NitroxDiscordBot

Discord bot used by Nitrox team.

Setup

1. Ask for the Discord bot token (as opposed to reset)
2. Create "appsettings.Development.json" file and set the Token + GuildId. See below for appsettings.json template.
3. Add the bot to your private server by following the steps (bot invite URL is generated here): https://discord.com/api/oauth2/authorize?client_id=405122994348752896&permissions=17179943952&scope=bot
4. Deploy the bot or run it locally in development mode for testing.

Deploy (docker)

• With the Rider IDE you can connect to a docker host via SSH to push & build the container remotely.
• To build it from CLI, see below.

1. Build the docker container:

   docker build --tag nitroxdiscordbot:latest -f ./NitroxDiscordBot/Dockerfile .

2. Run the docker container:

   docker run --name nitroxdiscordbot nitroxdiscordbot:latest

Features

• Purging channels of "old" messages (configure with /cleanup)
• Auto respond to user messages (configure with /autoresponse)
• Submits to a Ntfy server on a topic with same name as the Auto Response

Backend features

• Sqlite database - which is stored in /app/data/nitroxbot.db. Docker mount the /app/data directory somewhere on your host to reuse the database. Otherwise, the database is gone when the docker container is deleted and you need to reconfigure the bot again.

Example appsettings.json file

{
    "Token": "DISCORD_TOKEN_HERE",
    "GuildId": MY_SERVER_ID_HERE,
    "Developers": [MY_DISCORD_USER_ID],
    "Ntfy": {
        "Url": "URL TO NTFY HERE"
    }
}

• GuildId is needed as this bot is meant to manage only 1 server at a time.
• Developers field is optional but gives you super admin access to the commands of the bot, no matter the Discord server.
• Ntfy configuration is optional. If invalid, Ntfy submits will be skipped.
