Depending on your Python installation, you might need to use one of the following:

- Python is not in PATH

    ```sh
    path/to/python.exe -m pip install pincer
    ```

- Python is in PATH but pip is not

    ```sh
    python -m pip install pincer
    ```

- Unix systems can use pip3/python3 commands

    ```sh
    pip3 install pincer
    ```

    ```sh
    python3 -m pip install pincer
    ```

- Using multiple Python versions

    ```sh
    py -m pip install pincer
    ```

</details>

## Current Features

- Dispatcher
- Logging
- HTTP Client
- Client base class
- Basic events

*The documentation has been improved!*

**Client base class example:**

```py
from pincer.client import Bot

# Note that both `Bot` and `Client` are valid!
bot = Bot("...")
bot.run()
```

**An example on the `on_ready` event**

```py
from time import perf_counter
from pincer.client import Client

client = Client("...")


@client.event
async def on_ready():
    print(f"Logged in as {client.bot} after {perf_counter()} seconds")


client.run()
```

### Inherited client

You have the possibility to use your own class to inherit from the Pincer bot base.

```py
class Bot(Client):

    def __init__(self) -> None:
        super(Bot, self).__init__(token='...')

    @Client.event
    async def on_ready(self) -> None:
        ...
```

See an advanced bot implementation:

> <https://github.com/Pincer-org/Pincer-bot>

### Advanced Usage

__Warning: These features are meant for advanced developers to make early experimentation with Pincer.__

#### Enable the debug mode

_If you want to see everything that is happening under the hood,
either out of curiosity or to get a deeper insight into the implementation
of some features, we provide debug logging!_

```py
import logging

logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG)
```
**Note:** _A lot of printing can happen, including sensitive information,
so make sure to be aware of what you're doing if you're enabling it!_


#### Middleware
_Within the version 0.4.0-dev, the middleware system has been re-created,
and now advanced users can utilize them; however, it should be done carefully._
