See requirements.txt for library dependencies. The easiest way to install them is with pip. Built using python 2.7.3.

Setup instructions:

1. Install dependencies with pip install -r requirements.txt.
2. create a config.cfg file with keys for 'wolfram' and 'rottentomatoes' sections.*
3. create a files directory with messages.json and user_info.json inside of it.
4. create a log directory for the log files.

*your config file should be in the standard cfg/ini format http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/INI_file#Example.

If you don't have pip, use easy install or apt-get to get it

Ubuntu/Debian Installation:

You will probably need the libxml2-dev and libxslt-dev packages (for BeautifulSoup, used for scrapers).

apt-get install libxml2-dev libxslt-dev

Mac Installation:

You will need Xcode with commandline tools installed and (probably?) the libxml packages mentioned above

Windows Installation:

If you get it running on windows and have easy to follow steps, feel free to udpate this.

Basic usage:

python AL.py <server> <port> <channel> <logfile>
