If you have Docker, Lytebot can be started with a single command:

$ docker run -v ~/.config/lytebot:/root/.config/lytebot lytebot

Alternatively, you can run Lytebot without Docker. We recommend using something like supervisord, but you can just run lytebot & to start Lytebot in the background.

$ git clone https://github.com/muse/Lytebot
$ cd Lytebot
$ ./setup.py install

This will put the executable lytebot in your path.

To use the bot, you need to put the example configuration file in ~/.config/lytebot/config.yml with your Telegram token.

If you wish to use owner commands, you need to set the owner(s) usernames in ~/.config/lytebot/config.yml. The same goes for the Imgur commands, you'll need to put your Imgur ID and secret in the config file.

If something breaks or goes wrong, you can see the log file found in ~/.config/lytebot.
