Configuration

git clone https://github.com/Reecepbcups/cosmos-governance-bot.git
cd cosmos-governance-bot

cp secrets.example.json secrets.json

# 1) Update secrets.json to your own values. 
# *If you do not plan on using one of the bots, you do not need to fill out the values.*

#2) If you want to allow all tickers to be announced, leave TICKERS_TO_ANNOUNCE as `[]`
# *To specify tickers, add them in a list as `["dig","osmo","huahua"]` matching tickers in the cosmpy_chain CHAIN_APIs*


#3) python3 -m pip install -r requirements/requirements.txt

#4) run 'python src/gov-bot.py'

# if you want to run every 30 minutes, here is that crontab example:
# */30 * * * * cd /root/cosmos-governance-bot && python src/gov-bot.py

USE_PYTHON_RUNNABLE a

if true, run the script in a screen such as screen -S bot python3 GovBot.py
if false, use a cronjob to auto run it when you want, use https://crontab.guru/examples.html for help, must cd to directory first

such as: */30 * * * * cd /root/cosmos-governance-bot && python3 src/gov-bot.py

LOG_RUNS Just adds logs.txt for when the script is run to ensure success

Discord Threads

For threads, you must set DISCORD = True in GovBot.py. Within your discord client you will need 2 things:

• The Channel_ID (right click the channel and it should be at the very bottom. If not, settings > Advanced > Developer Mode)
  

• Guild ID (right click the server icon, and copy ID)
  NOTE: You must use the same channel_id as the webhook is generated on
  
  Next you need to set your THREAD_ARCHIVE_MINUTES. There are 4 values you can do: 60, 1440, 4320, 10080
  

• By default level 0 servers only have 60 and 1440 (24hours). To get access to other values, you have to increase your server boost.
  
  Finally you must setup a bot application, HOWEVER it is not actually run like a normal bot. We just pass it through discords endpoints & simulate it being on. So no hassle :)

• https://discord.com/developers/applications

• New Application in the top (Then name it, create)

• On the left, click "Bot"

• On the right, "Add Bot", then "Yes Do It"
  
  

• Click on "Reset Token' to get the Bots Token, then "Yes Do It" (You may be required to enter a 2fa code here)

• Example Token: OTUyMDgwOTQ5NzcwODUwMzY1.Yiw0ew.8Fsxi4I4IMgmAICyh_HdsIXL_jo

• Paste this token into the secret.json file under "DISCORD_THREADS" -> "BOT_TOKEN"
  
  

• Now back on the browser, click on "OAuth2" on the left

• Under the "URL Generator" tab, in scopes select "bot" (center, middle)

• In Bot Permissions, select the following:

• Then at the bottom you should have a generated URL, copy this into your browser & invite it to the server
