opportunities-forwarding-bot

A Discord bot that forwards content from GitHub!

Testing it

• First, make sure you update it to fetch from your own GitHub repo! Currently, this must be changed by editing src/github_scraper.rs.
  • Without changing this, the bot will take opportunities from this repository's discussion tab.
• Next, you'll need to create a Discord application and add a bot to it.
  • This tutorial explains how to do that.
  • When generating your token, make sure you give the bot these permissions:
• After setting up the application, clone this repository. If you haven't installed rust and cargo, do so now.
• Make sure you've invited the bot to a server with a public channel named opportunities!
• After building the repository (via cargo build), start the bot using cargo run "<Your token goes here>".
  • The bot should forward opportunities from the GitHub repository's opportunities discussion category to your Discord server!
