KIIT Utility Bot

As the name suggests, this bot is designed to provide some utilities and tools to make working around in our section-private server.

Well... For now it it's just a prototype of a verification bot.

It scanns through all messages (make them private/dm) for the word verify and a kiit mail id. If the data matched is valid, an OTP is geerated and sent to the mail.

Libraries Used

• JDA - Java Discord API. This is used to create a discord bot - it provides the classes and methods to register events and act on them
• Javax Mail - Java Mail API. This is used to send a mail containing an OTP.
• MyLOGGER - A logger I made to print "colourful" to console.
• MCXIVUtilities:args - A simple "args" to "HashMap" parser (I use it to evaluate some basic commands).
• TryCatchSuite - A simple library to write try {} catch {} blocks as single liners or in a streams like way.

Note, that the bot can only work on one server...

The current prototype considers the following conditions for verification.

• Accepts command from users only (a bot can't control this bot)
• Ignores users not belonging to this server.
• Acts only when the message contains the word "verify" and a kiit mail address.
• The mail provided should start from 2105
• The later part must be a valid roll number.

// Update

Now the bot can also respond to a few basic commands.

• kub help - DM a help message, some information regarding the usage of commands.
• kub reset - Reset all permissions to invisible/inaccessible except for the @Member role.
• kub allow @SomeRole - Allow the @SomeRole to also access this channel.

To test run it on your system, I recommend you to use Intellij IDEA and import this project as a gradle project.

Further, one must create a file named env.properties located at src/main/resources with the following content

bot_token=YOUR DISCORD BOT TOKEN
dev_bot_token=ALTERNATE DISCORD BOT TOKEN_FOR_TESTING_PURPOSES
invite_link=NOT REALLY USED ANYWHERE
mail_from=SENDER'S MAIL ID
app_pass=GMAIL APPLICATION PASSWORD
user_name=YOUR USER NAME
valid_roll_calls=A LIST OF COMMA SEPARATED 8 DIGIT ROLL NUMBERS

Click the following links to get the required data elements:

• bot_token
• invite_link
• mail_from
• app_pass

Extra information about other fields:

• user_name - I think can almost be anything, feel free to use your name.
• valid_roll_calls - For example 21052051,21052052,21052053
