AideBot is a universal IRC help bot. When a user write (in public message or private message to the bot) a !help or a !help topic, the bot will respond with the appropriate line from a JSON file, where help data is stored.

The !help command itself can be customized and changed to something else by modifying helpcommand entry in the conf/config.yml file.

1. You need Python3 and pip3 installed on your system.

2. Run: pip3 install -r requirements.txt

3. Register the bot nick on the IRC network you want it to run on.

4. Copy conf/config.example.yml to conf/config.yml and change the configuration parameters according to your needs.

5. Finally, run: python3 aidebot.py and enjoy!

Open data/data.json with a text editor (or a JSON editor) and enter your help data there in JSON format. The file contains few sample data lines by default to demonstrate how simple topic/command help data and complex command help data should look like.
