Introduction

This library provides complete Bot API 1.0 interface and compatible with Python 2.7, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 3.7, 3.8, 3.9, 3.10.

Getting started

• Create your own bot by sending the /newbot command to Metabot and follow the instructions.

  Note: a bot can only reply after the user has added it to his contact list, or if the user was the first to start a dialogue.

• You can configure the domain that hosts your ICQ server. When instantiating the Bot class, add the address of your domain.

  Example: Bot(token=TOKEN, name=NAME, version=VERSION, api_url_base="https://api.icq.net/bot/v1"), by default we use the domain: https://api.icq.net/bot/v1

• If you are Myteam client, you can add flag "is_myteam=True", when instantiating the Bot class. This will let you use additional chat methods.

  Example: Bot(token=TOKEN, name=NAME, is_myteam=True), by default it is False.

An example of how to use the framework can be seen in example/test_bot.py
