Can the post notification bot run on Discord?
« on: May 16, 2019, 07:48:29 AM »
On IRC, we have a bot in #neolemmix and #lix that informs us when new posts are made. It'd be nice to have this on Discord, too.

Is the source code of this bot available, in particular, for the detection of new posts (I figure porting the "send message" from IRC to Discord, assuming Discord has some kind of API to allow for this - and I've seen plenty of bots on there so I assume it must - would be relatively simple).

2D Lemmings: NeoLemmix (engine) | Lemmings Plus Series (level packs) | Doomsday Lemmings (level pack)
3D Lemmings: Loap (engine) | L3DEdit (level / graphics editor) | L3DUtils (replay / etc utility) | Lemmings Plus 3D (level pack)

Mindless runs loopybot, I'll ping Mindless on IRC.

Mindless's public repo of the bot, it doesn't look like loopybot supports Discord.

There's no Discord support.  The RSS plugin isn't in the repo either because it's a hacked-up combination of Python and Lua scripts.
