mehlbot 1.1.1

A baisc interface for discord bots to handle receiveing commands using the discord.py package.

MehlBot

MehlBot is a Discord bot that responds to commands by executing (callback) functions.

It's built around the discord.Client class. This allows an easy integration to existing bots and creation of new bots.

Documentation: docs

See examples/hellow_bot.py for full source code.

        super().__init__(intents=intents, **options)

    async def on_ready(self) -> None:  # Gets called when bot is ready/started
        print("Bot started.")

    async def on_message(self, message: Message):
        if message.author == self.user:  # skip if message's author is the bot
            return

        # necessary callback command
        # bot_commands are in mehlbot.command

        log_msg = "" if not command_found else "command: "
        log_msg += f"{message.author.nick} ({message.author.name}): '{message.content}'"
        print(log_msg)
