uwbot

A bot for the UW discord

Running with docker

The repository is automatically synced with a public docker repository. To use with docker, first pull the repository:

docker pull froast/uwbot

We need to have a location where the bot can store database files and read config files:

mkdir uwbot
cd uwbot

Create a config.json file in this folder using the editor of your choice. Refer to config.example.json for the format and configuration variables.

Also create an env.list file that will contain environment variables passed to the bot. Refer to env.example.list for the format and required variables. Copy and paste your discord token to the file in the specified location. For running with docker, the configuration path and database path will be the same as in the example file. That is: CONFIG_PATH=/external/config.json and DATABASE_PATH=/external/store.sqlite

To finally run the bot, run the following command (while still in the uwbot folder):

docker run -d \
--name uwbot \
--env-file env.list \
--mount type=bind,source=$(pwd),target=/external \
froast/uwbot
