# ao_killboard.py

A minimalistic Discord bot for Albion Online's killboard.

## Getting Started

### Prerequisites
* [Python >= 3.6](https://www.python.org/downloads/) or [Docker](https://www.docker.com/)

### Built with:
* [discord.py](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html)
* [httpx](https://www.python-httpx.org/)

### Getting the bot via pip
```
pip install ao-killboard
```

### Getting the bot via Docker Hub
```
docker pull unresolvedexternal/ao-killboard
```

### Getting the bot via Git
```
git clone https://github.com/antze-k/ao-killboard-py
python3 -mpip install -r ao-killboard-py/requirements.txt
```
Change your working directory to `cd ao-killboard-py/src/antze` and run the bot with either of those, depending on your system setup:
* `python3 ao_killboard.py`
* `python ao_killboard.py`
* `ao_killboard.py`
* `./ao_killboard.py`

The documentation will refer to `ao_killboard.py` further for simplicity.

### Creating a bot account and setting it up for your server (guild)
* [https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/discord.html](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/discord.html)
* [https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/discord.html#inviting-your-bot](https://discordpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/discord.html#inviting-your-bot) (you don't have to add any specific permissions here, if you choose to add Send Messages permission manually for your channel)
* [Setting permissions](https://support.discordapp.com/hc/en-us/articles/206029707-How-do-I-set-up-Permissions-) (scroll down to Channel Permissions)

### Configure and run
Set up three parameters (guild, token and channel) either using environment variables or using command line arguments.
* "guild" is your Albion Online guild identifier (as seen in `https://albiononline.com/en/killboard/guild/<ID>`)
* "token" is your bot token obtained in the previous step
* "channel" is the Discord channel ID the bot will post messages into (check [this article](https://support.discordapp.com/hc/en-us/articles/206346498-Where-can-I-find-my-User-Server-Message-ID-) if you need to know how to obtain it)

You can always run `ao_killboard.py --help` to check the available options.

#### Running the bot manually using command line arguments
```
ao_killboard.py --guild <GUILD-ID> --token <DISCORD-TOKEN> --channel <123456789>
```
or, to enable debug logging:
```
ao_killboard.py --guild <GUILD-ID> --token <DISCORD-TOKEN> --channel <123456789> --debug
```
Replace the <PLACEHOLDERS> with their respective values, omitting angle brackets.

#### Running the bot using environment values and a batch script (Windows)
Paste the following into a file with a name like "start-bot.cmd":
```
@echo off
set AO_KILLBOARD_GUILD=<GUILD-ID>
set AO_KILLBOARD_TOKEN=<DISCORD-TOKEN>
set AO_KILLBOARD_CHANNEL=<123456789>
ao_killboard.py %*
```
Replace the <PLACEHOLDERS> with their respective values, omitting angle brackets. To enable debug logging, add `set AO_KILLBOARD_DEBUG=1` before the last line.

#### Running the bot using environment values and a shell script (POSIX-like OS)
Paste the following into a file with a name like "start-bot.sh":
```
AO_KILLBOARD_GUILD=<GUILD-ID>
AO_KILLBOARD_TOKEN=<DISCORD-TOKEN>
AO_KILLBOARD_CHANNEL=<123456789>
exec ao_killboard.py "$@"
```
Replace the <PLACEHOLDERS> with their respective values, omitting angle brackets. Set the execute bit by running `chmod +x start-bot.sh`. To enable debug logging, add `AO_KILLBOARD_DEBUG=1` before the last line.

#### Running the bot using Docker
```
docker run --rm -d --env 'AO_KILLBOARD_GUILD=<GUILD-ID>' --env 'AO_KILLBOARD_TOKEN=<DISCORD-TOKEN>' --env 'AO_KILLBOARD_CHANNEL=<123456789>' unresolvedexternal/ao-killboard
```
or, to enable debug logging:
```
docker run --rm -d --env 'AO_KILLBOARD_GUILD=<GUILD-ID>' --env 'AO_KILLBOARD_TOKEN=<DISCORD-TOKEN>' --env 'AO_KILLBOARD_CHANNEL=<123456789>' --env 'AO_KILLBOARD_DEBUG=1' unresolvedexternal/ao-killboard
```
Replace the <PLACEHOLDERS> with their respective values, omitting angle brackets. You might also want to add `--name ao-killboard` or any other Docker switches you would prefer.
