Pyborg is a markov chain bot for many protocols (Discord, IRC, Twitter, etc.) that generates replies based on messages and it's database.
Install
We're on the cheeseshop! Yay!
pip install pyborg
If you want the latest version from git you'll need to install the project with poetry in the source directory.
Early test/beta releases can be found via:
pip install --pre pyborg
Note that we're using Python 3.8+ (for fancy type declarations).
Python 2 support was dropped with the release of pyborg 2.0.
There are several extras: "nlp", "systemd", "subtitles", "graphing". Some extras may be rather experimental like "graphing" at time of writing.
e.g. pip install pyborg[nlp]
Basic Usage
pyborg is our new unified pyborg command line interface.

Notes
Pyborg is skipping version 1.3; this was used for a transitory database/"brain" restructuring that was underwhelming.
Ancient original tarballs were hosted at Gna! which is now gone. Thankfully Internet Archive has a copy!
Pyborg was originally developed by Tom Morton and Sébastien Dailly.
Suggested NLTK data
Pyborg can use nltk tagging and tokenizing when installed and configured. Tagging requires averaged_perceptron_tagger and tokenization requires punkt. This needs the nlp extra.
