Goober Setup
Setting up Goober
To set up Goober, first ensure you have the latest version. Follow these steps:
1. Download the Required Python Packages
Download these packages using pip
:

-
Download the Update Utility
Download the update script (update.py
) here. Run the script to download the latest version of Goober. -
Get the Example Configuration
After updating, navigate to the main repository. Go to the main section and download theexample.env
file. This file contains the necessary environment variables for proper setup. - Set Up Your
.ENV
File
Rename the file to.env
and fill in all of the necessary information, such as your Discord Bot token.
Run the bot (bot.py
). It will give you your Goober Token. Copy this from the terminal, open back up the.env
file, add a line calledgooberTOKEN
, and paste in your token. For example:gooberTOKEN="insert-goober-token-here" (This is NOT the same as the discord bot token!)
You can now start up Goober using the samebot.py
file! See the next step if you'd like to add custom commands to your bot.
