"Just another Discord bot, this one sends random quotes :)" sums it up.

It sends a random quote every period you define.

There is also a command to get one as well.

You need to create an application.yaml file, with the following fields filled:

discord:
  bot-token: 
  webhook:
    id: 
    token: 
  channel-id: 
  app-id: 

Then place it inside a config folder.

Run gradle quarkusBuild, then copy the build/quarkus-app contents to the desired folder.

In dev, run gradle quarkusDev.

Otherwise, if it's already built, just run java -jar quarkus-run.jar.

Note: remember to have config/application.yaml in the folder you're running.

The bot has 2 possible sources it gets the quotes from: goodreads (default) and Pensador.

You can choose which one by specifying the source in the yaml. (goodreads or pensador)

To change how often it runs, specify in the yaml as cron-expr. ( uses quartz format by default)

By default is runs every 9, 12, 15, 18, 21 o'clock. 😳

As you may have noticed, this project uses Quarkus.

If you're new to Quarkus, I have written two guides to help you understand its dependency injection and configuration.
