Discord bot written in PHP using laravel and the DiscordPHP package. Initially created just for our own server but is now able to run on multiple servers. This project is still a work in progress and not everything might be completely user-friendly. Check the /help command in discord for more information.

• Invite bot to your server -> https://discord.com/oauth2/authorize?client_id=651378995245613056&scope=bot
• Any questions or support -> https://discord.gg/rVxJBbVNR7
• Top gg link -> https://top.gg/bot/651378995245613056

• Justin & Stefan for ideas and mental support.
• Angel for writing most of the Skyrim lines used in the MentionResponder.
• Richard & Ricardo for bug testing and working out ideas.

Short list of what this bot can do:

• Everything is based on guild, can run on multiple servers with its own data
• Role and permissions system with complete control to assign permissions as you see fit
• Leveling by sending messages and hanging out in voice + commands to manage xp
• Role Rewards based on levels
• Custom level up messages
• Extensive bot config where almost all settings can be changed
• Enable / disable server invites through command to allow mods to use it (has separate permission)
• User config where user can set specific settings for that guild
• Extensive logging with ability to enable/disable each event individually
• Adding flags to channels to for example not gain xp there, or not allow stickers, or only allow media
• Automatic timeout detection to get a better overview of who has been timed out, why and how often
• User blacklist where users can be added and prevented from using certain functions of the bot
• Assign roles to users when they join the server
• Custom welcome messages when people join the server
• Add replies based on roles in the server when you mention the bot
• Reminders - send a reminder every xx time in a certain channel
• Add emotes as custom reactions to strings, when those strings are detected the bot will react with set emote
• Add custom message commands with simple responses
• Counting channel
• Question of the day reminder tag
• Count all emotes send in the server
• Cringe counter where you can increase and decrease as people behave in a cringe way (:D)
• Bump statistics, keeps track of how often people bump the server just for fun
• A bunch of other small fun commands like retrieving info from urban dictionary, generate images with AI and more
• Moderator statistics to see how productive moderators are

1. Download this repo and install al its dependencies with composer install
2. Create your env file mv .env.example .env and fill in database credentials
3. Fill in you Discord bot token credentials and any other api credentials:

BOT_TOKEN=
APPLICATION_ID=
SUPPORT_GUILD=
DISCORD_API=

TOPGG_TOKEN=
TOPGG_HOST=
TOPGG_ID=

URB_TOKEN=
URB_HOST=
OPENAI_API_KEY=
OPEN_AI_HOST=

The bot will set up everything correctly when it detects a guild for the first time. However you can use the seeder GuildSeeder and DiscordUsersSeeder to setup any users and guilds manually.

 class DiscordUsersSeeder extends Seeder
{
    public function run()
    {
        $ids = [
            '<discord_owner_id_here>', 
        ];
        foreach ($ids as $id) {
            DiscordUser::factory()->create([
                'discord_id' => $id,
            ]);
        }
    }
}

class GuildSeeder extends Seeder
{
    public function run()
    {
        $guilds = [
            [
                'name' => '<guild_name_here>',
                'guild_id' => '<guild_id_here>', // Servers are guilds
                'owner_id' => 1, // First user added in DiscordUsersSeeder
            ],
        ];
        foreach ($guilds as $guild) {
            Guild::factory()->create($guild);
        }
    }
}

• If you let the bot detect guilds itself you can set up the database using php artisan migrate:fresh --seeder=PermissionSeeder.
• To run all seeders including users and guilds you can use php artisan migrate:fresh --seed.

Managing slash commands is done through a separate cmd app using php artisan. When updating and deleting a bunch of commands you will be rate limited. Meaning it takes while before everything is registered. When deleting commands the console output will tell you the progress, however when adding commands the output it only send when everything is done (will change in the future), dont ctrl + c!

• php artisan bot:slash - Shows current available slash commands in discord! Not your config!
• php artisan bot:slash --update - Creates/updates all slash commands.
• php artisan bot:slash --delete - Delete all slash commands.

You can use the following commands to run the bot:

• php artisan bot:run - Run the bot, does not create, update or delete slash commands!
• php artisan queue:work - Run de redis queue for reminders.

