owl-bot

I have an inside joke on my friends' Discord server. Whenever anyone mentions the string literal "who," they are assigned a Discord role called "Owl." This is a manual process and this bot, Dockerized so I can run it on my server, automates it!

Very simple set-up (this is not a microservices application, eventually going to get this running on a K8S cluster). 0. Install Docker and docker-compose.

1. Clone this repository.
2. Rename the file .env.example to .env and add your Discord token (you can find that under the Bot subcategory in the Dev portal. When scoping your Discord bot, make sure it has the Server Members Intent and Message Content Intent. When setting up an OAuth invite. and scope the OAuth invite link to include bot and manage roles.
3. On your host machine, you can use the following docker-compose.yml to get started:

version: '3.8'
services:
  owl-bot:
    build: .
    container_name: discord_owl_bot
    restart: always
    env_file:
      - .env

That's it!
