This GitBook is for documenting the phBot plugin API.

Python is a widely used general-purpose, high-level programming language. Its design philosophy emphasizes code readability, and its syntax allows programmers to express concepts in fewer lines of code than would be possible in languages such as C++ or Java.
Python 3.4/3.8 was chosen for the plugin system because it is easy to learn and does not require a compiler. Simply save your script inside the Plugins folder and launch the bot. Done!
There is a forum section dedicated to plugins where you can publish your plugins and get help if you require it.
You may also join our and ask your questions there!
I have made many functions available to Python. These functions allow you to get all players near you, get all NPCs/teleporters near you, and much more. You can do anything you want with the data. It's all up to you.
For example, a chat API is available; with this you can send messages to all nearby players.
You'll need the new stable release of phBot and the python34 scripts which you can get by clicking . It comes with an example script named example.py, which can be deleted.
It is not necessary to install Python for phBot plugins to function.