There are three main configuration files for the bot (which you should bother with):

• config/commands.php - Define all slash commands here and their respective classes
• config/events.php - Define all event here and their respective classes
• config/discord.php - Global configuration - actual values should be in your .ENV file.

The actual values of these config files should be changed in your local .env. I pasted this config here so you know what all the values mean.

I don't like to autoload my commands. I use the subcommand structure for everything and I want complete freedom to say which command is in which category without being restricted by a certain directory structure, or go into each command class to define the command group there, this gives you a nice overview.

When adding commands to this list you need to either extend the SlashCommand or SlashIndexCommand class. I added the command sub-command structure as described by discord below. Define the array in the same way.

    /*

Now on to what the bot actually does..

I will try to update this readme with new functionality as I add it. The bot uses only slash commands! The slash commands all use sub commands to group them together and autocomplete is on where possible for all inputs!

Permission required when this bot gets added to the server.

• View audit log
• Read messages
• Send messages
• Manage messages
• Embed links
• Read message history
• Add Reactions
• Use voice activity

The bot uses a permissions and role system. Permissions are coded into the bot and available for you to assign to as many roles as you like, those roles can be assigned to as many users as you like. Users can also have multiple roles.

View Roles Create role, Delete role, Update role, Permissions, Update permission from role , Update roles from user, Manage the config, Manage timeouts, Media filter, Increase cringe counter, Decrease cringe counter, Manage custom commands, Manage reactions, Manage rewards, Manage xp for users, Manage channel flags, Manage log config, Add mention replies, Remove mention replies, Manage reply groups, Manage blacklist, Manage server invites, Manage custom messages

• Admin View Roles Create role, Delete role, Update role, Permissions, Update permission from role , Update roles from user, Manage the config, Manage timeouts, Media filter, Increase cringe counter, Decrease cringe counter, Manage custom commands, Manage reactions, Manage rewards, Manage xp for users, Manage channel flags, Manage log config, Add mention replies, Remove mention replies, Manage reply groups, Manage blacklist, Manage server invites, Manage custom messages.

• Moderator Manage timeouts, Media filter, Increase cringe counter, Decrease cringe counter, Manage custom commands, Manage reactions, Manage channel flags, Add mention replies, Remove mention replies, Manage reply groups, Manage blacklist, Manage custom messages.

• roles list • Overview of all roles and their permissions
• roles add role_name • Add a new role
• roles delete role_name • Delete a role
• roles roles user_mention • See your roles or those from another user
• permissions list • Overview of all permissions
• permissions add role_name perm_name • Add permission(s) to a role
• permissions delete role_name perm_name • Remove permission(s) from a role
• users list • Overview of all users and their roles
• users add user_mention role_name • Add user to the given role
• users delete user_mention role_name • Remove user from given role";

If enabled users can gain xp by sending messages and hanging out in voice. Check the Bot config section below for more control how much xp people gain per message, per minute in voice and if you want to enable this functionality at all. It is possible to attach role rewards to levels, when a user reaches that specific level a new role is granted.

For gaining xp in voice we have two extra rules:

• Muted users (either mic muted or both) do not gain XP.
• Users in a voice channel marked as no_xp will not gain XP.

More on how to set the no_xp flag to a channel later.

This is what I use to calculate required XP for each level: 5 * (lvl ^ 2) + (50 * lvl) + 100 - xp it is the exact same XP system as MEE6 uses. You can read more here -> https://github.com/Mee6/Mee6-documentation/blob/master/docs/levels_xp.md

• xp leaderboard • Show the leaderboard with the highest ranking members at the top
• xp rank user_mention • Show your own level, xp and messages or that of another user
• xp give user_mention xp_amount • Give user xp
• xp remove user_mention xp_amount • Remove user xp
• xp reset user_mention • Reset XP for user
• rewards level list • Show the role rewards for different levels
• rewards level add level role_id • Add a role reward to a level
• rewards level delete level • Delete role rewards from this level";

You can add role rewards based on how long people are in the server. Some duration examples:

• 1y2m3d - One year, two months and three days
• 4m - Four months
• 1y1d - One year and one day

• rewards duration list
• rewards duration add <duration> <role>
• rewards duration delete <duration>
• rewards duration sync

The bot loads a config from the settings table which can be viewed and changed, it allows only integer values! So when setting channels or roles make sure to use the IDS.

