https://github.com/theSEClub/slides-bot/releases

Manual Installation

Download

to install and run the bot first you have to clone or download the repository.

git clone https://github.com/theSEClub/slides-bot
cd slides-bot

Initialize the environment

then we recommend initializing a virtual environment, but it's not necessary.

python -m venv /venv

then you need to activate the virtual environment, on Linux and MacOS:

source ./venv/bin/activate

on Windows:

./venv/Scripts/activate

Install the dependencies

make sure to choose the right version of pip, in the virtual environment it's usually pip3

pip install -r requirements.txt

for apple silicon CPUs (M1, M2, ...) you will face an issue with mediapipe package, so you will need to remove it from the requirements file and install this package instead:

pip install mediapipe-silicon

Run the bot

simply run the main.py file

python3 main.py

or

python main.py
