LiveThreadBot is now live (programming.dev)
submitted 1 week ago* (last edited 1 day ago) by [email protected] to c/football
 

As some of you may have seen, the community now has a match thread bot to help with automating creation and updating match threads.

The bot takes a request in the format -football [email protected] Barcelona - Real Madrid and will look up to 6 days ahead for an upcoming match and add it to a queue. ~15 minutes before kick off it will make a post that it will continuously update with available score, stats and commentary.

To make a request you can either tag the bot or reply to one of the bot's comments. See the comments for an interaction example.

The bot will work in any community federated with lemmy.world so if you want to create a live thread in e.g. c/gunners you could make a request like this -football [email protected] Arsenal - Tottenham Hotspur

Do note that the bot requires approval from a mod or admin to post in a community. So unless you're a mod/admin, you'll need to ask them to approve the bot via -mod_action whitelist [email protected] or become a trusted user that can bypass the block -mod_action trust [email protected] [email protected]

For a more detailed and technical overview of the bot's capabilities, please check the readme in the gitlab repo: https://gitlab.com/UlrikHD/lemmy-match-thread-bot

Hello! I am a bot that can create live threads on lemmy.

I can be called by either tagging me in a comment or by replying to me.

Usage:

For all (optional) community@instance inputs, if none given, will assume the community the message is sent from.

-football community@instance(optional {home team} - {away team} - Sets up a game in the queue for live-thread creation. Thread is created ~16.0 min before kick-off. Defaults to [email protected] if no community is given.

-remove {-sport} {community@instance}(optional) {home team} - {away team} - Removes a game queued for live-thread creation. Only available for requester, mods and admins.

-queue {-sport} {community@instance}(optional) - Lists the current live threads queued for posting.

-mod_action {command} {input} - Various mod actions to set rules for the bot.

admin_action {command} {input}

-message {message} - Sends a message to bot maintainer

Mod commands:

rules {community@instance}(optional) - Shows the rules applied to the community.

blacklist {community@instance}(optional) - Will no longer interact with community.

remove_blacklist {community@instance}(optional) - Will interact with the community again.

whitelist {community@instance}(optional) - Opens up the bot to post in the community.

remove_whitelist {community@instance}(optional) - Removes the community from the whitelist.

trust {username@instance} {community@instance}(optional) - Removes rate limit restrictions for the user, all mods are trusted users for their communities.

untrust {username@instance} {community@instance}(optional) - Removes the trusted status for the user, can not apply to mods in their communities.

ban {username@instance} {community@instance}(optional) - The user can no longer interact with the bot in the given community.

unban {username@instance} {community@instance}(optional) - The user is removed from the ban list for the given community.

Admin commands:

Same as mod commands, however admins can also add commands to their entire instance by using the format {-@instance}. Do note that community specific commands overrule instance-wide commands.
