go-discord-bot

This Go module provides basic functionality for a Discord bot that provides useful capabilities in all of the Discord servers I actively assist with.

Usage

Ensure you have Go installed first:

CGO_ENABLED=0 go build -v

# prints help
./go-discord-bot -h

Features

• responds to ping/pong messages, but only in specified channels via the -c flag
• message logging into a jsonl file
• presence detection (server leave/join events) into a jsonl file
• writes scheduled events to a json file for subscribed servers, with periodic refreshing (defaults to checking every hour)

Future features

May implement but no guarantees:

• checking if users have no roles (they skipped onboarding and should be nudged)
• add a couple / slash commands
  • add /donate command to be taken to a page to donate
• add feedback modal slash command to allow members to provide feedback/suggestions
