Manual Setup

Create a config file

Save a new text file with your config. You can save it anywhere on your computer. The file must be in the .ini format and contain your token and all your connections.

[BOT]
token = tokengoeshere

[my_connection_1]
channels = 123456789 123456789 123456789

[my_connection_2]
channels = 123456789 123456789 123456789

The first section should be called [BOT] and contain your token. Each subsequent section is a different connection. The exact name doesn't matter so name them something memorable.

python3 -m connecty path/to/config.ini
