As the title says, I’m trying to create my own discord bot that takes channel comments and posts them on lemmy but I’m woefully underprepared. I definitely just need some more baseline info because as always I’m already in much deeper than I should be. Thanks for any help!
I’ve already setup a bot (on the same server as lemmy, exactly how it’s described in the linked doc) and can successfully ping it from my server. I used this to set it up which uses Lua and I’m unsure if that will be an issue. I can setup node.js if need be.
I also installed the lemmy-js-client
. I guess I have a few questions but really I’ll take any help I can get :)

file?Additionally I was trying to use pipedream for assistance. I can optionally run code right on the site as shown in the picture below but also I can use any API account or make a POST request which are 2nd and 3rd photos below respectively. I’m taking a stab at the http POST workflow in between typing this.

Ah fuck I didn’t mean to post this from my bot account but here we are.
I’m thinking this website here will actually be better for noobs like me but will also help teach me more about what’s happening. https://autocode.com/guides/how-to-build-a-discord-bot/
