ebeningbot

A Discord bot for playing preinstalled sounds in a voice channel.

Ruby version

3.0.0

Create and build the development database

rails db:create
rails db:migrate

Seed some sounds in your development database

Run the rake task bundle exec rake copy_sounds:run

This will convert the .mp3 sounds in the lib/assets/sounds directory and add them into your database.

Install discordrb voice dependencies

• libsodium
• A compiled libopus distribution for your system, anywhere the script can find it. See here for installation instructions.
• FFmpeg installed and in your PATH

Starting the bot

To start the bot, run the rake task bundle exec rake bot:run

Uploading sounds via the Discord interface

The sounds should be in the .mp3 format.

The sound name will be the same that you use to play them in Discord, so make sure that they are:

• unique,
• short,
• lowercase and
• without any spaces or special characters.

BAD: Ronaldo saying SIUUUUU!!!!!!.MP3

GOOD: siuu.mp3

To upload, you can use the bot command in Discord .uploadsounds [LINK TO A DIRECT .ZIP FILE CONTAINING .MP3 FILES]
