Kalb's first child, reborn from its ashes after a fierce battle against Discord's API.
You will first need to install nodejs and yarn. The latter can be obtained by running npm i -g yarn after installing node, or through your package manager on some distros.
To run the bot, you'll first need to provide a token in a file named .env:
BOT_TOKEN=your.bot.token.here
Once everything is setup you can simply run ./run.sh in the top folder. It will download all the dependencies, compile the the project and run it.
Alternatively, a simple Dockerfile is provided if you wish to containerise your application. Simply run the following commands to build and run the program:
docker build -t kalb .
docker run --rm -it kalb
Before publishing it, be aware that the .env file is included in the image. Moreover, you will need to rebuild the image if you make changes to the schedule.
The schedule.json file contains all the scheduled tasks. They consist of:
- The name of the voice channel to create.
- The id of the category in which it will be created.
- The id of a channel in which the announcement will be posted.
- The message to post on creation.
- The message to post on deletion.
- When to create the channel.
- When to delete the channel.
ID can be acquired by turning on Developer Mode in Discord's settings, and right-clicking on the item we want the ID of.
The times for creations are given in the following cron format: ss mm hh dm mm dw, more information here.
