Install Visual Studio and .NET 5. It's also possible to use VS Code or another IDE that supports C# development (JetBrains Rider, for example).

wget https://packages.microsoft.com/config/debian/10/packages-microsoft-prod.deb -O packages-microsoft-prod.deb
sudo dpkg -i packages-microsoft-prod.deb

sudo apt-get update;
sudo apt-get install -y apt-transport-https;
sudo apt-get update;
sudo apt-get install -y dotnet-sdk-5.0;

sudo dnf install dotnet-sdk-5.0

1. Create an app on the Discord Developer portal and retrieve a token from the Bot section.
2. Create a copy of appsettings.json and name it appsettings.Development.json .
3. Fill your bot token into appsettings.Development.json.
4. Run the application either in an IDE (VS, VSC, Rider, ...) or via the command prompt:

dotnet run --project <path_to_src/Inkluzitron>

Using Docker is recommended for production deployment. All files necessary can be found in the src directory.

1. Enter the src/ directory (cd src/).
2. Create a copy of the environment.template.env file named environment.env, and fill the required values inside.
3. Run docker-compose up. The bot should be automatically built and run.

Prepare your environment file (first two steps in section Local build), and then run these commands:

docker pull misha12/inkluzitron
docker run -d --name Inkluzitron --env-file '/path/to/environment/environment.env' misha12/inkluzitron

• src/ - Source code.
  • Inkluzitron – Directory containing project.
    • bin/ – Binaries.
    • obj/ – You don't need to know.
    • Data/ - Classes that constitute the bot's data model.
    • Migrations/ - Code responsible for updating the database schema. It is generated automatically, do not edit these files manually.
    • Extensions/ – Extension methods that can make your life easier.
    • Handlers/ – Classes and methods for handling events. You're probably not going to need them.
    • Modules/ – Classes and modules that handle commands, reactions, etc. You're mostly going to implement your shiny new code here.
    • Services/ – Support services to make life nicer. You're probably never going to modify these.
    • appsettings.json – The primary configuration file (and configuration template as well).
    • Inkluzitron.csproj – The project file.
    • ... (You can ask the others about the other files.)
  • .editorconfig – DO NOT TOUCH!
  • Inkluzitron.sln – The solution file (this encapsulates the project and this is the file to open in VS or Rider).
• README.md – The thing you are reading right now.
• README.cs.md – The thing you are reading right now but in Czech.
• .gitignore

• If you add a new configuration section, remember to include it in appsettings.json, so that the others know what you've added and don't have a hard time adjusting their own config files.
• Use PRs (pull requests) to add features or make changes. NO ONE may push directly to the master branch.
• If you are not sure or don't know how to do something, don't be shy about asking others for help.
• Check the console (stdout, stderr) for any logs.
• This project uses a dependency-injection container. It's required by the Discord.NET library.
• If you want to start saving a new entity into the bot's database, you'll need to create an entity class and add it as a property of type DbSet<TridaNoveEntity> in Data/BotDatabaseContext.cs.
• If you make any changes to the data model (i.e. touch anything in the Data) folder, remember to also generate a migration using the below command:

  dotnet ef migrations add TerseSummaryOfChangesMadeToDataModel

  You might need to install the dotnet ef tool first according to the EF Core documentation.
• If you want to add something, just follow these steps (everything should load automatically):
  1. Create a new class in the Modules/ directory (and namespace).
  2. Inherit from the ModuleBase class.
  3. Enjoy!
• Each module that contains commands will be automatically promoted when the help command is called. If you want the commands to display correctly, follow these steps:
  1. Set the Name attribute to the class. If the Name attribute is missing, the class name is used.
  2. For each command, you can enter a summary description of the command using the Summary attribute. If the Summary attribute is missing, the string---will be added instead.
