VoxelBotUtils

VoxelBotUtils (VBU) is an extension for Novus to speed up Discord bot development. It includes a whole slew of features that are commonly used in a lot of bots so you don't need to keep writing them every time. Many features are available to you by default:

• Built-in error handling for all of Novus's errors.
• Built-in database connector.
• Logging using Python's logging.Logger classes.
• Webhook sends on different events.
• Bot stats posting via StatsD and DataDog.
• A help command that doesn't look like trash.
• Owner-only commands.
• Presence auto-updating based on Twitch streamers.
• Website utilities.
• And more...

Basic Usage

• Install VBU via pip - pip install voxelbotutils.
• Create your config file via CMD - vbu create-config bot.
• Update your auto-generated config file in config/config.toml.
• (Optional) Add/change any cogs you wish inside of the cogs/ folder.
• Run your bot - vbu run-bot.
