Helix3

The third iteration of Helix

How do i install?

Check the wiki, install and config guides are there

So what does each file do?

boot.py prepares the bot to boot, handles the logging setup and archive. You run this file to start the bot

code/bot.pythe main bot file. This code handles loading and unloading cogs, logging in, shutting down, and all other core functions

code/fun.py a cog file for all "fun" commands

code/moderation.py a cog for all "moderation" commands

code/music.py a cog for all music functions

code/utilites.py a cog for all "utilities" commands

code/porn.py a cog for all the cough naughty commands

code/get.py is an unfinnished collection of helper functions to allow per server settings

code/chatbot.py a cog for helix's chatbot capability, based on A.L.I.C.E. AIML Bot

Any code files prefaced with "misc_" are just files that return a random string in line with 1the name. These will be gone soon so just ignore them.

How do i load a cog?

bot.add_cog([cogName](param))

How do i unload a cog?

bot.remove_cog("[cogName]")

Can my cog be added to reload?

Yeah, just use the rest of the command as guidance

Can i use the requests module?

NO, use aiohttp.get instead

How do i make a command?

Go to the appropriate cog file, go into the class and use the following:

    @commands.command(pass_context=[bool], no_pm=[bool])
    async def [command name](self, ctx): # use ctx, if pass_context is true
        [code for your command]
