How do I get set up?

To run this bot you will need a ES6 node environment. The bot currently does not have database functions.

1. Create a role called mod and give it the following privileges:

• Display role members separately from online members
• Manage Roles
• Check all boxes under Text Permissions

2. Create roles (this will take a while):

• currently roles must be completely lowercase or youre going to have a bad time see Professor-Redwood-Team/Professor-Redwood#22
• valor, instinct, and mystic: all with at least: Display role members seperately, Read & Send Messages (recommend unchecking Mention Everyone), and color each team appropriately
• create one role for each region that you plan to use. Regions consist of multiple channels. Channels consist of multiple neighborhoods. Examples in SF are: sf, peninsula, sanjose, eastbay
• create a role named 'allregions'
• create a role for each rare pokemon, Tier 3-5 raid boss, and 'highiv', 'legendary', 'finalevo', 'exgym'. All of these roles must have the 'allow anyone to @mention this role' permission set!

3. Create Channels:

• professor_redwood (a channel specifically for bot commands) - @everyone may Read & Send messages
• gymraids_alerts (required for alert forwarding) - only admin/mod/3 teams should have Send Message privilege, @everyone should have no privilege
• start_here (required for instructing users on bot usage) - only admin/mod roles should have Send Message privilege, @everyone should have Read only
• neighborhood channels! When creating these, make sure to use '-' in each name, even if it's at the beginning or end. Proper examples are pier39-marina and sanjose- -- make sure to only allow allregions and the appropriate region role to access each channel
• regional gym channels, each region role you created should have a corresponding gym channel, called gymraids_ + the name of your region role

5. Go to the config folder and create a secrets.json. Follow instructions in the config/readme.txt.
6. Change relevant config settings in the config folder.
7. Install node packages with npm install
8. Run your bot: npm start

professor-callery's Issues

Direct messaging bugs

When a user dm's the prof, they get this message, which keeps going on until the bot is shut down.

I currently have no direct message functions. Please go to channel #start_here

The prof seems confused, maybe interpreting its own messages as the user's dm?
