Website, Documentation and Configuration Dashboard
Intro
A Discord bot for server and community management with a focus on school/programming/fun related commands.
-
Moderation: Moderation and Moderation logging is made easy with ClemBot, Banning, Muting and Warning are all supported and easy to use
-
Role Management: Easily manage you and your users roles with designated assignable roles
-
Customizable Prefix: Whatever you want ClemBot to respond to, it can. Just set your servers preferred prefix with
!prefix <prefix>. -
Python Repl: Coding is fun, Discord is fun. Put them together and collaborative learning is easy with a built-in python interpreter. Just type your python code into discord and run it with
!evaland watch the bot evaluate your code. -
Message Logging: ClemBot offers the ability to log message edits and deletions, just run
!channels add message_log #mychannelto designate a channel as a log message -
Tags: Tags allow you to create message snippets that can be invoked right in discord with a simple inline command. Just run
!tag add <MyTagName> <MyTagsBody>and invoke it with$MyTagName -
Welcome Messages: You can optionally set a message to be sent to new members of your server. Making it easy to make sure people understand rules and procedures.
-
Expression Evaluator: ClemBot implements the shunting yard algorithm to allow for rapid mathematical expression evaluation right in discord. just run

Architecture overview
ClemBot utilizes a standard three tier architecture. The ClemBot.Bot project makes requests to the ClemBot.Api project, which then subsequently queries the PostgreSQL database.
ClemBot.Bot
The bot is set up in a simple way. There are 3 layers, the Cog Layer, the Service Layer and the Route Layer. Cogs and Services communicate exclusively through the messenger. This allows us to maintain total decoupling of the layers.
- Cog Layer: This is where the frontend bot command code resides. Anything that you directly use to interface with discord goes in this layer.
- Service Layer: This is where all things that are bot related but not controlled through front end commands live. Things like user tracking, event handling, etc., all go in here.
- Route Layer: This is the route abstraction on top of the ApiClient. This layer defines methods that correspond to routes that are sent back to the ClemBot.Api project
The bot loads Cogs and Services dynamically. To create a new command, simply create a class that inherits from commands.Cog and define a setup function in module scope at the bottom. See example_cog.py for an example.
The bot does the same thing for services, to see how to define a service, see example_service.py.
ClemBot.Api
The API utilizes the following technologies...
...and is split up into several different projects under one solution:
- ClemBot.Api.Data contains the Entity Framework code-first database models and contexts.
- ClemBot.Api.Core contains the startup project and Asp.Net endpoints located in the
Featuresfolder. - ClemBot.Api.Services contains the caching and authorization services that perform more complex tasks.
ClemBot.Site
The site is a server-side Nuxt.js and Vue.js app that integrates with Discord OAuth.
