discord-votemaster

This is the beginnings of a complex polling bot for Discord, allowing for advanced polls with many options, vote restrictions, and even graphs of results.

Syntax

To make new polls:

!newpoll "poll name" [Option 1, Option 2] --yn|yesno --num|numbers --lock --blind --time|timeout 5 --mult|multiple --rxn|reactions --maybe|idk --pub|public --role "role" --lo|leaveopen|dontcloseearly --color 2555834

• yn: convert to a yes/no poll (has no effect if more than two options)
• num: convert to a number poll (1,2,3,4) (has no effect if more than 10 options)
• lock: answers cannot be edited even if there is time left. If everyone answers, poll ends immediately.
• blind: answers are private (answer with DMs, blind ballot style)
• time #: # = time in minutes before poll ends (defaults to 30)
• multiple: allows for voting for multiple items (rather than just one each)
• rxn: vote by reactions instead of messages (enables mult)
• maybe: adds a 'maybe' option in addition to other choices
• role "role": restricts voting to users with a matching role
• leaveopen: Leave the poll open if there's time left, even if everyone in the server has voted.
• color #: # = RGB integer color code to customize poll color

To vote:

!vote #PollID Option

• #PollID Optional if only one poll running. The ID for the poll being voted in.
• Option The option to be voted for.

To request results:

!results #PollID --users|detail --chart|graph

• #PollID Optional if only one poll running. The ID for the poll results are being requested for.
• users: Show who voted for what
• chart: generate a chart when the poll ends

Testing

To set up the bot on your machine, you will need Node.js installed. Clone the repo, follow the instructions in "private_example.js" and save as "private.js", add the bot to your server, and finally run node index.js in a command window in the folder with the code.
