dkim19375JDAUtils

A kotlin library for JDA to help to make discord bots easier!

WARNING! UPDATES MAY INCLUDE API BREAKING CHANGES! THE API IS STILL VERY NEW, RESULTING IN FREQUENT CHANGES

An example of using this library is with my bot UniG0 - https://github.com/dkim19375/UniG0

NOTE: This might not be up-to-date, if these code snippets don't work, please notify me!

Adding the dependency

Note: Before version 2.5.1, https://jitpack.io was used instead of MavenCentral!

Gradle:

repositories {
    mavenCentral() // releases
    maven { url = 'https://s01.oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots/' } // snapshots
}
dependencies {
    implementation 'io.github.dkim19375:dkim19375jdautils:VERSION'
}

Maven:

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.github.dkim19375</groupId>
    <artifactId>dkim19375jdautils</artifactId>
    <version>VERSION</version>
</dependency>

Setting up the bot

A class, that holds information such as the commands, needs to be created. It extends me.dkim19375.dkim19375JDAUtils.BotBase. To start the bot, you call BotBase#onStart. It is recommended to make this your main class.

import me.dkim19375.dkim19375jdautils.BotBase

class Bot : BotBase() {
    override val name = "Bot-Name" 
    override val token = "token-here"
    
    init {
        onStart()
    }
    
    override fun getPrefix(guild: String?): String {
        return "!"
    }
}

Now, you can simply run the bot, invite the bot to a server, then run !help!
