Scheduler

A Discord bot that allows you to create reminders and alarms inside your own server.

Features • Help • Commands

Add to server

⚠️ The bot is currently WIP. This means that the database is subject to change at any moment, so any stored reminder, alarm or server configuration has a high probability of being erased. The link won't be available in this stage of the development.

Features

You and your friends will be able to set useful reminders and alarms inside your Discord server for everyone to see.

The current version offers:

1. Creating a reminder on the specified date and time with a title (and a description).
2. Setting up a broadcast channel
3. Specify the output channel for a specific reminder
4. Modify the default prefix so it doesn't get in conflict with your other bots
5. See a list of the current reminders

Future features:

1. Alarms (recurrent reminders)
2. Delete reminders and alarms
3. More settings for reminders (e.g. to specify the amount of time left rather than the date and time, to allow more date formats like YYYY-MM-DD)
4. Server configuration for server roles with permissions (now available for server creator only)
5. Multiple broadcast channels
6. Command for setting own timezone (for users with a different timezone from the server)

Help

🛠️ Set up

To set up Scheduler, first you need to set a time zone for the server using >>chtimezone YourTimeZone. It is set to UTC+0 by default. For the moment, you only can set a time zone by using its full name (e.g. Atlantic/Canary, Europe/Madrid, etc...).

Check out this list of time zones if you don't know yours. You can always see the current time zone of the server using >>timezone and the time using >>time.

⚠️ Be careful, as having the expected time on your server does not mean that you got the correct time zone. Not all time zones accomplish DST, so having an incorrect time zone might cause an unexpected time offset on winter and summer.

❕ Command prefix

The default command prefix is >>.

You can change it by using >>chprefix

📢 Broadcast channel

Every time a reminder is sent, it'll be through the broadcast channel. By default, the broadcast channel is set to 'general'. This can be modified using

>>chchannel newchannel

📆 Reminders

A reminder is used when you need to remember something once on a concrete date and time. In the current version, you can create a reminder by specifying time, date, and a title.

>>reminder dd-mm-yyyy hh-mm "title"

Also, you can add a description, so you or your friends have some context on what you wanted to remind.

>>reminder dd-mm-yyyy hh-mm "title" "description"

These reminders will be sent by default through general. You can change it to whichever you want. If you want to send a reminder through a different channel from the default you can specify it too. Just like this:

>>reminder dd-mm-yyyy hh-mm "title" "description" channel

⚠️ Time must be specified using ISO 8601 format (24h).

⚠️ The title and description of a reminder have to be enclosed in double quotes.

Commands

Commands are used by typing the bot prefix (>> by default).

• Parameters must be separated by a space.
• Parameters that need to be surrounded by double quotes are indicated in the table.
• Parameters surrounded by square brackets are optional.
• Commands with a ⚠️ sign will be changed in the near future.
