README

A framework to help build a Discord bot and route incoming messages. Features include:

  • Restrict commands to particular channels
  • Restrict commands to particular roles
  • Respond to various message properties only including:
    • Private messages
    • Mentions
    • Messages containing particular phrases

It's a work in progress, in particular it could do with a good DSL in front of the matchers in order make specifying a bot much prettier on the eyes.
