Reg Bot—Bespoke Discord-management bot for a Made in Abyss roleplay server

Reg Bot was made to automate certain administratory task on the Made In Abyss RP roleplay Discord server. The tasks being:

  • Displaying an activity report of players with active characters to see which players are inactive. (It displays the last time a player has posted.)
  • Archiving player characters on demand.
  • Splitting a piece of text from Pastebin into chunks of less or equal to 2,000 characters. (For those really long RP posts.)
  • A stupid function which makes Reg say "irredeemable".

The bot is fully configurable as all configurations are stored in an external database.

If you are a member of our server, don't hesitate to try to improve Reg Bot. If you aren't, well, I don't think this bot would be of much use to you, but I dunno, it might.

Rad info

Reg Bot is coded in Python using the discord.py library, it uses a Postgres database to store its configuration, to which it connects using the asyncpg library, and it is deployed—to the dismay of many discord.py developers—on Heroku (hey, it works; don't judge).

Environment variables

To run RegBot, you need to have these environment variables set:

  • DATABASE_URL — The URL pointing to the database where the bot configuration is stored. It should be a Postgres database and the string should conform to the dsn specification in the asyncpg library.
  • REG_BOT_KEY — Your Discord bot key

Database

I was too lazy to a create a database-initialisation function or to create a database dump, so here's at least the schema of the database tables:

configuaration
column name column info
id integer(auto-increment;primary key)
name character varying[64]
value character varying[64]
roleplay_channels
column name column info
id integer(auto-increment;primary key)
channel_id character varying[64]
roleplay_roles
column name column info
id integer(auto-increment;primary key)
role_id character varying[64]
privileged_roles
column name column info
