AniSchedule

A Discord bot that uses the AniList API to retrieve the airing schedule for configured anime and sends a message when a new episode has aired.

Commands

Commands are now handled directly through Discord's slash command system. This includes permissions, as well!

When the bot is first added to a server, only /about, /upcoming, and /watching will be available to users. The server owner will need to run /permission <PERMISSION> to enable other commands for anybody else. Editing commands can be limited to either just the owner, a specific role, or the limit can be removed and anybody can use them.

In order to reduce potential spam, commands that take a channel argument will send an ephemeral reply if the channel requested is not the same as the one the command was used in.

Running Yourself

Make sure you have Node.js installed.

Run these commands to get the project locally:

git clone https://github.com/TehNut/AniSchedule.git # or clone your own fork
cd AniSchedule
npm install
npm run build

Create a new .env file in the root directory of the project (the same directory as this README) with the following properties:

Variable Name	Type	Required	Description
$TOKEN	String	Yes	The token for your bot which you can get from Discord's developer panel
$SET_ACTIVITY	boolean	No	Sets bot activity to the number of unique shows it is handling announcements for across all servers
$MODE	DEV or any	No	If set to DEV, commands will be registered to a guild instead of globally. Guild-registered commands are updated instantly, while globally registered commands take up to an hour to sync. Any other value will register commands globally as normal.
$DEV_SERVER_ID	number	No	The server ID to register commands to when MODE is set to DEV.
$STREAM_SITE_ICONS	String	No	A comma separated list of emoji IDs. See here for more.

Finally, run npm run dev to start the bot.

Docker

Create the .env file as you would above and run docker-compose up.

Stream Site Icons

This allows for icons to be displayed next to the site name in the notification embed.

An example entry in the list would be <:amazon:875166861958991912>. To get this value, send a message with the emoji you want to use, but put a \ in front of it. The sent message will display the string necessary. The order in which these should be listed is as follows:

1. Amazon
2. AnimeLab
3. Crunchyroll
4. Funimation
5. HiDive
6. Hulu
7. Netflix
8. VRV
9. YouTube
10. Bilibili TV
11. iQIYI
