Release Candidate 4.0.0-RC1

Changelog 4.0.0-RC1

Major features

• Added interview system to automatically interview the ticket creator when their ticket is created.

  • Added functionality to set different interview templates for different ticket categories. These decide which questions the bot will ask and how it will react to responses. Read more here.
  • Added an interview template JSON schema for autocomplete and error checking features in your text editor. Guides available for VS Code and Jetbrains editors in the interview templates documentation.
  • Added admin and moderation commands for the new interview system:
    • /interview restart: Restarts an ongoing interview or starts up a new one in the current ticket. Uses an updated template if available.
    • /interview stop: Stops an ongoing interview.
    • /interviewtemplate get <category>: Gets the interview template for a specific category. If one doesn't exist it gets a basic one to start out from.
    • /interviewtemplate set <template>: Sets the interview template for a specific category. The category is decided by the category id inside of the template file.
    • /interviewtemplate delete <category>: Deletes the interview template for a specific category.
  • Added config options for deleting interview messages after an interview is completed, and turning the interview system on and off.

• Added zip transcripts. Transcripts now include all assets needed to render them as long as they can be compressed to 25MiB.

  • If a transcript zip is too large to upload the html will be sent on its own instead. An administrator can still grab the zip from the transcripts directory in order to view the proper transcript.

Minor features

• Added reason message to /close
• Added option to pin the first message in a ticket to make it easy to quickly scroll to the top.
• Added command line arguments: --config, --transcripts, --leave, --help, --version
• Added much more logging. Any commands that make any changes should now log to the log channel.

Changes

• Renamed /admin listinvalid to /listinvalid to enable setting separate permissions for it.
• Made /say command paginated to fit large numbers of messages.
• Switched from using a category mention to using the text name to make it more clear to those who cannot see the category.
• Made /listinvalid show tickets where the creator has left the server as well.
• Updated from .NET 6.0 to .NET 8.0.
• Updated all libraries, like the Discord API and transcriber.
• Updated documentation with new features.
• Switched MySQL library to a slightly more efficient one.
• Added more information to status command.

Release 2.5.0

Changelog:

• Updated Discord API version.

• Removed Google API integration. (None of the users who answered my polls in Discord and Github used it at all, including me)

• Replaced presence-game config with presence-type and presence-text.

• Added a role parameter to the rassign command, use this to randomly assign a ticket to staff members with a specific role only.

• Added config random-assign-role-override. If true the rassign command will give out tickets to anyone with the specified role regardless of if they are set as inactive or not. This only affects the command when a role is specified.

• Set bot intents so the Discord API is happier, you should not have to set either of the intents on your bot settings page unless they change it in the future.

• Fixed bug where tickets would sometimes refuse to close if either the bot crashed or lost connection to Discord when attempting to close it previously.

Remember to check the readme for the updated config.
