HypeBot

A Discord bot for managing events. Uses Serenity for the bot framework and sled for the database

Usage

Creating an event can be done using the create command.

~create "Test Event" "5:35PM 2020-05-17" "A very cool test event!" "Cool Place"

This creates a draft event that the user can then review:

A user can then use the confirm command to create the event and publish it:

Users who react with ✅ will then be sent reminders about the event as private message.
