Bot Types and Setup

Active Bots

What I call active bots are the ones that respond to commands. This is what some of you are accustomed to with the MyMadden groupme bot. typing a command like "!web" will prompt the bot to post the link to the league's homepage. These bots can respond in any channel of your Discord server as long as they have the proper permissions. 

Setup

1. Click this limk to add the bot to your Discord server.
It opens a tab so you can add it to the server of your choice
2. You may have to wait a moment and tell you aren't a bot
3. Create a role called "mm_admin" and assign it to yourself and anyone you wish to be able to edit bot settings.
4. In your Discord server, set it up to work with your league. Change "test" to your league abbreviation in the following commands.
   1. !mmsetup test
   2. /setup league:test
(optional):  Test it!
1. !web
2. /web

This is the way you probably want to set up alerts instead of using the Passive Bots below.

Commands

• /alerts view
  • Shows the current setup alerts
• /alerts new
  • Creates a new alert using the parameters you give it
• /alerts edit
  • Edits an existing alert using the parameters you give it
• /alerts delete
  • Deletes an existing alert using the id you give it

Passive Bots

What I call passive bots are ones that do not respond to commands but will post updates based on events that occur in the league. These events include game updates, roster moves, and trades that are proposed through MyMadden. Having a Discord channel for each type of event.

Setup

1. Starting in Discord, click the gear icon on the channel you wish to add the bot to.
