satisfactory_discord_bot

bot in chatroom saying that trevor is online

Setup

You will first need a satisfactory server using systemd, as in the wiki, as well as a discord bot with channel write permisions, for example as following the first half of this guide.

Install dependencies:

python3 -m pip or apt install python3-pip

pip3 install venv

python3 -m venv env

./env/bin/activate

pip install -r requirements.txt

Use the commented-out lines to find the id numbers for the token of your discord bot application, as well as your discord server, channel, and role. Put these in a .env file in the same folder as main.py. For example:

DISCORD_TOKEN=[token here]
SERVER_ID=[serverid here]
CHANNEL_ID=[channelid here]
ROLE_ID=[roleid here]

To test the app's ability to turn logs into discord messages, execute this test script, it should post a message saying "Unknown user 439304572947329445"

python main.py "[2021.10.30-02.26.16:635][206]LogBeacon: Beacon Join FGServerBeaconClient STEAM:(STEAM)-439304572947329445"

You can now use the numbers that appear in these "unknown user" messages to populate the username_dict in the code.

Triggering the discord notifier with swatchdog

Install swatchdog on your server, more info here: https://www.tecmint.com/swatch-linux-log-file-watcher/.

Configure swatchdog to look for the Beacon Join event in the logs, and to run main.py when it does. Create a file with the following contents at /home/myuser/.swatchdogrc

watchfor /Beacon Join .*/
    exec command /home/myuser/satisfactory_discord_bot/env/bin/python /home/myuser/satisfactory_discord_bot/main.py "$0"

You can now manually start the log watcher with swatchdog -c /home/myuser/.swatchdogrc --daemon, but you may wish to have it begin at startup, along with your satisfactory server.

Set up swatch also with systemd (instructions copied from this nagios doc:):

Create a file at /etc/systemd/system/swatchdog.service with the following contents:

[Unit]
Description=Swatchdog Service
After=network-online.target

[Service]
Type=forking
Restart=on-failure
RestartSec=10
User=root
WorkingDirectory=/home/myuser/satisfactory_discord_bot
ExecStart=/usr/bin/swatchdog -c /home/myuser/.swatchdogrc --daemon

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
~

Refresh your systemd modules: systemctl daemon-reload

Enable it as a startup routine:

systemctl enable swatchdog.service

Start the service now:

systemctl start swatchdog.service
