This bot allows you to track and update your immersion progress on Anilist straight from your own discord server. Just click on a reaction under the message!

Requirements

• Python 3.8+

• Pycord (maintained fork of discord.py)

• Discord bot account

• Anilist API access

  • create an API client on this page, set redirect url to https://anilist.co/api/v2/oauth/pin
  • run and follow instructions from api_setup.py to get your api access token, note that it will write to a file different from bot's own config

Preparations

• Download and unpack this repository
• Create a config.json file and paste the following inside

{
    "discord_token": "your discord bot token here",
    "access_token": "your anilist access token here",
    "refresh_token": "your anilist refresh token here",
    "username": "your anilist username here",
    "channel_id": "your discord channel id here",
    "youtube_playlists": {}
}

• Put in your discord bot token, Anilist's access and refresh tokens and Anilist username
• Run the bot, type !channel_id in the channel where you want your tracking information to be
• Put that id in your config, restart the bot

Available commands

• !r - resyncs with Anilist
• !channel_id - prints out current channel id
• to add a youtube playlist to track - just paste the url to a playlist (or to a video in a playlist) in the tracking channel (for now you'll have to !r for it to appear)
