How to dev

Install Mongo DB Community edition https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/tutorial/install-mongodb-on-ubuntu/
Clone this repo somewhere
cd to the folder
python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt
Set environment variable with a Discord bot token, it is pinned in the dungarmatic-test channel, ask astat for access to this channel if you are not admin
python3 dungarmatic.py
Please keep all your testing to the 'dungarmatic-test' channel so as not to spam everyone
You can have multiple Dungarmatics on the server (ie the main one and your dev one), just note that the normal Dungar might also respond to your commands

How to make a basic non-persistent plugin

Here's how to create the most basic type of plugin that does not need to persist anything to the db and responds to !command

Create a .py file in plugins and they will automatically be loaded on startup

from lib import Plugin
import asyncio

class MyPlugin(Plugin):
    cmd = "command"       #the command to respond to
    help = "Does a thing" #help text when people say !help

    @asyncio.coroutine
    def on_command(self, message):
      print message.content                             #print the whole message, split on space or whatever to get params
      print message.author.name                         #print the author's name
      yield from message.channel.send("you triggered my command!") #send a reply to the originating channel
      yield from message.author.send("hello fren")                 #send a dm to the author

How to make a plugin that runs on every message

Here's how to create one that doesnt respond to !commands but instead can run on every single message thats sent (in any channel, for example z0r chains)

from lib import Plugin
import asyncio

class MyPlugin(Plugin):

    @asyncio.coroutine
    def on_message(self, message, history):
      print history[1]                                  #print the message that came before this one (up to 30 messages)
      print message.content                             #print the whole message, split on space or whatever to get params
      print message.author.name                         #print the author's name
      yield from message.channel.send("you said a thing!")         #send a reply to the originating channel
      yield from message.author.send("hello fren")                 #send a dm to the author

Persistent plugins

There are two types of persistent plugins; normal and timed.

Normal

from lib import PersistentPlugin
import asyncio

class MyPlugin(PersistentPlugin):
    persist = ['data']  #A list of class param names to persist
    data = {}           #your data

    @asyncio.coroutine
    def on_ready(self):
        print self.data             #print the stored data
        self.data = {"blah":"hi"}   #set the data

This plugin will then automatically persist self.data to mongo and re-populate it from the db on startup

Timed (Advanced)

from lib import TimedPersistentPlugin
import asyncio

class MyPlugin(TimedPersistentPlugin):
    persist = ['data']  #A list of class param names to persist
    data = {}           #your data

    @asyncio.coroutine
    def on_tick(self):
        #this method will be called every 30 seconds (considered a "tick")
        print self.data             #print the stored data
        self.data = {"blah":"hi"}   #set the data

This plugin will then automatically persist self.data but with a timestamp attached. You can then use map/reduce to generate sums, graphs or whatever. See the MostPlayedPlugin for an example.

Events

Override these methods in your plugin to respond to events. You must decorate these with @asyncio.coroutine because dungar is asynchronous.

on_ready

Is called when your plugin is first loaded, after persistent data is loaded, in case you need to set anything up or cache stuff

    @asyncio.coroutine
    def on_ready(self):
        #do stuff here

on_command

Is called when someone says your command (set by command = "blah" in your plugin)

    @asyncio.coroutine
    def on_command(self, message):
        print message.content

on_message

Is called when anyone says anything, including dungar himself

    @asyncio.coroutine
    def on_message(self, message, history):
        if message.author == self.client.user:
            print "this message was sent by dungar himself"
        print message.content       #the message text
        print message.author.name   #Who posted it
        print history               #A list of the last 30 messages in that channel

on_tick

Is called every 30 seconds (a 'tick')

    @asyncio.coroutine
    def on_tick(self):
        #do stuff

on_member_update

Is called every time a member changes (ie what they are playing, or joining a channel, etc)

    @asyncio.coroutine
    def on_member_update(self, old, member):
        #old = the member before they updated
        #member = the member after they updated

Helper functions

The following can all be accessed within a plugin using self. to automate some useful tasks

`response = self.chance({"Response 1": 0.5, "Response 2": 0.5})`

Returns a string based on a random number from 0..1. Pass an object with the keys being your options, and the values being the chance between 0.0 and 1.0. Make sure the chances add up to 1.0 or you might get None as a response (unless that is desired)

`is_admin = self.from_admin(message)`

Returns true if the provided message came from someone with admin permissions

`channel = self.get_channel(name)`

Returns a particular channel by name (you can then call channel.send to send to that specific channel)

`member = self.get_member(name)`

Returns a particular user by name (you can then call member.send to send to that specific person)

`plugin = self.get_plugin(name)`

Returns loaded reference to another plugin, in case you need your plugins to talk to each other

`tweets = yield from self.get_tweets(screen_name)`

Returns the most recent 20 tweets posted by anyone on twitter. You must yield this so it doesnt block while contacting twitter.
