Molly uses slash commands but also supports some text commands.
Default prefix for text commands is molly and is changeable in /settings server.
Use /help for an overview.
These commands are only available if you host yourself and provide bot admin level functionality.
They are restricted as follows:
• They can only be used by users set in DEV_IDS.
• They are not registered globally and only show up in the servers set in DEV_GUILDS.
• They are not listed in /help.
The following commands are available:
Manually triggers the tracking consolidation. This runs daily at 00:00 UTC, so you probably won't need this.
Manages global event reductions. If there ever will be reduced cooldowns in an event, this is the command to use.
Allows you to send a custom message via Molly to a channel.
Allows reloading of cogs and modules on the fly.
Note that you should always restart the bot when there is a breaking change, no matter what.
It's not possible to reload the following files:
• Cogs with slash command definitions. Due to Discord restrictions, you need to restart the whole thing if you change slash commands.
• The file bot.py as this is the main file that is running.
• The file tasks.py. I had mixed results with this, just restart instead.
To reload files in subfolders, use folder.file (e.g. resources.settings). Cogs don't need that, the filename is enough (e.g. prune).
Lists all servers Molly is in by name.
Shuts down the bot. Note that if the bot is registered as a systemctl or systemd service, it will automatically restart.
