Skyline Bot

We needed a bot for managing our Discord server with specific features. Skyline Bot was created so that we could effectively moderate and help people in an efficient manner and meet the special needs of managing an emulation server with potential for integration with the application in the future.

Outline

Events

These are any events emitted by the Discord API that are visible to the bot, such as:

  • Triggering an interaction (interactionCreate)
  • Successful connection with the Discord API (ready)
  • Sending a message (messageCreate)
  • Modification of a guild member (guildMemberUpdate)

Filters

These are implemented in the messageCreate event file. The functions added are run for every message that the bot recieves.

Commands

Skyline Bot uses Discord interactions (slash commands, modals, etc.) to provide users with a simple way of communicating with the bot.

Setup and usage

Step 1: Install Node.js

We use Discord.js for writing the bot, a module that allows the bot to connect with the Discord API through Node.js. Install Node.js to develop or host an instance of Skyline Bot.

Step 2: Installing modules and dependencies

Download the code and extract it to a folder. Run npm i from inside the project folder to install the necessary modules and dependencies that allow Skyline Bot to run.

Step 3: Starting the bot

To start the bot, run npm run tscw. This is a script that will allow users to make changes to the code that will be detected and recompiled as they are made.

Step 4: Deploy commands

Anytime a command's data property is modified or a new command is created, use npm run update to update the command list.

Notes

  • Skyline Bot is written in TypeScript to allow for compile-time error checking. Skyline Bot is also written completely using the ECMAScript standard for added concision and convenience.
  • To set command permissions beyond the defaults, you'll need to edit them in server settings.
