API endpoint to get individual bot

[MattIPv4]

It would be nice if there was an endpoint similar to api/bots/all.json but for each individual bot. Eg. api/bots/:id.json

Thanks.

Other than raising ls.terminal.ink out from the grave, I don't have a good way of getting Jekyll to do this. I could get Node.js to split the files, but it diverges from the "Use Jekyll only" philosophy...

But at this point, I might as well.

[MattIPv4]

Node is an option, as discussed in Discord, it might be possible to populate the api/bots directory with the bot json files during the build process which would allow the whole Jekyll only mantra to stay.

Might also use Discord_Fork as a way to add projects, for a real backend that does everything

I'm currently attempting to attack this using Jekyll itself, by using Ruby plugins

[7coil]

im kinda retarded at jekyll's ruby tho, so please excuse the crud

[7coil]

I've got some output!

There is a test environment in PR #76. Preview this here

keys.json all.json wendesday's .json file

[MattIPv4]

Looks pretty sweet. Is there any reason that the invite is called link and not invite?

[7coil]

It's an agnostic term which applies to both bots and servers

[MattIPv4]

Invite would also work for both 🤔 and is probably more descriptive

[7coil]

It's also the term that's already in all .yml files

[MattIPv4]

Ah okay fair enough then. Other than that, looks absolutely great.
