Streamer.bot v1.0.0

Next Major Version!

Welcome to Streamer.bot 1.0 BETA! Yes, you read that right! Streamer.bot 1.0 is now available for those with the beta role.

Be sure to read my latest letter to the community before diving headfirst into this update. Come see what Streamer.bot 1.0 BETA has to offer!

What’s New?

Dark Mode

Let’s start with one of the most anticipated features: Dark Mode. Streamer.bot 1.0 received a complete redesign of its UI, along with Dark Mode. For those that still wish to have a Light Mode, there is an option to switch.

Kick Integration

Probably the second most requested feature is Kick Integration. I’m happy to announce that Streamer.bot 1.0 now supports Kick natively. At first, during the alpha when this was announced, it was planned that access to Kick integration would be a supporter perk because it needed a connection to the website to work. However, since my letter to the community in July, the support has been very positive, so I have decided to make the Kick integration free for use. Yes, you read that right! I’ve removed the supporter perk requirement for Kick, and anyone can use it for free.

Cloud Backups

Streamer.bot has always created its own backups every time it is started, but with 1.0 as a supporter perk, users will be able to create and upload backups to Streamer.bot’s servers which can be recovered at any time.

Custom Webhooks

Streamer.bot currently supports 4 services through webhooks: Patreon, Kofi, Fourthwall, and Shopify. Since Webhooks require an intermediary site with full SSL capabilities typically, Custom Webhooks are being introduced as a supporter perk. These will allow users to create their own webhooks to (almost) any site that supports them. Note: There will be a few sites that will be outright denied from creating webhooks for, largely for volume reasons, and this will be monitored for abuse.

Decks 2.0

Already released, and available for everyone to use, Streamer.bot’s decks have gotten a massive overhaul thanks to the ongoing efforts of Whistickgostop. Decks will remain mostly free; however, supporter perks will raise some of the free limits on them.

Other Notable Changes

  • Nestable sub-action groups
  • Updates to Logic If/Else sub-action – sub-action can be directly added to them
  • New Logic sub-actions – Switch and While
  • C# Code editor now uses Monaco
  • HotKeys are now triggers and support any key combination
  • Support for YouTube’s new PushAPI (near real-time chat and more efficient quota usage)
  • The ability to host your own files from the integrated HTTP Server
  • ... and so much more! This is just a taste of the major updates that are available in Streamer.bot 1.0, so be sure to also check the changelog available on the website to get a more detailed breakdown of the fixes, changes, and additions that come with 1.0.

To access your supporter perks, login to Patreon in your Streamer.bot Account Settings. Moving forward, all roles related to supporter perks and alpha access will be handled this way.

If you wish to support me, or this project, please head over to https://www.patreon.com/nate1280. Remember, supporter perks start at the Thank You tier, which for the duration of the beta is only $2 a month with the option to support for a year. Once Streamer.bot 1.0 is released as stable, this will increase to $3.

Details

Surprise! This has been many months in the making, but there is finally a new UI in town, and it's been completely re-written in WPF. This means I'll have so much more flexibility. In addition to that, there is now a Dark Mode, the most requested feature.

Now for the bad news, I have not tested this, so I'm not sure how this will effect extensions that use custom designed WinForms dialogs for settings and such. The conversion to WPF is quite simple, and I will likely post a small template at some point to get you started.

Now, this is an alpha, this means there will be bugs, that is the whole point of it entering this stage first. If you wish to use this as your daily driver, be aware, things may or may not function correctly.

Want access to alpha, subscribe to nate1280's Patreon. alpha access now starts at Bronze Tier or higher.

Sub-Actions

Sub-actions got a bit of an overhaul as well, before, groups could only be top level items, now, they can be nested as much as you want, more flexibility when using the random option on a group now.

Logic If/Else

Logic If/Else has received a power-up, no longer do you need to specify an action to run for the true/false parts, you can now just add your sub-actions directly to the true/false groups, and because these are containers, that means you can nest groups as well.

Logic Switch

New with this release is a new Logic sub-action, the Switch Case. Same applies to this sub-action, add your logic switch, and you can add case groups, which can in turn have sub-actions nested in them

Logic While

New with this release is the Logic While sub-action. Yes, that means you can finally perform loops within a single action without needing C#!

