This bot keeps statistics for players and minigames. It uploads the database file to a discord channel every once in a while as a backup. (same for prefixes.json file)

Requirements

Check requirements.txt for a list of all the libraries that you need.
To install them all:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Additionally, you need to install 'svgexport' from https://www.npmjs.com/package/svgexport. This is necessary to convert the svg (given by chess library) to a PNG, so it can be uploaded to Discord.

IMPORTANT in case you run this on a Raspberry Pi:

Install node
Install chromium-browser
Install puppeteer
Install svgexport
In svgexport go to render.js, then edit lines 21 to 23 like this:

  var browser = await puppeteer.launch({
    product: 'chrome',
    executablePath: '/usr/bin/chromium-browser'
    headless: true,
    args: ['--no-sandbox', '--font-render-hinting=none']
  });

assuming chromium-browser is located in in '/usr/bin'
