How to use
Make sure you have installed all of dependencies and filled settings.json properly. You can also use pip install -r requirements.txt to install dependencies automatically. If you are using Raspberry Pi you won't have newest Python version installed, you can use this guide.
When you are sure everything is fine, go to root directory with all of script files and use python rcgcdw.py or python3 rcgcdw.pycommand to run the script.
Here is how you can setup the script in just few commands on a Linux distribution.
$ git clone https://gitlab.com/piotrex43/RcGcDw.git
$ cd RcGcDw
$ pip3 install -r requirements.txt
$ nano config.json.example
$ mv config.json.example config.json
$ python3 rcgcdw.py
Free (?) hosting
If you want I can host the script for you for free. Just contact me. If you want to go with this option, be aware that this is far from the best option, I host all of the scripts on my Raspberry PI, it can go down at any moment, I try to keep every script running, but obviously sometimes it's just not possible. So, choosing this option, don't expect 100% uptime. The only requirement if you want to go with this option, is that the wiki is somewhat active.

Other
Script seem to use about 10-17MB of RAM and negligible amount of CPU when fetching changes.
Script does not log bot actions by default.
"I GoT "Unable to process the event" mESSage!!! WHaT HApND?" - it means there is some kind of action that does not have a template in the script, please create a ticket with information on what wiki this error ocurred and when.
Here are screenshots of how few embeds look like.
