Configuration
If you have not yet installed the bot, please go to the installation guide.
The bot is configured through environment variables. These variables can be set using a file that the bot reads when it starts.
Create a new file inside the tf2-automatic folder and call it .env and add the variables like in the template.env file.
An alternative to environment files is the PM2 ecosystem file.
You are only required to add 4 variables, they are STEAM_ACCOUNT_NAME, STEAM_PASSWORD, STEAM_IDENTITY_SECRET and STEAM_SHARED_SECRET. You can get the identity secret and shared secret by authenticating the account with Steam Desktop Authenticator.
The bot is made in a way so that you only need to give it an account and it will do the rest for you. If the environment variables BPTF_ACCESS_TOKEN or BPTF_API_KEY are missing, then the bot will sign in to backpack.tf by itself and get the API key and access token. The bot will also set the trade offer url on backpack.tf, meaning that you don't need to sign in to backpack.tf at all to set up the bot.
