Robo Arc

Learning Rust project. Yes, I'm very original and full of ideas, so I'm remaking what I already did with python, but hopefully better this time. (I did actually make it better!)

Bot invite link!

This bot is made using serenity.rs, an asynchronous discord API wrapper for Rust.

Running the bot for yourself

Get the source and prepare it

git clone git@gitlab.com:vicky5124/robo-arc.git # Over SSH
git clone https://gitlab.com/vicky5124/robo-arc.git # Over HTTPS

cd robo-arc
mv config.toml.example config.toml

Discord token

First, create an application Here.
Go to the newly created application and head over the Bot tab.
In here you create a bot, enable the Server Member Intent, and copy the token. The token is what will be put on the discord variable inside config.toml. \

You can also create the invite link for the bot on the OAuth2 tab; Just select bot, the permissions you want the bot to have and copy the invite link.

Other tokens

• osu!
  Obtain the token HERE
  NOTE: You will need to create an account if you do not already have one.
  NOTE: Do not create more than 1 account in the case of already having one, it's a bannable offence.

• Sankaku
  Create an account HERE.
  Obtain the "passhash" from the location THIS image shows.
  NOTE: The image shows the Chrome Dev Tools (f12), On firefox the tab is called "Storage", same key.

PostgreSQL Database

You'll need to have a psql server running. If you don't know how, I recommend using docker. Here's a video that will help you with that.

With a created database and you connected with a user, you'll need to create different tables, required by the bot.
You can do this by using sqlx migrations. To install it, run this command:
cargo install sqlx-cli
Then you will need to set a database url to your env_vars. In linux you can run this:

export DATABASE_URL="postgres://`postgres_username`:`postgres_user_password`@`postgres_host`:`postgres_port`/`postgres_database`"
export DATABASE_URL2=$DATABASE_URL

Followed with the creation of the database:

# Only run this the first time.
sqlx database create

# Apply the migrations
# Run this every time you update the bot.
cargo sqlx migrate run

Redis Database

So logging works, redis is also necessary. It is also recommended that you use docker for this. Here's the docker hub link. The readme has the commands you need to run the container.

NOTE: This is currently only being used without a configuration, if any configuration options that you feel like you may need makes stuff not work, feel free to open an issue about it.

Then you will need to set a database url to your env_vars. In linux you can run this:

export REDIS_URL="`redis_host`:`redis_port`"

Python Hikari eval command

If you'd like to have an eval command that's quick, to evaluate critical python code within discord, you will need to use the basic_python_bot_for_eval.py file.

To run it, run the following commands:

# Only once:
# Install python 3.8 or newer with pip.
# Install pipenv with `python3 -m pip install pipenv -U --user`

# Run every update:
python3 -m pipenv sync

# Run to run the eval bot:
python3 -m pipenv run python basic_python_bot_for_eval.py

Running the bot

It's as simple as just running:

export DATABASE_URL="postgres://`postgres_username`:`postgres_user_password`@`postgres_ip`:`postgres_port`/`postgres_database`"
# example: postgres://postgres:123456@localhost:5432/arcbot
# these values are the same as the ones you put on config.toml
cargo run --release

Notes

• To get the idol command working, you may need to run this command first:

curl -H "\x00\x00\x00\x08\x00\x00\x00\x01\x00\x00\x00\x14\x00U\x00s\x00e\x00r\x00-\x00A\x00g\x00e\x00n\x00t\x00\x00\x00\n\x00\x00\x00ä\x00M\x00o\x00z\x00i\x00l\x00l\x00a\x00/\x005\x00.\x000\x00 \x00(\x00W\x00i\x00n\x00d\x00o\x00w\x00s\x00 \x00N\x00T\x00 \x001\x000\x00.\x000\x00;\x00 \x00W\x00i\x00n\x006\x004\x00;\x00 \x00x\x006\x004\x00)\x00 \x00A\x00p\x00p\x00l\x00e\x00W\x00e\x00b\x00K\x00i\x00t\x00/\x005\x003\x007\x00.\x003\x006\x00 \x00(\x00K\x00H\x00T\x00M\x00L\x00,\x00 \x00l\x00i\x00k\x00e\x00 \x00G\x00e\x00c\x00k\x00o\x00)\x00 \x00C\x00h\x00r\x00o\x00m\x00e\x00/\x006\x007\x00.\x000\x00.\x003\x003\x009\x006\x00.\x008\x007\x00 \x00S\x00a\x00f\x00a\x00r\x00i\x00/\x005\x003\x007\x00.\x003\x006" https://iapi.sankakucomplex.com/post/index.json\?page=1\&limit=1\&tags=rating:safe
