Introduction

This is a discord bot developed by LucienZ (LucientZ on GitHub). The main function of this bot was originally for the lead developer to learn how to use GitHub and develop software properly. Originally a moderation bot built in JavaScript, DiscordPyBot (aka ‘Dumb Stupid Idiot Bad Bot’) is used for entertainment purposes. The source code of this bot can be found here.

Commands

This bot has a variety of commands with different functions. These are invoked by prepending a / at the beginning of a message and picking a command from the list given by discord itself.

Fun Commands

Fun Commands are commands that don’t serve a specific purpose to the bot’s functionality. These are provide

copypasta

Returns a copypasta from a list of copypastas added by the bot host.

Ex:

Input: 
    /copypasta
Output: 
    My name is Yoshikage Kira. I’m 33 years old. 
    My house is in the northeast section of Morioh, where all the villas are, and I am not married. 
    I work as an employee for the Kame Yu department stores, and I get home every day by 8 PM at the latest. 
    I don’t smoke, but I occasionally drink. I’m in bed by 11 PM, and make sure I get eight hours of sleep, no matter what. 
    After having a glass of warm milk and doing about twenty minutes of stretches before going to bed, I usually have no problems sleeping until morning. 
    Just like a baby, I wake up without any fatigue or stress in the morning.

fumo

Returns an image of a fumo (plush dolls of characters from the series “Touhou”). The images are stored as a list of urls set by the bot host. If the bot host hasn’t set any images, there will only be one with the name “example”.

Ex:

Input: 
    /fumo name:cirno
Output:

Example Cirno Fumo Image

echo

Echos specified text from a user. This works similarly to echo in a command prompt.

Ex:

Input: 
    /echo message:Hello World
Output: 
    Echo: Hello World

Server Config

Front-End

When the bot joins a new server, by default every command will be enabled, but every auto feature will be disabled. Commands can be enabled/disabled through the bot’s server settings on discord. Features can be enabled/disabled via the use of various utility commands.

Back-End

When a message is sent in a server, the bot will attempt to create a GuildProfile object. This object will save the server config into a JSON file called {server-id}.json where server-id is the id given by discord to the guild the message was sent in. This JSON will be accessed anytime further action is taken for server config or messages are sent in the server.
