StudyBot

StudyBot is a Discord bot which helps you get smarter! It allows you to study from various question banks from all sorts of disciplines, and allows you to add your own too. StudyBot is written in Python using dis-snek. It uses MongoDB for persistence, and interfaces with Google Sheets API to read user-generated question banks.

Adding/Updating Packages

If you are contributing, and would like to add a new library to the code, please make sure you add it to requirements.in. You will then need to update requirements.txt, following the below steps.

Ensure the pip-tools package is installed on your system. If not, install it with pip install pip-tools.
Update the requirements.in with the names of the new packages you want to add. (optional)
Run pip-compile requirements.in > requirements.txt, or run pip-compile requirements.in and copy the output to replace the contents of requirements.txt.
