A General Purpose Discord Bot

Overview

This Discord bot is built using Discord.js and comes with some features I found useful at the time.

Features

1. Top Reacted Message

The /showtopreactions command fetchs and display the message with the highest count of any single reaction in the current channel. Limited implementation so far due to rate limits of discord API, requires cleanup.

2. Channel Replacement

With the /postArchivedEmbed command, messages from the current channel can be posted in another channel for the purpose of preserving channel content before deletion. It uses the into a readable and shareable format. It uses DiscordChatExporter to create a archived copy of channel in json format, which it uses to post archived messages. TODO: Integrate DiscordChatExporter neatly and automate the process even further.
