# Live Chat Widget - Implementation Summary

## Overview

A comprehensive live chat widget system has been implemented that supports both Twitch and YouTube live chat with extensive emote support (FrankerFaceZ, BetterTTV, 7TV) and real-time WebSocket streaming to OBS.

## Architecture

### Frontend Components

1. **Chat Widget** (`app/assets/web/widgets/livechat/`)
   - `index.html` - Minimal HTML structure
   - `style.css` - Styled chat interface with platform indicators, badges, animations
   - `app.js` - WebSocket client, message rendering, emote parsing, auto-scroll

2. **Configuration UI** (`app/assets/web/config.html`)
   - Platform authentication controls
   - Channel/video configuration
   - Emote provider toggles
   - Display settings
   - Real-time status indicators

### Backend Components

1. **Data Models** (`app/chat_models.py`)
   - `Platform` - Enum for Twitch/YouTube
   - `UserRole` - Broadcaster, Mod, VIP, Subscriber, Viewer
   - `Emote` - Code, URL, provider, animation flag
   - `ChatBadge` - Badge name and icon
   - `ChatUser` - User ID, name, color, roles, badges
   - `ChatMessage` - Complete message with user, text, emotes, timestamp
   - `AuthTokens` - OAuth token storage with expiry
   - `ChatConfig` - All widget configuration options

2. **State Management** (`app/state.py`)
   - Extended `AppState` with:
     - `chat_messages` - Deque of recent messages (max 100)
     - `chat_config` - Current configuration
     - `twitch_tokens` / `youtube_tokens` - OAuth credentials
   - Methods for adding messages and broadcasting to WebSocket clients

3. **Twitch Integration** (`app/providers/twitch_chat.py`)
   - IRC WebSocket client (`wss://irc-ws.chat.twitch.tv:443`)
   - Supports anonymous and authenticated connections
   - IRC message parsing (PRIVMSG, tags, badges, emotes)
   - Emote loading from:
     - Twitch native (from IRC tags)
     - FrankerFaceZ API (global + channel)
     - BetterTTV API (global + channel)
     - 7TV API (global + channel)
   - Auto-reconnect on disconnect

4. **YouTube Integration** (`app/providers/youtube_chat.py`)
   - YouTube Live Chat API polling client
   - OAuth required (YouTube Data API v3)
   - Fetches live chat ID from video
   - Polls for new messages with adaptive interval
   - Parses user roles (owner, moderator, sponsor)

5. **Authentication System** (`app/auth.py`)
   - OAuth flow handlers for Twitch and YouTube
   - Token storage in `%LOCALAPPDATA%/StreamerWidgets/tokens.json`
   - Automatic token loading on startup
   - Browser-based authentication with popup windows
   - Callback URL handling at `/auth/{platform}/callback`

6. **Chat Manager** (`app/chat_manager.py`)
   - Coordinates Twitch and YouTube clients
   - Starts/stops based on configuration
   - Manages asyncio tasks for each platform
   - Graceful shutdown and restart

7. **WebServer Updates** (`app/webserver.py`)
   - Added livechat widget to WIDGETS list
   - `/api/chat/messages` - Get recent messages
   - `/api/chat/config` - GET/POST configuration
   - `/config` - Configuration UI page
   - OAuth routes registered via `register_auth_routes()`
   - Enhanced WebSocket to send chat history on connect

8. **Main Integration** (`app/main.py`)
   - Load saved OAuth tokens on startup
   - Initialize and start ChatManager
   - Graceful shutdown of chat connections

## API Endpoints

### Widget Access
- `GET /widgets/livechat/` - Chat widget HTML
- `GET /config` - Configuration page

### REST API
- `GET /api/chat/messages?limit=50` - Fetch recent messages
- `GET /api/chat/config` - Get current configuration
- `POST /api/chat/config` - Update configuration

### WebSocket
- `GET /ws` - Real-time message stream
  - Sends `chat_history` on connect
  - Sends `chat_message` for each new message

### OAuth
- `GET /auth/twitch/login` - Initiate Twitch OAuth
- `GET /auth/twitch/callback` - Twitch OAuth callback
- `GET /auth/youtube/login` - Initiate YouTube OAuth
- `GET /auth/youtube/callback` - YouTube OAuth callback

## Configuration Requirements

### For Twitch (Optional OAuth)
Users who want authenticated Twitch access need to:
1. Create app at https://dev.twitch.tv/console/apps
2. Set redirect URI to `http://localhost:8765/auth/twitch/callback`
3. Edit `app/auth.py` with Client ID and Secret

Anonymous reading works without OAuth.

### For YouTube (Required OAuth)
Users need to:
1. Create Google Cloud project
2. Enable YouTube Data API v3
3. Create OAuth credentials (Web application)
4. Set redirect URI to `http://localhost:8765/auth/youtube/callback`
5. Edit `app/auth.py` with Client ID and Secret

## Usage Flow

1. **Start Server**: `uv run streamer-widgets --tray`
2. **Configure** (if using OAuth):
   - Visit http://127.0.0.1:8765/config
   - Click "Login with Twitch" or "Login with YouTube"
   - Authorize in browser popup
3. **Set Channel/Video**:
   - Enter Twitch channel name
   - Enter YouTube video ID
   - Save configuration
4. **Add to OBS**:
   - Create Browser Source
   - URL: `http://127.0.0.1:8765/widgets/livechat/`
   - Size: 400x600 (or custom)
5. **Chat appears in OBS** with live updates

## Technical Highlights
