Reg Bot was made to automate certain administratory task on the Made In Abyss RP roleplay Discord server. The tasks being:
- Displaying an activity report of players with active characters to see which players are inactive. (It displays the last time a player has posted.)
- Archiving player characters on demand.
- Splitting a piece of text from Pastebin into chunks of less or equal to 2,000 characters. (For those really long RP posts.)
- A stupid function which makes Reg say "irredeemable".
The bot is fully configurable as all configurations are stored in an external database.
If you are a member of our server, don't hesitate to try to improve Reg Bot. If you aren't, well, I don't think this bot would be of much use to you, but I dunno, it might.
Reg Bot is coded in Python using the discord.py library, it uses a Postgres database to store its configuration, to which it connects using the asyncpg library, and it is deployed—to the dismay of many discord.py developers—on Heroku (hey, it works; don't judge).
To run RegBot, you need to have these environment variables set:
DATABASE_URL— The URL pointing to the database where the bot configuration is stored. It should be a Postgres database and the string should conform to thedsnspecification in theasyncpglibrary.REG_BOT_KEY— Your Discord bot key
I was too lazy to a create a database-initialisation function or to create a database dump, so here's at least the schema of the database tables:
| column name | column info |
|---|---|
| id | integer(auto-increment;primary key) |
| name | character varying[64] |
| value | character varying[64] |
| column name | column info |
|---|---|
| id | integer(auto-increment;primary key) |
| channel_id | character varying[64] |
| column name | column info |
