Installation

To install Petmagotchi, use the following pip command:

Functions and usage

Create a new python file and install petmagotchi. Then, import the package with the following line of code:

from petmagotchi.pet import Pet

Create Pet: Pet(name,type)

Create your pet instance with the following command: my_Pet = Pet(name = 'pet_name', type = 'type')

Any pet name is allowed, given that the pet name is a string.

The current version only supports two types of pets: Dog, Cat

Therefore, valid commands look like:

my_Pet = Pet(name = 'Yuka', type = 'Cat')
my_Pet = Pet(name = 'Kylo', type = 'Dog')

See the status of your pet: print_status()

To see the status of your pet, use the print_status() method. Example below:

my_Pet.print_status()

This will automatically update your pet status based on the the time since the last action, and show you the status of your pet.

Feed your pet: feed_pet(food, quantity)

To feed your pet, use the feed_pet(food,quantity) method. This will fill your pet's hunger meter and mood. The method will also print out a reaction!

• The valid food selections are: meat, vegetable, ice cream, bread
• The valid quantity range is: [1,3]

Example below:

my_Pet.feed_pet(food = 'meat', quantity = 2)

Hydrate your pet: hydrate_pet(drink, quantity)

Same as feed, but for drinks!

• The valid food selections are: water, soda, milk, lemonade
• The valid quantity range is: [1,3]

Example below:

my_Pet.feed_pet(drink = 'lemonade', quantity = 3)

Play with your pet: play(toy)

Play with your pet by giving it a toy. This will consume some energy but raise their mood. Pets also have a favorite toy!
