    { "username": "BOT USERNAME", "token": "BOT TOKEN", "admins": [ "YOUR TELEGRAM ID" ] }

  3. Create your own Wit token on Wit website

  4. Edit the file config/wit.json (for example with italian token)

    $ python3 -m pip install --upgrade pip $ pip3 install virtualenv setuptools

  3. Create the virtual environment while you specify the version of Python you wish to use

    $ virtualenv -p /usr/bin/python3 venv

  5. Install the requirement packages

    (venv) $ pip3 install -r requirements.txt

Installation with Docker

You can install easily with Docker.

  1. Run the script dockerBuild.sh to generate the docker image from the Dockerfile.

  2. Run the script dockerRun.sh to create and start the docker container.

    In the run script, the docker directories config, data and values are binding with the repository directory. If you want to edit the files in the configuration directories you can do this simply by stopping the container. As soon as you finish editing the files, just restart the container to make them active.
