Plixy
Plixy is a discord bot which falls under the productivity category and is made up from Discord.js.It is recommended that you use this bot on a Cloud Server if you have a low end machine.Some of the feature have been seperated so that the overall load on your system/server can be reduced if you don't want some specific functions.
Features
Auto-role assign
The bot assigns the role to every new member that joins the server,you need to make sure that the role the bot has to assign is already present in the server (role name: Newbie) if you want to add a different role name , open the index.js file, go to line number 216 and change Newbie to the other role name.
Swear Detector
Got some annoying members in the server or are you worried if someone would break the rules and use banned words?Just add it up in the array list on line number 211 of index.js file and the bot will automatically delete it and warn the users.
Music
You can now play music from Plixy without any problems... wanna know how?

This command lets you Play/Add to queue any song of your choice directly from Youtube and Soundcloud, now it's time for a great VC night isn't it?

To-Do Command
Wanna make a channel especially for a to-do list? Great idea now let's bring it to a reality, open your discord's settings and navigate to appearence where you have to enable developer mode. Now make a channel and name it anything of your choice, make sure that it's only the bot which can send messages there.Now right click on the channel name and click on copy channel ID.

Prevents server Advertising
Well looks like everyone have the same feeling when it comes to the annoying server advertising by bots/users in your server.. Not any more.. Plixy will directly remove any sort of link which has the frequently used keywords in it. Some of the links Plixy blocks are: 1.https://discordbots.org/servers/ 2.http://discordbots.org/servers/ 3.www.discordbots.org/servers/ 4.https://discord.gg/ 5.http://discord.gg/ 6.www.discord.gg/ Looking for any other links which are not mentioned in here? No problem, Just fire up your favourite text editor and open the index.js file from the bot's folder, navigate to line no.130 and copy-paste the same code as used there and include the links of your choice.
Useful Stats on the Console/Status
Want to know the stats of the servers the bot is running on? Well you can now check it out in the console when you start the bot It gives info about: 1.Number of Users 2.Number of channels 3.Number of guilds Too lazy to open up the console every time?Well we knew it that's why we also included a pre written user activity which shows the number of servers and users directly on the game status area of the bot!

Crptocurrency Stats
Got some crypto traders in the server and they want to keep a track on some crypto currencies? We have an optional function (crypto.js) it is linked with config.json so you just need to open up a new terminal and write (node crypto.js) for this function to start working. Commands are: '>global' '>price (symbol)' '>info (symbol)'
Note: We are having a public API for all our users which is limited to only 10,000 requests per month, if you want to have a private token of your own server you can go to https://coinmarketcap.com/ and get an API which you have to add in Line number : 17 of crypto.js)
Random choice
Confused between what drinks or dishes to choose or some other stuff? Use the command >random choices to get a random choice which can help you out in a better decision making. For example:
'>random pizza noodles pancake'
Super exclusive feature (Only for locally running bots)
Wanna know what is?? It is .... Drum rolls A home automation feature... wait what? Yes! a home automation feature! Let's Know more about it! We are using http://johnny-five.io/ which is an JavaScript Robotics & IoT Platform. What it can do is that it can communicate with IOT hardware (Arduino) from the ports of your local machine.So let's say if the server owner is going somewhere away from his native town for some work and he/she don't want their plants to be affected, what they can do is that they can set up a servo motor along with arduino and copy paste the code from http://johnny-five.io/examples/ and modify it in arduino.js in the Bot's folder . Once everything is set up now the owner just needs to use some specific command which the owners can set up by themselves to control the motor! This command should not be disclosed in public as it can turn out to be dangerous and the commands should be entered in a seperate channel with limited access (including the bot).
For now the only thing it can do is turn the LEDs on the arduino board ON and OFF.But once modified according to the owner's needs it can turn out to be a very useful feature.And since this is an optional feature it won't work till we initiate it using (node arduino.js) in the terminal, this will reduce the overall load on your system.
Here is an example video from some other source which has almost the same functionality as that of arduino.js
Installation
First of all make sure that you have node.js installed on your system. You can download node.js through :https://nodejs.org/en/ Once you are done with installing node.js you need to clone the git repo, for this you should have git installed on your system, for installation visit:https://git-scm.com/downloads . Open up your terminal and type git clone https://github.com/umair9747/Plixy/ it will clone the entire repo on your system, Now navigate to the directory where the repo was saved and then open up the config.json file, this is where the command prefix and the bot token is saved.We would however not recommend to change the command prefix.Go to // https://discordapp.com/developers/applications/ to add up the token for your bot (for further help regarding this visit : https://github.com/reactiflux/discord-irc/wiki/Creating-a-discord-bot-&-getting-a-token ) Now open up your terminal and navigate to the directory where the bot's repo is saved.Now follow these commands:
- cd Plixy
- npm install
- node index.js (if there are any errors, you just need to see in the terminal which module is missing and enter the command 'npm install modulename' Voila! Plixy Bot is Up and running!
