# Skynet Discord Bot
This bots core purpose is to give members roles based on their status on <ulwolves.ie>.
It uses an api key provided by wolves to get member lists.
Users are able to link their wolves account to the bot and that works across discord servers.
For example is a user links on the CompSoc Discord then they will also get their roles (automagically) on Games Dev if they are a member there.
## Getting the Skynet Discord bot
1. Email ``keith@assurememberships.com`` from committee email and say ye want an api key for ``193.1.99.74``
2. Create a role for current members (maybe call it ``current-member`` ?)
3. (Optional) create a role for all past and current members (ye can use the existing ``member`` role for this, )
4. Invite the bot https://discord.com/api/oauth2/authorize?client_id=1145761669256069270&permissions=139855185984&scope=bot
5. Make sure the bot role ``@skynet`` is above these two roles (so it can manage them)
6. Make sure that you have a role that gives ye administrator powers
7. Use the command ``/add`` and insert the api key, role current and role all (desktop recommended)
The reason for both roles is ye have one for active members while the second is for all current and past members.
## Using the bot
This is for the user side of things
### User is an active member on wolves
#### If they have never used the bot before or need to change their email:
* ``/link`` and enter their email that is in the Contact Email here: <https://ulwolves.ie/memberships/profile>
* An email will be sent to them that they need to verify
* Once verified they will be given both roles
#### If they have previously used the bot and are not yet on the discord server:
* Once they join the server they will be given the roles
#### If they have previously used the bot and are already on the discord server:
* They will be given both roles within an hour
### User is not an active member on wolves
#### If they have both roles:
The current-member role will be removed from them
