Discord Bot: VoidHumor

Overview

A Discord bot built with Python using the discord.py library. This bot provides absurd, hilarious, dark humor quotes sourced from a local JSON file.

Recent Changes

  • 2025-10-08: Initial project setup with discord.py.
  • 2025-10-08: Migrated from prefix commands (!) to modern Slash Commands (/).
  • 2025-10-08: Implemented quote loading from quotes.json.

Setup

The bot requires the following in Replit's Secrets manager (the lock icon) to run:

Secret Key Value
DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN The token obtained from the Discord Developer Portal.

Ensure the Message Content Intent is enabled in the Discord Developer Portal.

Commands

The bot uses Slash Commands (commands starting with /) which are automatically registered upon startup.

  • /voidhumor - Retrieves a random, absurd, dark humor quote from the internal quote database.

(Note: The old !hello and !ping prefix commands were removed in favor of the new slash command structure.)

Architecture

  • bot.py: Main bot logic, event handlers, and the implementation for the /voidhumor slash command.
  • quotes.json: An external JSON Array containing all the dark humor quotes. The bot loads this file on startup.
  • Uses discord.py and the application command tree for modern Discord interaction.
  • Message content intent is enabled, although only required for future prefix commands or message scanning.
