A discord bot written in Rust, for personal use.
You can specify the location of the config file by setting the CONFIG
environment variable (i.e.: CONFIG=$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/fercord/config.toml
) or if not specified we look in .config/config.toml
in the current working directory.
Example config.toml
:
discord_token = "your-bot-token"
database_url = "sqlite://fercord.db"
redis_url = "redis://localhost/"
job_interval_min = 1
shard_key = "c69b7bb6-0ca4-40da-8bad-26d9d4d2fb50"
- discord_token: Your bot token
- databse_url: the url to the database. Currently we only support postgres
- redis_url: the url to the redis instance used to store runtime configuration
- job_interval_min: the interval (in minutes) that the scheduler leaves between runs
- shard_key: a UUID that should be unique per bot instance that is connecting to the same key-value store
The following items should be added to the configuration file if the file is to be used with the web API:
session_key = "base64 value"
client_id = 948517362313863198
- session_key: A random base64'ed value that is at least 64 characters long (after base64 encode). This value is used as the base secret for session encryption.
- client_id: Go to the Discord Developer Portal, select your application and go to the OAuth 2 settings. Copy the client id found there to this setting (no quotes).
You will also need to set the following environment variable: FERCORD_CLIENT_SECRET
. This secret can be found on the same page as the client id.
Every variable mentioned above can be overriden from the environment. The correct environment variable prefix is "FERCORD_".
To override your discord token you would set the environment variable FERCORD_DISCORD_TOKEN
to your token.
Settings set through environment variables take precedence over configuration set via a config file.
The container has a built-in config.toml
stored at /config/config.toml
. The only setting there is job_interval_min (set to 1).
If you want to build your own docker image, you can override the location fercord looks for the config file by setting the CONFIG
environment variable in the Dockerfile.
This means the following environment variables HAVE to be specified in order for the container to be able to function:
- FERCORD_DISCORD_TOKEN
- FERCORD_DATABASE_URL
- FERCORD_REDIS_URL
- FERCORD_SHARD_KEY
- FERCORD_SESSION_KEY
- FERCORD_CLIENT_ID
If you want a different job interval, you can specify it through FERCORD_JOB_INTERVAL_MIN
.
The sqlite database is placed in the /data
directory and called fercord.db
. The container exposes /data
as a volume, so it will persist between updates etc.
The default value for RUST_LOG
in the container is info,sqlx::query=warn
. You can override this, but if you choose to, please copy the value for sqlx::query
.
Any log level lower than that will output the queries that sqlx runs, which might be a security issue.
