MewBot is an automation framework intended to simplify building cross-platform
text/chat-bots.
The design is intended to be modular with configuration separated from code,
allowing users and developers to build out custom logic and behaviours with
minimal coding experience.

### Status

> :warning: This project is still in the very early stages. Some basic bots can be built
> and run, but we currently consider all parts of the framework to be unstable.

### Development

Contributions to the project are made via GitHub pull requests, which will
enforce the code style and linting requirements of this project.

#### Setting up project for local development

The recommended way to set this project up is using python 3.9 (or higher) with
a venv setup.
The setup is mostly standard, but we do have to add `./src` to the `PYTHONPATH`
so that python correctly detects all the source files.
The following example will get you started in bash-like shells.

```shell
# Get the source code
git clone git@github.com:mewler/mewbot
cd mewbot

# Set up the virtual environment
python3 -m venv venv
printf 'PYTHON_PATH=./src:$PYTHON_PATH\n' >>venv/bin/activate

# Activate the virtual environment
source venv/bin/activate

# Install all dependencies (including development dependencies)
pip install requirements-dev.txt

# Run a demo!
python3 -m examples examples/trivial_socket.yaml
```

#### Running the tests and linters

You can run the linters via the convenience script `python3 -m tools.lint`.
This runs the auto-formatter `black`, two opinionated linting tools in `flake8`
and `pylint`, and the `mypy` type checker in strict mode.

You can run the test framework using the convenience script `python3 -m tools.test`.
Locally this will default to running all tests in parallel for fast testing.
You can add the flag `--cov` to enable coverage, which will output coverage information
both to the terminal and store details of code coverage as webpages in `coverage/`.

More information on the linters and tests can be found in the
[contributor documentation](./CONTRIBUTING.md).
