SA:MP Forum Discord Bot
Development
This project is open to anyone who wants to contribute, large or small! Whether you noticed a typo or want to add a
whole new feature, go for it!
Large additions should be discussed in issues or on Discord first. If you're new to Golang, ask me on Discord for where
to start and you can use CJ as a starting point for a contribution.
Testing/Workflow
To run the app, you need:
- A Discord server to test - you can't use the SA:MP Discord to do tests
- Go 1.11 - no guarantees on older versions
- A Discord bot with the 'Server Members Intent' enabled
If you don't own/admin a Discord server, creating one is simple, you can do it from the same menu you join discord
servers from.
Running with a database
If you want to develop features that require persisting data, spin up a MongoDB database. If you have Docker installed,
this is as simple as running make mongodb
which will start a MongoDB container with a user root
that has no
password. If you don't have Docker, you'll need to
install MongoDB onto your system..
Running without a database
If you don't need a database for your feature, just add NO_DATABASE=true
to .env
.
Finally, the application requires some configuration. Copy the example.env
to .env
and modify it to use your token
and various IDs. Depending on what you're working on, some values won't be necessary.
Now you can build and run the application with make local
.
