This is the first bot I've built, for Slack or otherwise, and my first main Javascript project.
I built it for Hex Digital as a bit of humour during the 3pm crawl when our thirst desperately needs quenching. Turns out it's actually quite fun to use!
- Announce to your team that you're going to make a round of teas, coffees and other
- Take tea, coffee or other orders from everyone in the channel when a round is active
- When a round finishes, announce all the orders and provide totals of each drink for ease of use
- Ask politely if someone else will make tea/coffee/other
- Start a random round, where the person that will make the tea is picked randomly from everyone that wants one
- Store statistics each time you make drinks or have them made for you
- Ask the bot how many you've made for others, and how many you've drank from others
- Display a teaderboard to see rankings for everyone in the team, Made and Received
- Manually add or remove drinks 'Made' and 'Drank' from users
- Display a help menu with all the necessary commands, and also interactive buttons to perform them
I am happily accepting pull requests to the project. Please ensure coding standards match that of the existing code and that the pull requests thoroughly document the functionality proposed/problem to solve and how you've chosen to do it.
