A discord.py bot to schedule events

This repository is no longer maintained

Schedulebot was written before Discord announced their Events feature and it has not been updated since. No support will be provided.

Schedulebot

Schedulebot is a simple Discord bot using discord.py created to help manage scheduled events in your Discord server. It makes it easy to schedule an event and confirm your attendance or absence.

Running

You should just be able to clone the repository and run the bot.py file directly or using poetry. The bot will generate a config.ini file after the first run, populate it with your bot's secret token and your desired command prefix and run the bot again to get started!

Heroku

A sample Procfile and requirements.txt are provided for hosting this bot on Heroku. To deploy to Heroku, fork this repository and deploy it to a new Dyno. Instead of using a config.ini file like you would if you were running the bot locally, create token and prefix environment variables and populate them with their respective values.
