## Description

Twitch API

A stupid simple Library that allows you to subscribe to events from Twitch Chat, with additional metadata such as Badges, Emotes, whether or not a user is Moderator, Subscriber, Turbo, ect.

Here's how you do suff via code:

using TwitchAPI;

public class MyComponent : Component
{
 TwitchChatConnection TwitchChat;
 List<TwitchChatMessage> MessageHistory { get; set; }

 protected override void OnEnabled()
 {
 // Connect to the Chat
 TwitchChat = new TwitchChatConnection("CarsonKompon");

 // Subscribe to the different events
 TwitchChat.OnMessageReceieved += OnMessageReceieved;
 TwitchChat.OnMessagesCleared += OnMessagesCleared;
 }

 protected override void OnDisabled()
 {
 if(TwitchChat is null) return;

 // Disconnect/Dispose of the connection
 TwitchChat?.Dispose();

 // Un-subscribe from the events
 TwitchChat.OnMessageReceieved -= OnMessageReceieved;
 TwitchChat.OnMessagesCleared -= OnMessagesCleared;
 }

 void OnMessageReceived(TwitchChatMessage message)
 {
 // Add the message to the message history
 MessageHistory.Add(message);

 // "!test" command that only works for Moderators and subs
 if(message.Message == "!test" && (message.User.IsModerator || message.User.IsSubscriber))
 {
 Log.Info("Testing!");
 return;
 }

 // Otherwise, print the message to the console
 Log.Info($"{message.Username}: {message.Message}");
 }

 void OnMessagesCleared()
 {
 // Clear the message history
 MessageHistory.Clear();
 }
}

There's also a TwitchComponent included which can be used for simple ActionGraph-based solutions.
