Wars 2
- Guild Wars 2 Wiki
- Triggerfyre
- YouTube Music
