LaunchBot

A bot for LaunchPoint, a pickup server for those who are just starting competitive Splatoon. Could also be a good general purpose draft bot.

Features

• Pull current and next Ranked/League/Regular/Salmon Run rotations.
• Logs when a member joins or leaves the server.
• Ability to host a draft with a player skill system.
• Private staff commands to start/end a season and to set a draft maplist via a nkitten code.
• Hosts a global leaderboard and an on-demand leaderboard with pagination.

How to Run

First, you'll need to clone the repo:

git clone https://github.com/AdamW19/LaunchBot.git

Then you'll need to make your own config.py file. You are free to use config_public.py as the base. You'll need to get your own bot token, and edit the various logging channels and such. Then rename it to config.py:

cp config_public.py config.py

If you forget to rename it, the bot will rename it for you, but will remind you to make sure config.py was properly setup.

You'll also need to install any dependencies. Use pip and the provided requirements.txt:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Then just run the bot with python3:

python3 LPBot.py

You should be good to go! For your information, all files used to generate gifs are in / and all databases are stored in /db. Files used to generate gifs are auto deleted every 5 minutes as long as the bot is actively running.
