Etiket - Dead Simple Tags

Etiket is a simple tag bot that offers very few features execpt for its main one: Tags.

What are Tags you ask? They're bits of text that you repeat often and want to save somewhere so that you - or anyone else on your server - can call up at any time to answer frequently asked questions.

Tags can be used to provide information, contact, instructions, or on the other hand can be filled with memes and jokes and all the shitposting you want. It's up to you to determine how tags are used!

Prerequisites

Don't want to bother installing this yourself and just want to use the bot yourself? Sure, just invite it here!

Etiket runs on node.js and uses the Discord.js library. It uses a MongoDB database as a back-end.

It requires the following:

git command line (Windows|Linux|MacOS) installed
Nodejs 7.6 or higher
a machine to host it on. Want it to be online 24/7? Get a VPS. I suggest OVH (no there are no good free hosts).
A MongoDB instance. If you do not have one, there are online free ones. For testing, check out mLab which has a free sandbox option (not backed up).

Installation

In a command prompt in your projects folder (wherever that may be) run the following:

git clone https://github.com/eslachance/etiket.git

Once finished:

In the folder from where you ran the git command, run cd etiket and then run npm i
Rename config.js.example to config.js
Edit config.js and enter your token and other details as indicated.
Execute node initlangs.js. This will import all the language strings into the database.

First Start

To start etiket, in the command prompt, run the following command: node .

If at any point it says "cannot find module X" just run npm install X and try again.
