echo - Our homemade discord bot

What is this?

This is the bot that datalink's Discord server uses- you can try it out for yourself in our server!

Self Hosting

Feel free to fork and modify echo, or even self-host it! Below are instructions on how to do this:

Prerequisites:

• Node.JS
• PNPM/NPM/Yarn
• Docker & Docker Compose (optional)

Initially, set up a MySQL Database, preferrably using PlanetScale. Configure the .env file accordingly, an example is provided in .env.example.

Docker:

The primary method to host echo is using docker compose.

1. Clone the repository.

git clone https://github.com/datalinkhq/echo.git

2. Run the bot using docker-compose.

docker-compose up -d

3. To view the logs of the container:

docker compose logs -t -f

Locally:

Echo can be hosted without using docker compose as well.

1. Clone the repository.

git clone https://github.com/datalinkhq/echo.git

2. Install dependencies.

pnpm i

3. Build the bot and its schema.

pnpm run build && pnpm run generate

3. Run the bot.

pnpm run start:prod
