The Wikibot links the Discord to the wiki :)

Its source is at: https://git.jon-e.net/jonny/wiki-postbot, and pull requests are welcome (hassle Jonny to figure out how to allow account creation in their gitea instance)

Wikilinks

Messages with [[Wikilinks]] will be added to the wiki. The bot understands an extended wikilink syntax intended to make archiving threads easier. All messages added by the bot will also be indexed in Discord Messages so they don't get lost!

  • [[Regular Wikilinks]] - Messages with (potentially multiple) regular wikilinks will be embedded into the relevant page in a section titled "Discord" in the order in which they were received.
  • [[Wikilinks#With Section]] - Adding a #-delimited section will embed the message in the relevant section, rather than under "Discord"

N-Back Wikilinks

Currently implemented as a parser, but grabbing multiple messages in a thread is not yet implemented.

  • Preceding Message - [[^LINK]]
  • Entire Preceding Thread - [[^*LINK]]
  • Ranges
    • Fully specified - [[^{n,m}LINK]] where n and m are the start and end of the range to be included, inclusive. eg. [[^{2,5}LINK]] would specify four messages: the 2nd one above the initiating message through the 5th, and n == 0 indicates the initiating message.
    • End specified - [[^{,m}LINK]] OR [[^{m}LINK]] - include the initiating message and the m messages above it.
    • Start specified - [[^{n,}LINK]] - include all preceding messages in the thread before the nth message


Commands

  • /debug on,off Turn debugging messages on or off (for everyone) - this will print things like the full text of the detected wikilinks as replies to
