discord-bot

A small Discord bot written in Haskell for a functional programming class.

Features

The bot can recognise commands and respond to them. It currently supports the following commands:

• !commands to show a list of available commands
• !flip flips a coin
• !roll rolls a 20-sided die
• !roll n rolls an n-sided die, where n is an integer from 2 to 1,000,000.

Planned Features

A command that lets users set their own role inside a channel was originally planned, but could unfortunately not be implemented because the library discord-haskell didn't provide the required functionality yet.

Dependencies

• discord-haskell

Usage

To run the bot, create a file called auth_token in the project's root directory and copy your Discord bot's authentication token into this file. You can get such a token by creating a bot on Discord's developer portal if you don't already have one. Make sure you don't accidentally share it!

Build and run the project using Stack:

$ stack run
