Authentication Bot
An authentication bot that verifies Discord users using the university email address of students.
When a user joins, they are promted to enter their student ID, bot then finds the email of the student using the student ID and emails them a unique code, when the user enters the code they get access to the Discord server.
For security reasons the actual process of getting university emails from a student ID is not part of this public repository, but it can be easily added in, or read in with a "students.json", where, "students.json" is structured as such:
{
"101160":{
"First Name": "John",
"Last Name": "Doe",
"Email": "john@uni.com"
},
"101149":{
"First Name": "Doe",
"Last Name": "John",
"Email": "doe@uni.com"
}
}Instructions to use the Bot
Create a role called "Student" and setup the permissions such that you need this role to interact on the Discord server.
Install the requirements using: pip install -r requirements.txt
Create a "students.json" with the data retrieved from your course webpage.