Global (Set) Sub-Action Changes

The Argument source has been removed, and there is now only Value, Increment and Decrement.

The Value source now supports parsing and inline methods as well as an auto-type option. Increment and Decrement have been updated to support parsing and inline methods.

Configuration upgrades will happen and update any Global (Set) sub-actions, this will change any that are set to Argument and update the value to be surrounded by %, and change it to Value source type. Upgrades will also happen for Imports.

Inline Function,

A new function has been added, $parse()$, that will allow for a 2nd level of variable parsing.

This would be of benefit for the newly added Logic While sub-action.

As an example, ff you are using the global ~idx~ as your test variable, and incrementing this within the while loop. You would then be able to use the inline method like $parse(rawInput~idx~)$ which would internally parse to %rawInput#%, and finally would return the value of the %rawInput#% argument. In this example, rawInput is the argument you're wanting to get an indexed position of, this is typically used in most Message based triggers

Twitch

Twitch PubSub is being deprecated in April, so that means it's finally time to remove PubSub from the connection list for the Broadcaster Account.

What this means, the Ad Mid Roll sub-action no longer exists (to this day, still really don't know what it did), Channel Point Community Goals will cease to work until they're added to EventSub, and the Viewer count pulse has been updated to use other methods.

Twitch Shared Chat

Handling of Twitch Shared Chat has been updated a bit, there are now 3 arguments added to most Twitch events.

  • isInSharedChat - This will indicate if the event happened while in a Shared Chat,
  • isSharedChatHost - This will indicate if the Broadcaster is the host of the Shared Chat,
  • isFromSharedChatGuest - This will indicate if the event is from a Shared Chat's Guest's Channel, These 3 arguments are in all Shared Chat events, as well as the non-shared chat event counter parts.

Quotes

Quotes got a small overhaul, the built in !quote command is no more, it has been replaced with various sub-actions, so you now have full control over adding, deleting quotes by any means.

HTTP Server

You read that right, you can now serve local files with the HTTP Server! Simply add a Path Mapping to the HTTP Server settings, and you can access any file/folder from that Mapping.

The current methods are being moved to an /api/ prefix, and they will continue to work for now but consider them deprecated, and will eventually be removed. Be sure to update any usages to use the /api/ equivalent.

Voicemod

The Voicemod integration has been udpated to support v3, and version 3.12 is now the minimum required version for the integration.

With the update, the Voicemod Set Censor State sub-action was removed, as well as 2 C# methods, VoiceModCensorOn() and VoiceModCensorOff(), as the methods for these no longer work.

Kick Platform

Yes, you read that right, as of alpha.37, Streamer.bot now supports Kick as an official platform. Be sure to read the previous information in alpha-releases or announcements.

Overall the Kick API is still a bit of a mess, and everything that can be implemented has been. And as mentioned, to use this platform integration, you must link your Kick account on the website as well!

There are new sub-actions and triggers for Kick, support for Kick Message as a Command source, Kick will show up in the chat as well as obs overlay chat.

How To Link Kick

Due to the way Kick is setup, you will need to not only login to Kick within Streamer.bot, you will also need to login to the Streamer.bot Website, and link your Kick account there to.

After this, you will be able to connect to the client. It requires you to be logged into Streamer.bot, bottom-left corner of your Streamer.bot window.

Cloud Backup

You will be able to manually create backups that are encrypted and uploaded to Streamer.bot's* website, as well as being able to restore from these backups.

Custom Webhooks

You will be able to create custom webhooks, and have the data forwarded to your Streamer.bot, much like the existing webhooks, except they can be used for any site that supports webhooks. This feature will be monitored for abuse and limits put in place if anything like this is detected

Decks 2.0

They've been teased for a while, but Decks 2.0 are also here! This includes a handful of sub-actions to interact with the decks themselves, much like Elgato Stream Deck

There are also 6 new sub-actions allowing you to set various properties/values of deck buttons.

New Website

Whipstickgostop has been hard at work, and there is a new website that launched alongside this update, both as a refresh and to support all the new features.
