# PluralKit
PluralKit is a Discord bot meant for plural communities. It has features like message proxying through webhooks, switch tracking, system and member profiles, and more.

**Do you just want to add PluralKit to your server? If so, you don't need any of this. Use the bot's invite link: https://discordapp.com/oauth2/authorize?client_id=466378653216014359&scope=bot&permissions=536995904**

PluralKit has a Discord server for support, feedback, and discussion: https://discord.gg/PczBt78 

# Requirements
Running the bot requires [.NET Core](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download) (v2.2) and a PostgreSQL database.

# Configuration
Configuring the bot is done through a JSON configuration file. An example of the configuration format can be seen in [`pluralkit.conf.example`](https://github.com/xSke/PluralKit/blob/master/pluralkit.conf.example).
The configuration file needs to be placed in the bot's working directory (usually the repository root) and must be called `pluralkit.conf`.

The configuration file is in JSON format (albeit with a `.conf` extension), and the following keys (using `.` to indicate a nested object level) are available:

The following keys are available:
* `PluralKit.Database`: the URI of the database to connect to (in [ADO.NET Npgsql format](https://www.connectionstrings.com/npgsql/))
* `PluralKit.Bot.Token`: the Discord bot token to connect with
