Cannot run without redunda_key.txt

I wanted to run a temporary instance of PulseMonitor without Redunda, so I removed redunda_key.txt.

If I recall correctly, this used to work; but now, I get a traceback:

2019-03-14 05:09:45,243:Pulse:[Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/home/pulsemonitor/.pulsemonitor/redunda_key.txt'
2019-03-14 05:09:45,244:Pulse:Bot is not integrated with Redunda.
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./Source/startup.py", line 19, in <module>
    Pulse("PulseMonitor", email, password, rooms=[65945])
  File "/home/pulsemonitor/PulseMonitor/Source/Pulse.py", line 44, in __init__
    bot.redunda_init(bot_version=self._get_current_hash())

    raise TypeError('Bot.redunda_init: "self._redunda_key" is not of type str!')
TypeError: Bot.redunda_init: "self._redunda_key" is not of type str!

Creating an empty redunda_key.txt in $HOME/,pulsemonitor fixes the immediate problem, but causes the bot to fail with a different error after a number of 404 errors.

Is Redunda an absolute requirement for BotPy now, or is there a way to make this work?
