DisDB

A package to use Discord as a (horrible) database

Features:

• A simple key value database
• Keys with TTL stored as Guild Events
• Values stored in the cover image of events
• Entirely hosted in Discord
• Horrible performance
• Dirt poor security
• Awful reliability

Example:

import { StorageClient } from 'disdb';

let client = new StorageClient({
    logLevel: "INFO",
    discord: {
        // The ID of your storage server here
        storageServer: "id",
        bots: {
            // The bot token for your master
            // This bot is used for in-Discord control and setup
            master: "token",
            slaves: [
                // The bot tokens for your slaves
                // At least one slave is required, but more will improve performance
                "token",
                "token",
            ]
        }
    }
});

// Deletes all channels in the storage server and creates the correct layout for the database
// Use this with caution, it should only be used once to create the database, any further use
// will wipe the database.
await client.runServerSetup();

// Connect all clients to Discord and waits until they're ready
await client.connect();

await client.set("key", "value");

await client.get("key"); // returns "value"

await client.exists("test"); // returns true

await client.delete("test");

await client.exists("test"); // returns false

But why?

Because it's fun!
It's also interesting to see what you can do with Discord and how I can completely misuse it and have fun with it. You should probably never use this in an actual project, but I won't stop you.

it's genius because when discord is down, so is your bot, so you only have access to the data when you need it :4head:
