discordjs / discord-toolkit-bot Goto Github PK

As mentioned in the /tag query: bin command, users should upload large code snippets to a bin service instead of uploading them as files. Some reasons include:

• They cannot be viewed within the client on mobile (must open in browser or download)
• Trying to expand it will lead to the same issue, it will just be a big codeblock again but hideable
• Trying to view full-screen and referring back to other messages in chat is a hassle
• You cannot Ctrl + F to quickly find a keyword
• You can upload the code to a bin service yourself but that can become a hassle, especially on mobile
• You can always tell the user to upload it to a bin service themselves, but they're d.js members so you never know

Possible Solution

Upon detecting a message in a help channel with a .txt/.js/.ts file, upload the contents of the file to a bin service. Then, silently reply to the message with the link to the bin.

As for which bin service to use, I think sourcebin is the most popular but I can't find if they have a public API or not. Pastebin is a close contender.

Concept

What about moving github command here ? + adding more things to find like comments

The bot will look at the content of messages (Maybe the content of files too) and look for tokens. If it finds a token, then it will publish that token to GitHub Gist to be invalided by Discord.
