A discord bot assistant created using discord.py!

This repository contains main.py. The project relies on JSON data files stored in data/ and lightweight persistent user data stored in userdata/.

1. Create and activate a virtual environment:

python -m venv .venv
.\.venv\Scripts\Activate.ps1

2. Install dependencies:

pip install -r requirements.txt

3. Run the app:

python main.py

If your environment prevents script execution, run PowerShell as administrator or adjust the execution policy (be mindful of security).

• main.py: Application entry point.
• FunctionFiles.py: Shared functions and helpers used by main.py.
• requirements.txt: Python dependencies for the project.
• secrets.json: Configuration for secrets such as tokens or keys. DO NOT commit sensitive values.
• feedback.txt: Free-form feedback or notes.
• data/: JSON resources used by the bot.
  • animals.json, animals_emoji.json, help.json, roleplay.json, shop.json — example data resources used by the application.
• userdata/: runtime persistent data written by the app.
  • hug_count.json, slap_count.json, inventory.json — counters and per-user data.
  • users.csv: user records

• The data/ folder stores read-only resource files the app reads at runtime.
• The userdata/ folder stores runtime-modified JSON files and should be writable by the running process.
• If you back up or reset data, copy or remove files in userdata/ carefully to avoid loss.

• secrets.json likely contains API keys, tokens, or other sensitive settings. Do not add secrets to version control. Use environment variables or a separate secure store for production deployments.

• When adding new data files, place them in data/ and update code in FunctionFiles.py or main.py as needed.
• Run python -m pip install -r requirements.txt after changing dependencies.

• Fork or branch, implement changes, and open a pull request with a clear description of your changes.

• For quick notes or issues, add them to feedback.txt or open an issue in your chosen tracker.
