relay

A service that runs as a discord bot and proxies web requests to it.

Install

• Create a new app at https://discordapp.com/developers/applications, and in the app, create a bot user.
• Get the client ID from the app settings page and then visit this page to connect the bot:
  • https://discordapp.com/api/oauth2/authorize?client_id=$CLIENT_ID&scope=bot&permissions=51264
• Start the app
• Send any json to /hook
  • For example: curl -svL -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"test":"bar","hi":"xyz"}' http://localhost:8080/hook
  • It'll show up in your discord.
  • 

Expanding

Right now, all of the json types are defined in lib/proxy.go. If your json isn't a simple map[string]string, you can create a new type and add it to the file. You can see existing types in the docs.

Please add a test for each new type you add, so we don't break in the future.
