1. Run TJBot Bootstrap Script

Prepare your Raspberry Pi for becoming a TJBot [instructions]

2. Create Watson Services

Before running any recipes, you will need to obtain credentials for the Watson services used by those recipes. You can obtain these credentials as follows:

  1. Sign up for a free IBM Cloud account at https://cloud.ibm.com if you do not have one already.
  2. Log in to IBM Cloud and create an instance of the Watson services you plan to use. The Watson services are listed on the IBM Cloud dashboard, under "Catalog". The Watson services used by TJBot are Assistant, Language Translator, Speech to Text, Text to Speech, Tone Analyzer, and Visual Recognition.
  3. For each service, click the "Create" button on the bottom right of the page to create an instance of the service.
  4. Click the "Download" link in the "Credentials" section of the page.
  5. Save the ibm-credentials.env file(s) in the folder of the recipe you wish to use.

💡 Note: If you have credentials files from multiple services, you can combine their contents into a single file.

3. Run Test Scipts

Test that your TJBot's hardware is working properly [instructions]
