Gophelper

Simple bot written in Golang using DiscordGo.

Introduction

This is my first project using Golang, originally written just for fun in midnight, rewritten to be flexible and easily scalable next 2 days

Features

• Gophelper has simple rate limiter that can has different config per command
• Gophelper provides easy way to add commands with ability to use arguments
• Commands can contain spaces e.g. play pingpong may be just one command
• Nothing stops you also from creating multiple routers which may be used for a different purpose e.g. providing different language based on router's prefix
• Routers support middleware to control what passes through

How do I install this

1. Clone repo
2. Edit config files to your preferences and add BOT_TOKEN env variable which will store your bot token
3. cd to cloned repo to directory src/Main
4. Run go build . command
5. Launch built executable

Config files

Gophelper provides easy to edit JSON config files.
It also provides way to translate bot into multiple languages without much effort, in this repo you can see two languages: polish and english, nothing stops you by expanding it by more languages

Pulls, forks and issues

Be free to fork this repo, if you have any comment regarding to quality of my Golang code - go ahead and open issue/add pull request. My first meet with go was 3 days ago, so I know many things can be done better.

Commands

Gopher comes with some commands out of a box, all of them are pretty simple
Here's the list of some of them:

Alias	Description
help	Provides either list of categories, commands or information about them. You may spot characters like _ in Usage, there's how to interpret them: * [] simply means attribute * _ before argument means it's non obligatory, you may skip it or set some random things in its place * {} e.g. [_user{mention/id}] means you can put either user id or user mention in this place
game pingpong	Play ping pong match versus bot
8ball	Magically answers your questions
stats	Shows information about you or given user
hug/kitty/doggie/waifu etc.	Gives you specified thing
lang	Sets language config of router to given file located in "Languages/" e.g. go lang english.json
