tagDiscordBot

A discord.py bot used to store and recall tags. It has full multi-guild support with the ability add admins (the first has to be added to the guild directly to the database at the moment).

Setup guide

Token

The token is stored in a file called constants.py in the root. You must create this with the following variable(s):

• BOT_TOKEN and set this to your token as a string, i.e. BOT_TOKEN = "<paste your token here>"

The database

The bot uses a SQLite database. To start with, you can use this database as it has the correct structure, but it is recommended that you install the SQLite DB Browser application to easily edit the database, as you need to add the initial admin.

Adding the first admin

• Open SQLite DB Browser and open the tags.db database.
• Go to Browse Data and select the admins table. Clear out the current entries and add a new one. AdminID should be the ID of the user you want to be an admin, and the GuildID should be the ID of the server you want them to be an admin in.
• Click Write Changes, then Close Database.

If you wish, you can clear out the entries in the tags table as these exist for my testing guild, and so take up some space. These will not show up in your server(s).

Running the bot

Make sure you fulfil the prerequisite constants file.

The bot is supplied in a venv, so you should use that as it already contains discord.py. The entrypoint is main.py - run this with Python 3.8 to start the bot.
