Hello to anyone following the project!

This is the RELEASE of vEuroExpress bot!

New things in v1.0:

Downsides:

Plans:
You can see stuff in more detail in Projects tab.

• Make it sync with DB of http://veuroexpress.org
• Make automod
• Make online dashboard
• Make code usable for other servers with no editing

Hope that everyone enjoys seeing the bot once it is in the vEuroExpress server!

Snapshot 2s1a

• Responds with a funny image if gets tagged

Experimental Build (v0.1.01-Ealpha) Snapshot 1s2b

Implemented in Snaphot 1s2b:

• Reaction-roles fully functional
• As many messages as you want are available
• UTF support
• Editing any reaction-role message

Cons of Snapshot 1s2b:

• Reaction-role message editing available only in a text editor, no discord support for now
• Method for adding more reaction-role messages messes with file system
• Slight, but not noticable delay

Goals for v0.1.1-alpha:

• Valid API
• Ability to utilize website API
• Fixing the bugs that haven't yet been found
• Disabling !ping command
• Making loading times quicker

Goals for v0.2.0-alpha:

Bot stablility

vEX Bot v0.1.1

v0.1.1 includes:

• Delay issues fixed
• Bot has vEX API implemented
• !ping disabled
• Loading time is quicker by 70%
• Added capability to utilize website API
• Added capability to give out METAR and TAF

No serious bugs found.

Any suggestions about what to do between 0.1 and 0.2 will be happily accepted.

Plans for v0.2.0:

• Start hosting a bot 24/7
• Do some benchmarks
• Compile a separate branch into a .jar file
• Finally make explanations what everything does in the code

Plans that may or may not be fulfilled for v0.2.0:

• Create a dashboard
• Make it so the bot answers with something so rude that it is funny or just funny when gets tagged
• Make a DB for the bot so it is possible to be used on the test server AND on the main server at the same time

Plans that are unlikely to be fulfilled for v0.2.0 and will probably be done later or being discussed right now (not sure about doing this):

• Making of a separate SyncBot for performing actions with constant listeners
• Making the API for the website ourselves so it suits the bot first of all (because of it being the main reason to make the API)

Plans beyond v1.0:

• Adding achievement notifications (VA based)

• Adding other types of notifications (also VA based)

• SebaDavinch's suggestions that he hasn't told me but they are in mind.

If bugs found, please report them in issues.

Experimental Build (v0.1.1-Ealpha) Snapshot 1s2a

Reaction-role system is in progress of making.

• Added a command to assign reactions to a reaction role message
• Added a command to assign roles to reactions to the same message
• Added the command to display the message and add reactions to it

Noticed and in process of fixing bugs:

• Adding the roles works on some servers and on others it doesn't
• For now only custom emojis are supported (e.g. - this 🔴 won't work, due to current discord.js and UTF conflicts)
• Cache memory is not fully made, data can sometimes be lost.

Goals for Snaphot 1s2b:

• Fix emoji addition
• Expand memory for emoji's and roles (for multiple messages)
• Add UTF compatability

Goals for v0.1.1-alpha:

• Valid API
• Ability to utilize website API
• Fixing the bugs that haven't yet been found
• Disabling !ping command
• Making loading times quicker

Goals for v0.2.0-alpha:

• Bot stablility

Please don't forget that the LICENSE is still in place :)

Experimental Build (v0.1.0.1-Ealpha) Snapshot 1s1a

Includes !reaction-role-msg-create command, which is intended to make a reaction-role message.
Not fully functional, unstable, use at your own risk.

vEX Bot v0.1.0

This is the first Alpha release of vEX Bot.

Right now bot includes such features as:

• simple commands (e.g. !ping)
• commands with arguments (e.g. !faq and !faq 1)
• commands limited to certain roles
• reactions
• console log of important actions
• commands that prompt for additional user input (e.g. !announce and the following !confirm and !cancel)

For now, nothing in the code is commented out and/or described what it does.

For now, bot is hosted from a PC and its usage is not available to public due to certain instabilities as well as security and data privacy concerns.

Some goals for next updates: (L - low priority, M - medium priority, H - high priority)
H - Comment out some useless stuff and describe what it does so it is easier to work with the code
H - Create reaction-roles
L - Create offline dashboard app for making changes without touching the code
L - Create an online dashboard
M - Add ability to connect to a certain website's API and process requests and get data
L - Make/Use a MySQL or FireBase DB (not sure yet)
M - Add ability to send a request to a website's DB to verify users in the discord server.

To get more information about the development of the bot you can join my Discord server or vEuroExpress community Discord server.
