dGPT

dGPT is a bot that uses Discord as a substitute interface over ChatGPT, primarily for the purposes of using API pricing over a monthly subscription. Right now this is an open-source project for self-hosting, however I may be creating an independently-hosted version of the bot compatible with multiple guilds, which would be accessible for a fee. This possible version of the bot would not be open-source.

Depends on the discord, typing, and os modules.

Commands

• /setup
  • Use only once once a "For me and my friends" server is created, without altering the server. This will restructure the server into the
• /new [prompt]
  • Starts a new public thread with specified prompt. When left empty, the bot will await a prompt. This is helpful for long or multi-line prompts
• /clear
  • Deletes all active and archived threads.
• /log
  • Saves a log of the thread as either a text file or markdown file
• /sync
  • Usable only by those in a list of usernames set in the config.json file

Should I use dGPT?

YES, if you want to:

• Keep input and output fewer than 250,000 words per month (otherwise purchase a subscription, it's more cost-effective)
• Use ChatGPT within Discord
• Host the bot for just yourself and/or friends
• Customize your experience of the bot

NO, if you want to:

• Host for multiple guilds on one bot instance
• Host on servers with people you don't trust
• Host on large servers
• Have a dedicated app or web interface for ChatGPT
• Send messages that exceed Discord's character limit without Nitro

Setup process

1. Download all files
2. Rename config_base.json to config.json and open the file
3. Set the openai_token variable to your OpenAI API key and the discord_token variable to your Discord bot's token
4. Create a new server
5. Invite the bot and use /setup

To Be Implemented

• Settings page to change custom instructions, GPT model
• Read and respond to text files

Known issues

• Messages split to meet character limit between markdown (**, ```, etc.) symbols messes up the intended markdown
