The bot is written with .NET Core 3.0, meaning you can build it via dotnet build, which will create a binary executeable called BrackeysBot.exe. If you are missing packages make sure to run dotnet restore prior to building.
When run for the first time, the bot will create a config.yaml file next to your executeable. This is where all of the bot configuration will be placed. The only fields that are essential for running the bot are token and prefix.
token: 'Get this from the developer dashboard!'
prefix: '[]'Automatic versioning is planned for the future, but at the moment the version number needs to be manually updated in the file Version.cs. The system to update the version numbers goes as follows:
| Number | Description |
|---|---|
| Major | Only updated by the repository administrators once a completely new version is deployed. |
| Minor | Updated once a batch of features (or a project) is fully implemented. |
| Patch | Updated once a new feature is added. |
| Hotfix | Updated if a feature requires a fix. |
