Group Up is a Discord bot built for scheduling events in your Guild. The bot utilizes user-friendly Buttons, Slash Commands, and Forms to create events. Currently, Group Up has built in support for Destiny 2 and Among Us, but any event can be created for any game using the Create Custom Activity button.

This bot was originally designed to replace the less reliable event scheduling provided by the Destiny 2 bot, Charlemagne, utilizing new Discord features many months before Charlemagne did.

I am hosting this bot for public use and you may find its invite link below. If you would like to host this bot yourself, details of how to do so are found at the end of this README, but I do not recommend this unless you are experienced with running Discord bots.

After inviting the bot, if you want to create a dedicated event channel, simply run /setup in the desired channel and follow the on-screen prompts. If you don't want a dedicated channel, just run /create-event anywhere.

Note: The MANAGE_GUILD, MANAGE_CHANNELS, and MANAGE_ROLES permissions are only necessary for the /setup command. Once you create all of the event channel that you need, you may remove these permissions from the bot without causing any issues.

Group Up is built on Deno v1.33.1 using Discordeno v17.0.1. If you choose to run this yourself, you will need to rename config.example.ts to config.ts and edit some values. You will need to create a new Discord Application and copy the newly generated token into the "token" field. If you want to utilize some of the bots dev features, you will need to fill in the keys "logChannel" and "reportChannel" with text channel IDs and "devServer" with a guild ID.

You will also need to install and setup a MySQL database with a user for the bot to use to add/modify the database. This user must have the "DB Manager" admin rights and "REFERENCES" Global Privileges. Once the DB is installed and a user is setup, run the provided db\initialize.ts to create the schema and tables. After this, run db\populateDefaults.ts to insert some needed values into the tables.

Once everything is set up, starting the bot can simply be done with deno run --allow-write=./logs --allow-net .\mod.ts.
