Project setup

You have learned how to create a very basic bot in the Quick start guide. In this page we will discuss how to configure the project to properly create your bots

Auth Key

You will need an AuthKey to use SwiBots, you can obtain your key on the Switch app

danger

Never share your AuthKey or commit it to any source code versioning system!

Configuration

Having the API key from the previous step, we can now begin to configure a SwiBots project: pass your API key to SwiBots by using the token parameter of the Client class:

from swibots import Client

TOKEN = "MY SUPER SECRET TOKEN"

# initialize the app
app = Client(
    TOKEN
)
