A Discord bot that renders Typst code.
Built with poise so it has all the goodies like edit tracking, typing status, and automatic help generation.
The bot uses two binaries:
bot: connects to Discord and processes messagesworker: receives requests, interacts with Typst, responds
bot will automatically spawn worker, so you only need to run bot.
To set up the working environment, create a directory with the following items:
fonts: Copied from the repo. Make sure you have Git LFS set up so the fonts are downloaded properly.worker: The worker binary, copied/hardlinked from the target directory after building.bot: The bot binary, copied/hardlinked from the target directory after building. (This doesn't need to be in this directory, but having everything in one place simplifies things.)
To run, CD into this directory, set DISCORD_TOKEN to your bot token, and run the bot binary (not the worker binary that's also in the directory).
To allow use of packages, set CACHE_DIRECTORY to a directory to download and read packages from.
AGPL. Use ?source to get a link to the source from deployments of the bot.
