This bot is made for self employed people who provide their service in person. It uses simple contractor-client role model. At first, a contractor creates a list of appointments (date and time records) that are suitable for him/her (fit in his/her schedule). Then, a client can make an appointment with the contractor choosing the date-time record out of a list made by the contractor. The only thing here that needed to be made by contractor is to create these records.
For example, the contractor can be a manicurist, beauty master, tutor or any other person who provides their service in person and needs automatic appointment management.
There are 2 important files that are used to configure the bot.
config.json- main config file, where you can set your bot token, developer and contractor ids, path to locale etc.locale.json- all interface mappings that are used during communication with bot users, including date format, commands, prompts and messages.
The default location for config files is src/main/kotlin/dev/scroogemcfawk/manicurebot/config,
where you can also find example_config.json and example_locale.json - these
files show the basic structure, but are not complete.
In order to see full list of options, see Config.kt and Locale.kt.
The minimum required fields are config.token and config.locale, locale file must exist, but can be empty,
in that case default values will be used.
Put config.json and locale.json into src/main/kotlin/dev/scroogemcfawk/manicurebot/config folder.
Both files have to have Config.kt and Locale.kt constructor parameter
names accordingly. If you don't know your dev and contractor chat id,
start the bot and use /_id command, id of your chat will be logged at
INFO level. If you leave locale.json empty, default english locale will
be used. Still, you have to specify config.json path as program argument.
When everything is ready, run main function with single argument
(absolute path to config.json) in src/main/kotlin/dev/scroogemcfawk/manicurebot/App.kt
When you got your ids, set them in config.json and restart the bot.
The code might have a lot of bugs and is structured as is, because the person who wrote it is a fucking brain-damaged retard (me), so, please, keep it in mind when you use it.
You can basically do whatever you want with
this code, but keep sources open.
