README

Overview

Personal Discord bot serving as a sandbox for various interesting APIs. Used discordgo's pingpong example bot as a starting base.

The bot currently listens to messages in the Discord server and performs an action if given a command. Valid commands are prefixed with ,,, and there are two commands:

• ,,recipe
• ,,ps2

Recipe

The recipe command takes one argument, recipe-name, and calls TheMealDB API to search for a recipe by name. Then the URL to the recipe is returned.

,,recipe stew chicken

PlanetSide

The ps2 command has two subcommands which interact with the PlanetSide 2 API (Census), certs and alert. The certs subcommand takes one argument, player-name, and returns that player's certs.

,,ps2 certs cakeisnice

The alert subcommand returns a list of active Alerts within the past hour in PlanetSide 2 Emerald server along with the duration since each one has started in minutes.

,,ps2 alert
