Bot to announce football events and tag the relevant team "owners" to either Slack or Discord using "Incoming Webhooks".
This bot is useful for keeping people involved in World Cup or other major football tournament sweepstakes, each country is assigned to a tag or full name. Tags are detected by checking for a preceding "@".
This bot then posts to Slack or Discord at the start or end of a match, tagging the relevant people involved in the match as well as the result of that match.
You can either head over to https://sweepstakes.plastonick.me and follow instructions from there, or continue reading to host the bot yourself.
You'll need to generate an api token at football-data.org, and an incoming webhook for your Slack or Discord channel.
Clone this repository, copy the .env.example to .env and input the relevant values for your use case.
Run by executing src/App.php, the process will continue indefinitely.
Generate your .env file from the .env.example in this repository, then run it using the command below, inserting the path to your .env file (if you're in the same directory, you can use `pwd`/.env)
