A simple bot for activity tracking / leveling on Discord. Inspired by Mee6. Designed for more customization (for my own needs at least) and to not have all the unrelated Mee6 features in the way (especially not the whole 'premium' thing yknow).

By default, when a user posts a message (at least one minute after their last message), they get a random bit of XP from 15 to 25 points. This XP is used to obtain levels, that are incrementally harder to reach (reaching level 1 only takes about 5 messages, but level 100 takes millions).

• Just click here.

• For now, the admin configuration panel is very cheap and simple: type @LevelsBot admin-configure for info.
• You can do for example @LevelsBot admin-configure restrict_channel 1234 to prevent that channel from being used to gain XP.
• You can configure channel restrictions, level role rewards (role auto-granted when a user hits a level), XP per tick minimum and maximum, time between messages before XP should be allowed to tick again, minimum level before "level up!" notifications show.

• 0: Before setup: This is intended to run on a Linux server, with git, screen, and dotnet-6-sdk installed. If you're not in this environment... you're on your own for making it work. Should be easy, but I'm only documenting my own use case here.
• 1: Clone this repo with git clone
• 2: Make sure to checkout submodules as well: git submodule update --init --recursive (the start.sh will automatically do this for you)
• 3: create folder config at top level
• 4: You need to have a Discord bot already - check this guide if you don't know how to get one. Requires messages intent, and slash commands grant. Make sure to add the bot to your server(s).
• 5: within config create file token.txt with contents being your Discord bot's token
• 6: if you want, create config.fds and configure it according to config reference below
• 7: ./start.sh. Will run in a screen which you can attach to with screen -r levelsbot

Reference format for config.fds:

webpage:
    # If true, will enable the leaderboard webpage host
    enable: false
    # If enabled, you can configure the listen address
    # It is strongly recommended you bind an internal port and use a reverse proxy like nginx or apache2.
    listen: http://127.0.0.1:8099/
    # The external address of the website, for generated links
    address: https://example.com/
