go-r-obot

Discord Bot that tracks how many Subreddits mentioned, rewritten in go

r-obot tracks how many times r/<insert text here> is mentioned in one of the messages on your server. It responds with various jokes related to the total message count.

Newly added in this go rewrite are unit tests in main_test.go as well as better joke generation.

Running

First create a .secret text file beside the main.go and place your Discord API secret key in it.

Then make sure go is installed and on your path then run

go run main.go

To test run

go test main.go main_test.go

The file.go file is used to create a data file with a certain count. To use it replace 336 in the fmt.Sprint() statement in file.go with the initial count you want and then run

go run file.go

You should then see the data.txt file

Developing

Make sure go and git are installed and on your path then run

git clone https://github.com/sirfredrick/go-r-obot.git

then follow the above steps for running it.
