Sponsors

Diabot is a public Discord bot. This means that anyone can invite the bot to their server. Hosting a public bot isn't free. Diabot requires a machine to run on, and a database. Both of these things cost money. While there is a budget to ensure Diabot can continue running without any financial support from others, we do appreciate contributions. Financial contributions are used to pay for hosting costs, and (when the budget allows this) run a separate test version of Diabot, so we can better test it. When money is left over after all hosting fees are paid, this money will be saved for when contributions can't fully support the project.

If you wish to help pay for diabot hosting and development, you can Become a supporter on OpenCollective or sponsor cascer1 on GitHub.

Any support received will be used to pay for the hosting and improvement of Diabot. This is not a for-profit project.

Running Diabot

As Java application

Development for Diabot is aimed at a Java 11 environment. Diabot may not function correctly when using other version of java.

If you have Gradle installed, you can run the following two commands to quickly start Diabot:

gradle stage
java -jar build/libs/diabot.jar

For detailed instructions, see Running Diabot

As Docker container

Diabot releases are automatically published to the GitHub Container Registry. So, you can simply launch a new container to get up and running quickly:

docker run -e DIABOTTOKEN='token' ghcr.io/reddit-diabetes/diabot:latest

For detailed instructions and information about other environment variables, see Running Diabot
