Command Rate Limiter
Hamsterland opened this issue · 4 comments
Description
A command rate limiter or cooldown mechanic would surely be a welcome mechanic.
Example:
> !daily
> You must wait <time> until you can use this command again
Why This is Needed
It is a useful extension that other popular libraries have.
Alternatives Considered
Users could simply store the last invocation of a command themselves, but implementations of this could vary wildly. I think it would be better to create a robust package for all users to use.
Additional Details
I am unsure whether it should be an extension in Remora.Discord.Extensions or be a fundamental addition to Remora.Discord or Remora.Discord.Commands.
I'd be happy to take up this issue if it is the former.
Considering cooldowns is primarily a social-based concept, I think it's better to put it in the former.
@Nihlus Is this something I can proceed with?
So this is not something I'd see us adding to the main library - feel free to make your own!
I've sort of started on this previously? Most of the groundwork is in my bot repo
