• Might be causing issues with interaction HTTP 400s

Command will just be /roles

• Selector menu to pick

Parity with Comrade V5 / Ground Dragon

• Inline emotes
• Big emotes, possibly re-implemented as stickers

Backend improvements

• Modifications to storage format of emojis, will need a system to port old ones to new

New Features

• Loading

In discord utils, add an embed which automatically shortens fields upon serialize (or modification)

Similar to nhentai
https://github.com/AbstractUmbra/Hondana

Low priority; get other bot functions up first

Maybe useful for nhentai stuff, as well as logs

• keep button enabled always
• But make it so that previous page for page 0 yields an error

Put comrade-specific logs under a "Comrade" logger name.

The interaction.py logs are too cluttery when set to INFO.

Upgrade WUMBODB for storing all non-performance critical databases (e.g. server configs) and link as a git submodule.

Discord server-based communication and content storage

• Add an OrderedDict to relay, which is empty on startup, and fills as queries are made to find_blob_url and create_blob

• updater utils
• role manager module
• Relay: start with documents already in a temporary collection

Using pytest-cov and codecov

Port the V5 announcements system over to V7

The indented block is messed up.

Due to the way the cache is implemented, there is no distinction between the spoiler'd vs unspoiler'd versions of the image. Modify the call to the mirror blob function to include a {"spoiler": True/False} field.

Also benchmark the performance between the two solutions to see if it actually is worth it to cache! (the overhead of sending a message takes a while)

Use the relay system; have the bot listen to GitHub webhooks, and auto-patch + restart

In the pre-emptive cache, add functionality to look behind as well, for example when gpage is called.

Also, add a "previous page" button

Backend

Monkey-patch the booru library to:

• 1. Reuse aiohttp sessions
• 2. Use orjson for JSON operations

(Addressed in https://github.com/itchono/booru-modified)

• 3. Cloning the image to discord?

Frontend

• Make sorting and display options more usable
• perhaps allow toggling of viewing tags
• #41
• #50

Using the inspect module, we can modify the signature of a function when viewed for type hinting. This allows you to turn a signature like:

def func(foo, *args, **kwargs):
   ...

into a signature that mimics another function.

We will copy over relevant aspects of the signature from Webhook.send.

Implementation Details

• Use decorators to keep things clean

• only launch jurigged extension when developing; no real need to use it when deployed
• single-step updating scheme
• Show git branch in status

Special member of the day for when it's someone's birthday

Implementation

• Some way for users to add their birthday into the system
• Integrate into Member of the day

Dependent on the existing MOTD system, or some temporary workaround

Modify existing caching behaviour implemented in #55 .

Based on difficulties seen in #60 (comment), one solution to maintaining a "warm cache" is to pre-emptively cache images when a gallery is first requested.

Since storage space is not a concern, this solution gives the best possible performance.

This was supposed to be left in for testing only.

Implement /nhentai gpage <page number>

Challenges

• Certain fields are missing, but I think they can be inferred

Fails when parsing a title such as:
aaa] bbb because of improperly structured braces.

Change parser to:

1. Fail gracefully
2. Change the approach taken to special case titles like these e.g. if the stack is empty

Goals

• Port over the NHentai viewer system from Ground Dragon

Requirements for Feature Parity

• View any available six digit work
• Search for tags
• Multiple-proxy system (using other providers, Google Translate proxy) for Cloudflare bypass

New Ideas to Explore

• Caching downloaded works
• Performance Improvements
• Modularity
• • Panel viewer, using https://github.com/njean42/kumiko
    And https://github.com/reidenong/ComicPanelSegmentation
• #15
• #16

Implementation Plan

• Make a new NHentai library under lib, which abstracts away the scraping operations from the commands, similarly to booru_lib
• Make the commands interface under modules, and make it similar to what Ground Dragon uses

Features

• #39
• Image caching
• #56
• Sort Order
• #49

Blockers

• Image Caching: wait for SnailMail system to get built.

post doesn't have a tags attribute

• Set up secrets environment on Github
• Separate offline, online without auth, and online with auth tests
• Implement tests for V5 Emoji system

https://github.com/interactions-py/interactions.py/blob/stable/tests/test_bot.py#L72

Document the slash commands.

Maybe also add a lorem ipsum function to the bot for filler text

Standard format

(If applicable)

Commands to Document

• /status
• /log
• /remind
• Role management
• booru
• nhentai gallery
• nhentai search
• nhentai gpage

Try adding static type checking into dev flow and/or CI

• Make sure correct commands are disabled in DMs
• Make sure owner only commands are properly configured per guild (test with alt account)

Joinable ranks similar to Dyno's ranks

This may be of use:
https://github.com/itchono/Engsci-Bot/blob/master/roler.py

Make a proper config file system.

Maybe do this?
https://github.com/HBNetwork/python-decouple#python-decouple-strict-separation-of-settings-from-code

Should be able to:

• Read from file
• Read from environment variables
• Swap between the two if needed

This should only be visible in servers.

Out of concerns of leaking data between discord requests and others.

Rather than being able to set an absolute time, make it so that the user can cancel

Try to replace all instances of datetime with Arrow.

Currently there is an issue in the /status command.

Inside /status, use .humanize, and difference_only
