Justine Core BOT

This is Justine BOT.

A personal (and Open Source) bot for Discord written in C# using the Discord .NET library. ✌️

This project is my personal bot self-hosted on a Raspberry Pi 3B running Windows 10 IoT.

Getting Started

The following instructions describe a step by step process of getting Justine on your local machine and ready for development.

If you're interested in hosting your own instance of Justine, check the notes in deployment.

Prerequisites

• The recommended IDE is Visual Studio 2017 Community.
• Using Visual Studio Installer make sure you installed .NET Core cross-platform development.
  • Visual Studio Installer should be automatically installed with VS 2017 Community.

Installing

This is a step by step guide to get Miunie ready on your machine and ready for development.

Getting the source

If you would like to contribute:

1. Fork the repository.
2. Navigate to your fork.
3. Clone your fork to your local machine.

If you just want a copy of the code:

1. Just directly Clone or download as a ZIP this repository. raised_hands:

Setting up the development environment

• The root directory of the project contains JustineCore.sln, this is a Visual Studio solution file and you can open it with Visual Studio (see prerequisites).

• After the solution is loaded, right-click the JustineCore project through the Solution Explorer in Visual Studio (It has a little C# in a green box icon by default) and go to Properties. Under Debug, you will see an Application arguments: field. You can paste your bot token there. Application arguments are already added to .gitignore so you don't have to worry about accidentally making it public.

• Once you save your changes from the previous step, you can compile and run the application.

  • In Visual Studio, a common way of doing this is with the F5 or Ctrl + F5 shortcut.

• Try it out

  • The bot you have assigned with your token should now be online. Try to mention him and say hello!

@MyBot Hello

If you get a response back, everything is ready for development.

If you would like to run the bot without Visual Studio, follow the notes in Deployment.

Running the tests

To run Unit Tests in Visual Studio, you use the Ctrl + R, A shortcut or go to Test > Run > All Tests.

Deployment

To publish a version of Justine and run it on a machine, you can use this tutorial that walks you through the process.

• When running the application for the first time, a notice about an invalid token might appear. If this happens, close the application, check its directory and search for config.json. Edit this file and make sure to put your token in the right place. The next launch of the application should properly connect.
