discord-dragon-bot

My personal Node.js Discord bot featuring a vast library of commands with near-endless customization. Its main prefix is 🐉.

Installation

npm install DragonOfMath/discord-dragon-bot

Setup

Pass an object to the client constructor with the following keys:

{
	"token":   "...", // Discord auth token
	"ownerID": "...", // your Discord ID, not your name or discriminator
	"permissions": 268790902, // or some other value
	"apiKeys": {...} // additional API keys
}

Links

• Here is where you get your OAuth token.
• Here is where you can calculate the permissions you need.

Database

• analytics for counting command usage
• block for the client's block list
• permissions for storing permission settings for commands
• moderation for moderation housekeeping
• client for keeping global data for the bot; used by the Mandelbrot and Reminder modules
• servers is required for moderation, and is used by the CAH, blacklist, and greeting modules
• channels is unused for now
• roles is used by the Roles module
• users is used by the Fishing and Pokemon modules

Commands

• DragonBot's main prefix is the dragon emoji "🐉", but can also have custom prefixes.
• There are over 500 commands built into the client, and many more on the way.
• Commands are broken into categories, subcommands, and even metacommands.
• Commands can be restricted to privileged users, the bot owner, or to any whitelist/blacklist of users/servers/channels.

See src/Commands/README.md for an in-depth guide on command usage.

Sessions

• These are multi-purpose data structures made to retain data or provide special responses.
• They can be loaded from modules and remain active while the bot is online.
• They can be generated on the fly and expire after a period of time.
• They can receive messages and respond if necessary.
• They can trigger events or be called each 1-second cycle.

See src/Sessions/README.md for more information on sessions.

Database

• DragonBot uses a homemade JSON database framework. It's not the best for large-scale use, but it's great for my experimenting.
• The tables are loaded into memory during initialization and only writes to their files when called.
• It requires many of the listed tables to function correctly.

See src/Database/README.md for more details about the database and how to use it.