• config guid list
• config guild edit setting_name new_value

• xp_count - xp gained per message
• xp_cooldown - seconds cooldown after last message before it counts again
• xp_voice_count - xp gained in voice
• xp_voice_cooldown - cooldown for xp gain in voice
• enable_xp - enable the message xp system
• enable_voice_xp - enable the voice xp system
• enable_emote_counter - enable emote counters
• enable_role_rewards - enable role rewards for gaining levels
• enable_bump_counter - enable bump counter
• enable_reactions - enable custom reactions
• enable_commands - enable custom commands
• enable_logging - enable general logging
• enable_mention_responder - Enable the responses when you mention the bot
• enable_qotd_reminder - Enable the role mention in set question of the day channel
• enable_join_role - Enables giving users a role when they join the server
• enable_welcome_msg - Enable the welcome message
• enable_lvl_msg - Enable level up message
• enable_bump_reminder - enable reminder tag
• enable_count - Enable the counting channel
• bump_channel - Channel where the bump reminders are tagged
• qotd_channel - Channel to tag qotd role
• count_channel - Counting channel ID
• welcome_msg_channel - Channel to welcome user
• level_up_channel - Channel to send level up messages
• log_channel_id - set the channel ID where the log sends messages
• bump_reminder_role - Role to be tagged for bump reminders
• qotd_role - Role to tag in qotd channel
• join_role - Actual role to give when a user joins the server
• current_count - Current counter for counting channel

Users have their own settings per guild. For now, I only use a single setting but more to come soon.

• no_role_rewards - Disables gaining role rewards based on levels (if the guild has it enabled)

You can use the following commands to view/change your own settings:

• config user list - Show your config
• config user edit <setting_key> <setting_value> - Update a value in your user config

The bot is able to log some events to a specific log channel, you have to set the following two settings properly in the bot config to make it work:

• enable_logging - Enable the general log
• log_channel_id - Id of the channel where the log sends messages

I pretty much copied the way MEE6 logs events, it looks the same but it logs more and there is no delay. Not sure why MEE6 is sometimes so laggy.

The following events are logged:

• Joined server
• Left server
• Kicked from server
• Banned from server
• Unbanned from server
• Received timeout
• Joined voice call
• Left voice call
• Switched voice call
• Muted in voice by moderator
• Unmuted in voice by moderator
• Updated username (old and new username)
• Message updated (show old and new message)
• Message deleted (show deleted message)
• Invite created
• Invite removed
• Started streaming in voice
• Stopped streaming in voice
• Enabled his webcam in voice
• Disabled his webcam in voice

You can enable/disable each event in the log config:

• config log list - Look at the log config
• config log edit key value - Enable or disable one of the events

We have some commands which can help moderate the server, or improve other things!

You can set flags for channels, the no_xp flag can also be used for voice channels!

• no_xp - Bot does not count xp for users when they send messages in this channel
• media_only - Channel allows only media and URL, anything else will be deleted.
• no_stickers - Stickers will be removed from the chat
• no_log - Message logging is disabled for this channel

• channels list - List of channels with flags set
• channels flag channel flag - add flag to a channel
• channels unflag channel flag - remove flag from a channel

You can set reminders in a specific channel with a custom message! For now the reminder interval is in minutes!

• reminders list
• reminders create interval channel message
• reminders delete id

When adding custom messages you can use the :user parameter in you message to be replaced with a tag of the user, for level up messages you can also use :level. Example:

• Welcome :user!
• Congrats :user you are now :level!

You can add custom welcome messages to the bot. It wil pick one of the random messages and sends it in the channel set in the config.

• messages welcome list - Show list of custom level up messages
• messages welcome add <message> - Add new level up message
• messages welcome delete <message> - Delete level up message (Message is autocompleted)

You can set custom messages when users level up to a certain level. If you don't set any, a default message will be used if level up messages are enabled. When a user levels up, it checks for the highest message in the list which is not higher than that users level. Meaning if you set 2 messages, one for level 1 and one for level 10. The level 1 message will be used until that user reached level 10.

