gearbot

A simple bot using a database and some basic commands to keep track of a discord channel topic.

I've only tested this on Linux and MacOS. It should work on Windows but you're on your own.

Dependencies

• DPP Discord Bot Library
  • libz
  • OpenSSL (libssl/libcrypto)
• MariaDB Connector/C (libmariadb)

Building

Build Environment

• CMake 3.16+
• GCC/clang/MSVC supporting C++17

Build Steps

• Configure with CMake (e.g. cmake -S ./ -B build/).
• run make or ninja as appropriate in build directory.

Running

Gearbot requires that a config file called "config.txt" be placed in the same directory as the executable. The file works as a series of key = value pairs with '#' denoting the line is a comment. At a minimum your config should have the following:

AUTH_TOKEN = 0Dg.....
MARIADB_HOSTNAME = 127.0.0.1
MARIADB_USERNAME = dbuser
MARIADB_PASSWORD = dbpassword
RESYNC_COMMANDS = false

After that, gearbot can be launched with ./gearbot or you can install it anywhere you'd like.
