Espybot is a Discord bot written in PHP, using MySQL for chat logs and configuration storage.

• OS: Linux 64-bit (Windows is difficult to set up this bot on and voice support does not work.)
• PHP: Version 5.6 64-bit (32bit does not work due to IDs being 64bit integers.)
• PHP Modules: mysqlnd, PDO, pdo_mysql
• MySQL: MySQL 5.6+ (Tested with MariaDB 10)

To install all dependencies, run the following commands:

cd /path/to/project/
./composer.phar install

To setup the database, run the following commands:

cd /path/to/project/
echo "create database espybot" | mysql -u root -p
mysql -u root -p espybot < espybot.sql

Copy the included config config/config.ini.default as config/config.ini and edit with your desired options. This assumes you have registered a BOT account with Discord and have the token already.

Now to start the bot:

cd /path/to/project/
php espybot.php

If debug mode is enabled in config.ini, all websocket connection messages are shown as well as chat and what the bot is doing. This can be used to help diagnose why the bot isn't responding or not connecting.
