Just as I had planned I improved the welcome thing.

When ppl join my channel the bot sends a welcome msg with a big fat squishy asmr satisfying button. This time I worked on to make the button a one-time-button and only allowing the joinee to press the button…

Ah yes! I also spent some time finishing up the banner image. Looks cool imo. But there are overall 3 different views I encountered in stardance.hackclub.com. And it looks bad in 2 of them due to the image being cropped…idk what I should do… the natural thing to do would be to bring everything to the center…but that’d look ugly…idk what to do. I think I’ll finish this project with this devlog. I still have to make the README, but that shouldn’t take much time, i’ll do that in github’s online editor

It’s been a smooth and calm day for me. So smooth that something feels off…idk but everything I had in mind worked super easily… something definitely is off…

Anyway, first thing I did was make the /icekeem-help command. It was easy - just like a print statement. Also added link to the blog in /icekeem-blog command.

I also made the event triggers for people joining/leaving my channel. There probably are bugs rn… but we’ll fix them when we encounter them. The slack docs is amazing! I google stuff and almost always the first thing in the slack docs has my answer, I don’t want to admit but the google ai in the search also is useful…

The last thing I did before sleeping was make the sleep function work… I couldn’t, lastly had to resort to ai making the code for me.

I didn’t try to partition my code in different files like I’d like to. I will, if the codebase becomes more than 500+ lines.

Today morning I tried the blog command and found that the link is not working. Easy fix, I path was defined in the top layer insead of inside meta.

I also added buttons for the people who join my channel. It is great you should check it out!! Making this frustrated me a little, but it worked by the end. I had to ask AI for help with making the button green like my previous workflow bot had. Fortunately a single option did the trick.

After done with coding, I made the “banner”(?) for this project. It is still a wip, but it is something. I think I’ll change the bg for the screenshots of the bot working. But that is a task for future me.

My next steps will be to make the button one time use and the “ping me” message be sent in thread.

The bot setup and a basic Ping/fetch function to my own blogs!

There is not much to say about my progress since things aren’t going very complex rn. I made a ping command that takes a int for timeout/sleeping (which doesn’t work rn…sob)

While following the tutorial I saw them using the Cat Facts API, and I remembered that I also made an API for my blogs! So I used that to fetch the latest BLOG that I have updated. Currently the site of blogs and the blogs aren’t really finished either…so we’ll just have to work with what crap had the last time I worked on it

The one thing that took some time was figuring out how the arguments work. Another thing that took some time is FIGURING OUT HOW TO USE A FUNCTION DEFINED IN ANOTHER FILE 😭 I couldn’t figure that out…probably will ask my friends for help.

I plan on adding triggers for when ppl join my channel…also is buttons available now? Those chonky buttons were great, I hope they are available to use in a bot :prayge:
