This bot is made with nodejs, ffmpeg, youtube-dl and redis.
- The bot listens for any incoming Discord message and checks if the message's content starts with the
r/prefix. - Parses input:
r/pics new=>var subreddit = "pics", mode = "new". - Looks in the redis cache if a post was already requested from this subreddit. If not, request from the reddit api and store it in the cache.
- Loop through the reddit response until a post matches the filter.
- Store the current subreddit post index in the redis cache. (so the bot knows where to start looking for the next post)
- If video, use youtube-dl and ffmpeg to download and convert the video to mp4. If the video is larger than 8MB, compress the video using ffmpeg.
- Send the post in an embedded Discord message.
