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 (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. 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)
  • PluralKit.Bot.Token: the Discord bot token to connect with
