RC24 Bot

It took a while, but it's finally here...

Introducing a JDA version of RiiConnect24 Bot

or.. rather, what's on master. What is currently running, I can't quite say.

Why does this bot use JDA

While discordrb is awesome, it usually takes quite a bit for newly added API features to come out. That's fine for most bots, but most in the community wanted the latest as soon as possible.

Also, the fact more users know Java in RiiConnect24's community helped the decision.

How do i set up the bot to host it myself?

I'm glad you asked.

A note: We no longer use YAML except for the config (which was just a Ruby class before), as Java really doesn't like YAML.

Check out the following steps:

1. You'll need to have MySQL installed.
2. We'll create the Redis structures as we go, so no need to set anything up.
3. git clone the repo somewhere and cd into it.
4. It's time to start building... Run ./gradlew shadowJar! And... tada! That's it. You can find JAR(s) created in /build/libs. Easy!
5. For running, make sure you have MySQL installed on whatever machine.

If you need support for the bot, head on over to the bot's official support server.