• messages levels list - Show list of custom level up messages
• messages levels add <level> <message> - Add new level up message
• messages levels delete <level> - Delete level up message

We are not satisfied with the audit log and how timeouts are displayed and filtered. It is not easy to quickly look up how often somebody has been timed out, for what reason and how long. Every timeout is automatically saved in the database including the reason and duration. We can easily see a history of timeouts + filter timeouts only for specific users.

• timeouts list <user_mention> - All timeouts or those from a specific user
• timeouts edit <timeout_id> <new_reason>- Update the reason for a timeout
• timeouts delete <timeout_id> - Remove a timeout from the log only

People can be put on a blacklist manually or automatically.

• blacklist list - Show everyone on the blacklist
• blacklist block <user_mention <reason> - Add someone to the blacklist
• blacklist unblock <user_mention> - Remove someone from the blacklist

You can make sure the bot gives users a role when they join the server. In order to make it work you have to set the following settings:

• enable_join_role - Enable or disable giving the role
• join_role - ID of the actual role to give

Since discord requires a "Mange server" permission to pause invites I added a simple command to do it with the bot:

• invites toggle - Enable/disable invites

Small funny feature, when you tag the bot you will get a random reply from a list of mention replies. There are default replies, but you can also add your own replies based on certain roles or users in the server.

The bot comes with some default groups and replies:

• If you have a high rank in the server (according to the xp system)
• If you are the highest person on the leaderboard (according to the xp system)
• If you bumped the discord the most (all time)
• If you bumped the discord a lot
• If you had timeouts in the past
• If you are highly ranked on the cringe counter leaderboard

You can manage all groups and their replies by using these commands:

• mention groups list - Show all groups
• mention groups add discord_role - Add a group
• mention groups delete group_id - Delete a group and its replies (!!!)
• mention replies group_id - Show all replies for a single group
• mention replies add group_id reply_line - Add a reply to a group
• mention replies delete reply_id- Delete a reply

A few fun commands you can use!

• fun urb search_term - Searches on urban dictionary
• fun 8ball question - Ask a question to the 8ball
• fun ask question - Ask a question and get a gif response
• fun say something - say something
• fun modstats - Who got the power?
• fun emotes - List of most used emotes in the guild
• fun bumpcounter time-range • Check the monthly or all time bump leaderboard
• cringe add <user> - Increase someone's cringe counter
• cringe delete <user> - Decrease someone's cringe counter
• cringe reset - Reset someone's cringe counter

In order to make the bump reminder work, you need to set the following 3 settings:

• enable_bump_reminder - Enable 2 hour tag for people who want to bump the discord
• bump_reminder_role - Role to be tagged for bump reminders
• bump_channel - Channel where the bump reminders are tagged

Certain strings can be added to the bot and when those strings are detected in a message the bot will add a reaction to the message with a set emote. These reactions can be added, removed and viewed with commands so nothing needs to be done in code.

• reactions list
• reactions add <word_trigger <reaction_emote>
• reactions delete <word_trigger

Simple commands such as $ping -> response pong can be added in discord as well. Same as with the reactions you can add and remove and view as many as you like without the necessity to enter any code. By default, these command triggers do not include the bot prefix, so if you want to trigger on prefix you need to include the bot prefix in the command.

• commands list
• commands add <command> <response>
• commands delete <command>

People requested a channel where they can count. You can't count twice in a row and when you make a mistake the counter is reset to 0, and you are excluding from counting by being put on the blacklist. The bot deletes any non-numeric messages from the counting channel. When you are blocked the bot will delete and ignore everything you type. :)

To make it work you need to set the following settings:

• enable_count - Enables the counting channel
• count_channel - Counting channel

It saves the current count in current_count, which you could also change manually.

In our server some people post questions every day, when they do the bot tags people who want to be reminded that a new question is posted. This way I do not have to give mention permissions which can be abused easily.

Check these settings:

• qotd_channel
• qotd_role
• enable_qotd_reminder

You can write /help on discord to get information on most commands in the bot and explanation how they work. You can pick your section from the list and get more info.

That's it for now! Enjoy! :)
