Running the bot

Either use environment variables with:

• (OPTIONAL, but recommended) Setup API key with export APIKey='jaoehoagheraghpreuihgape'
• Setup bot name (how to call the bot) with export name='ips'
• Setup the room the bot watches with export room_id='63296'

Or you can create a settings.yml file with the form:
