Nova Bot

Nova Bot is a Discord Bot framework built mainly to make it easier for me to maintain all my discord bots. It provides very limited flexibility but allows building powerful and bug-free Discord bots very quickly.

Motivation

I built this Discord Framework because when I built many different Discord bots, I used the same template code across all the frameworks, and it became difficult tracking which bots have the latest changes to the template. So I decided to make this a framework so that I could maintain all my bots with much more ease.

Features

Cache guild information in PostGres so that guild data doesn't reset everytime the bot is redeployed
Nova will read each command dynamically according to the filenames for each command.
- If you have a file /slashs/play, Nova will register a /play slash command and use the data in the file as the metadata and callback of the slash command
- Same works with
  - /buttons for button interactions
  - /selectmenus for select menu interactions
  - /messages for message commands
  - /events for discord events
A Bot-wide and Guild-wide caching system to store information about the Bot and individual Guilds.
Dynamic help command builder which reads from the /slashs and /messages folders to find out all the available commands to interact with the bot
Allow bot to constantly clean messages in one channel to make sure it is the only one with messages in the channel. This is useful for
- Music Queues as the only message in the channel
- Calendar bots to only show calendar related messages sent by the bot in the channel
Allows custom logging of events happening like
- Initialization of the bot
- Alerts, Warnings and Errors in the code
- A slash command being used
- A button interaction being used
- A select menu interaction being used
- A message command being used
