About

dbots helps Discord bot developers group all your statistic posting needs into one poster, complete with seperate posting, and a loop to post to all services every n seconds.

Installing

Python 3.6 or higher is required! You can install dbots by running this command:

# Linux/macOS
python3 -m pip install -U dbots

# Windows
py -3 -m pip install -U dbots

To install package from the master branch, do the following:

git clone https://github.com/dbots-pkg/dbots.py
cd dbots.py
python3 -m pip install -U

Examples

Example with client

Currently, only discord.py is supported as a usable client. (You can use any derivative of discord.py as long as it does not interfere with important properties used by dbots.)

import discord
import dbots

client = discord.Client()
poster = dbots.ClientPoster(client, 'discord.py', api_keys = {
    'top.gg': '…',
    'discord.bots.gg': '…'
})

@client.event
async def on_ready():
    print('Logged on as', client.user)
    await poster.post()
    # This posts to all lists every 30 minutes
    # You can stop the loop with `poster.kill_loop()`
    poster.start_loop()

@poster.event
async def on_auto_post(response):
    print('Auto-Post:', response)

"""
You can also define the event you want to get by adding an argument to the decorator.

@poster.event('post')
async def some_function(response):
    print(response)
"""

Example without client

import dbots

client_id = '1234567890'
def server_count():
  return 100
def user_count():
  return 100
def voice_connections():
  return 0

# `server_count`, `user_count`, and `voice_connections` can either be regular functions or coroutines
poster = dbots.Poster(client_id, server_count, user_count, voice_connections, api_keys = {
    'top.gg': '…',
    'discord.bots.gg': '…'
})

Services

Supported Services

• botlist.space
• botsfordiscord.com
• top.gg
• discord.bots.gg
• More services will be supported in a future release...

Adding Custom Services

You can add custom services by extending from the base service class (dbots.Service) and overriding the _post method.
Make sure to add the custom service class to the service keymap. (dbots.Service.SERVICE_KEYMAP) An example of adding a custom service can be shown here.

Adding a custom post function

You can add a custom post event by defining on_custom_post in the initialization of a Poster.
This function can be used when executing poster.post('custom') and when all services are being posted to. An example of adding a custom post function can be shown here.
