Setup

Install

virtualenv .lichess-bot-venv
source .lichess-bot-venv/bin/activate
pip install -r ../external/lichess-bot/requirements.txt

Run

It needs to run from lichess-bot's own root, so it's a little nasty.

export LICHESS_BOT_TOKEN=lip_abcdefg  # Replace with actual token.
cd external/lichess-bot
../../lichess-bot/.lichess-bot-venv/bin/python lichess-bot.py -c ../../lichess-bot/lichess-config.yml --disable_auto_logging

Service

Put this in ~/.config/systemd/user/goldfish.service. The example here assumes the user that should run this is called pi, and that this repo is at /home/pi/git/Goldfish.
