Using GitHub pull and repository

Downloading necessary files

Source code as zip-files

1. Get the current source code from Code.
2. Get the current version of the RocketAPI we use from RocketAPI
3. Unzip the source code for PokeMobBot
4. Unzip the RocketAPI so the folder structure matches PokeMobBot\Pokemon-Go-Rocket-API\PokemonGo.RocketAPI\

1. open your terminal (you should have git for windows installed)
2. change to the folder where you want to clone the files to and type into terminal
3. git clone --recursive https://github.com/PocketMobsters/PokeMobBot.git

1. Ensure you are in PokeMobBot root directory
2. Run git submodule update --force

Pull specific commit or pull request

Setup

1. Open PokeMobBot for Pokemon Go.sln.
2. Right click on PoGo.PokeMobBot.CLI and click on Set as Startup Project.
3. Press CTRL + F5

• If this is the first execution of PokeMobBot in this directory, it will generate the config/auth JSON files and then automatically close.

4. Navigate to the bin/debug/Config/auth.json file
5. Change AuthType to google or ptc based on your login type
6. Enter your username and password with quotes around them. You can find an example below.

• For Google logins, use GoogleUsername and GooglePassword.

  • If the Google login uses 2-factor authentication, you will need to follow additional steps described here.

• For PTC logins, use PTCUsername and PTCPassword.

{ "AuthType": "google", "GoogleRefreshToken": null, "PtcUsername": null, "PtcPassword": null, "GoogleUsername": "[email protected]", "GooglePassword": "howdyhowdyhowdy" }

7. Save the auth.json file
8. Edit bin/debug/Config/config.json with your desired settings
 * The defaults settings are generic so you WILL have to modify these to match what you expect from PokeMobBot.
 * The [Config](https://github.com/PocketMobsters/PokeMobBot/wiki/Config) wiki page has more details about these settings
 * For GPX Path Setup, follow the guide at [GPX Pathing Setup](https://github.com/PocketMobsters/PokeMobBot/wiki/Getting-Started#gpx-pathing-setup)
 * For Sniping Setup, follow the guide at [Sniping Setup](https://github.com/PocketMobsters/PokeMobBot/wiki/Sniping-Setup)
9. Put your latitude and longitude values in the `DefaultLatitude` and `DefaultLongitude` variables 
 * You can find GPS coordinates [here](http://mondeca.com/index.php/en/any-place-en) to fit your desired location.
10. Save the config.json file
11. Press `CTRL + F5` and follow the instructions.
 * If you are using a Google account to login which is setup with 2-factor authentication, PokeMobBot will open a Google page in your default browswer and request for your 2-factor token.
12. Make sure to read up on the [FAQ](https://github.com/PocketMobsters/PokeMobBot/wiki/FAQ) and [Common Issues](https://github.com/PocketMobsters/PokeMobBot/wiki/Common-Issues) sections with any issues.
