If you wish to add a Discord webhook to receive notifications when the login helper runs, you can add another key value DISCORD_WEBHOOK. Look at the end of the page to see where you can get your webhook.
- Go to Resources tab and add the Heroku Scheduler add-on, don't worry this is free
- Create a new job, set it to run everyday at the time you wish (time is in UTC)
For the command, put python run.py
If you want to test to see if your script will run go back to your command window and type heroku run bash. After you are loaded in, type python run.py and check.
If you no longer want to check in automatically, you can disable/delete the scheduler
This is an OPTIONAL step to let the script send you a notification on Discord whenever it runs a check-in.
- Edit channel settings. (Create your own discord server or private channel for this)
- Go into Integrations and view webhooks.
- Create a new webhook and copy the URL.
- Go back to the "Settings" tab on the app and add a new KEY called DISCORD_WEBHOOK and paste in the URL.
To stop receiving Discord notifications, delete your DISCORD_WEBHOOK secret.
