Settings
IF YOU ARE NOT USING .JSONC
MAKE SURE YOU REMOVE ANY //
COMMENTS IN THIS DOCUMENTATION.
- Settings are supported in
.JSON
,.JSONC
(JSON with comment support;// /* */
), and.YAML
. - Settings are case sensitive (follow the same capitalization as this documentation).
- If using JSON/JSONC, do not leave trailing commas, this will throw errors (Commas after the last item in a section/group).
- The bot will look for a file named
settings
that matches.json
/.jsonc
/.yaml
, this can be overrode by passing an argument with the executable. Example in Windows CMD:discord-downloader-go.exe otherSettings
will look forotherSettings.json
/otherSettings.jsonc
/otherSettings.yaml
.
If you have a config.ini
from Seklfreak's discord-image-downloader-go, when launching with no settings file present, the bot will import settings from discord-image-downloader-go if it's in the same folder as discord-downloader-go.
If you are using .json
/.jsonc
, the bot will convert to YAML and store in cache/settings.yaml
upon launch, for help with conversion if you wish to use YAML. Alternatively, if you are using .yaml
, the bot will convert to JSON and store in cache/settings.json
upon launch, for help with conversion if you wish to use JSON.
Almost all settings are optional. If you remove or omit lines from your settings, they will just assume default values.
Most settings that pertain to sources (channels, servers, etc) will have 2 variants; 1 global default setting (which you can modify in the main section, otherwise default values will be used) and 1 source-specific setting that you can use to selectively override the global default setting.
Example:
The bot will do emoji reactions when downloads succeed on channels "a" and "c" but NOT on channel "b".
