This is a discord plugin that I've made just to practice myself over C++ and ofcourse since IRC is a dead meme at this point as well it was cool to have a nice VCMP server-discord communication system.
There is a
Read Me file that has instructions and explains the config settings. I'll put the Read Me here as well for quick look:
IMPORTANT NOTE: Its significantly better to load the Discord plugin first in the plugin list, even before squirrel plugin
* Place DDiscord.dll inside your plugins folder
* Place all DLLs in the dll zip file next to server.exe
* Place settings.json next to server.exe and configure as needed
* Enlist DDiscord in your server.cfg
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Plugin provided events:
- SQ_onDiscordConnect
- SQ_onDiscordServer
- SQ_onDiscordChannelMessage
- SQ_onDiscordQuit
- SQ_onDiscordDisconnect
* Plugin provided functions:
- Discord_SendMessage("Message")
- Discord_SendMesageToChannel(channel_id, "Message")
- Discord_SendMesageToChannelName("Channel-Name", "Message")
- Discord_SetStatus("New Status")
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Configure settings.json according to your needs, following is explanation for each setting:
- prefix :: The prefix to use for commands, ! means commands start with ! for example: !bot
- token :: This is your bot token
- status :: Sets the status of the bot. Which is the "Currently playing ..." message.
- specialNicks :: If a user has special symbols which VCMP does not support ingame on chat, should these users be allowed to send messages ingame?
- specialMessages :: If a user's message has symbols that VCMP chat does not support, should they be blocked?
- defaultMode :: Toggles defaultMessages, defaultCommands and whether squirrel events are triggered or not.
- defaultMessages :: This plugin has the following events handled inside:
-> onPlayerJoin
-> onPlayerPart
-> onPlayerDeath
-> onPlayerKill
-> onPlayerChat
if you want to manually handle these events with your own messages, you can set defaultMode to false and do it inside squirrel events.
- defaultCommands :: The plugin comes with a few built-in commands if defaultMode is ON:
-> !say - Sends a message from discord to server
-> !players - Displays the list of players ingame
- channels :: This is an array of channel IDs the plugin will load and send messages to when global messages are sent.
"channels" : [channel_id]
-> channel_id is the id of the channel to load, you can enable Developer Mode on discord, and then right click on channels to get their ID and palce them here.
- Multiple channels can be simply listed by a comma separation:
"channels" : [channel_1_id, channel_2_id]
# Note :: Its fair to just use 1 main channel to send messages to instead of multiple channels at multiple servers to avoid request flood.
This plugin is
not the best! I made this personally for myself for very basic tasks like just simply logging out basic player join/quits, chats and kill logs. It was never meant to be very advanced. However I will prefer this any day over the current methods people are using (mysql queries to simulate server messages back and forth, ew!)
This plugin can be as easy as just download, place, config json and you have most of the simple stuff already done and handled, but if you want, you can disable the in-built ones and just do them all yourself squirrel side, both ways can serve.
- Functions: Discord_SendMessage("message"); // Sends a message to all the channels listed in settings.json
Discord_SendMessageToChannel(channel_id, "message"); // Send message to the specific channel
Discord_SendMessageToChannelName("my-channel", "my message"); // Send message to all channels matching this name
Discord_SetStatus("Status"); // Set Bot's game status
- Events: SQ_onDiscordConnect(string jsonFormattedData)
SQ_onDiscordServer(string jsonFormattedData)
SQ_onDiscordChannelMessage(int serverID, int channelID, int userID, string userName, string message)
SQ_onMemberEdit(string jsonFormattedData, string emptyStringForCompatibility)
SQ_onDiscordQuit()
SQ_onDiscordDisconnect()
- A sample script that implements a custom SQ_onDiscordCommand function/eventfunction SQ_onDiscordChannelMessage(serverID, channelID, userID, userName, message) {
if(message.slice(0, 1) == "!") {
local noprefixMessage = message.slice(1, message.len());
local str = split(noprefixMessage, " ");
local command = str[0];
local msg = null;
if(str.len() > 1) {
msg = "";
for(local i = 1; i < str.len(); i++) {
msg += str[i];
if(i < str.len()-1)
msg += " ";
}
}
SQ_onDiscordCommand(serverID, channelID, userID, userName, command, msg);
}
}
function SQ_onDiscordCommand(serverID, channelID, userID, username, cmd, msg) {
if(cmd == "t")
Discord_SendMessageToChannel(channelID, "test works");
}

@Kirollos - I learned how to handle squirrel vm and stacks from his RCON plugin
-
@. (SLC) - Ofcourse this bad boy has to be everywhere, no surprise at all
-
@Luckshya - Helped me in some API issues and used his CMake files to easily generate binaries for Linux
You first have to get your bot connected to your server, you can google search and see how that is done afterwards you take the bot token and place it inside the settings.conf file, run the server and the bot should be getting online.
On linux
Plugin error >> dlopen() 'plugins/DDiscord64.so' failed: plugins/DDiscord64.so: only ET_DYN and ET_EXEC can be loaded

a simple guide for making the token and it show how to create a bot to run this plugin - https://github.com/Chikachi/DiscordIntegration/wiki/How-to-get-a-token-and-channel-ID-for-Discord
Doom_Kill3R, excellent work. :)
Would be great if it can output a message to Discord that the bot disconnected.
Hi DarkRazor, I'm working on a better plugin over sleepy-discord library (Because before I had issues getting it to compile but now those are fixed) so I'll probably get that plugin to have more events and functionalities, gotta wait abit though ;)

Thanks man, you're the best! :)
- Update
- Switched to Sleepy-Discord API
- Bot status can now be set
- Configuration file is now more neatly categorized. New format for enlisting channel ids.
Binaries updated on first post, new sample script also updated.
Special thanks to
@Luckshya for a great helping hand, first post credits for more information.
@Doom_Kill3R , what's the OpenSLL for?
It is used for network communication
Can you make this For 32bit servers too ?

Stop using ancient hardware.
- Update
- Fixed server crash on sending invalid formatted messages
- Added Discord_SendMessageToChannelName function to send a message to all the server channels with the specified name the bot is connected to
Updated binaries download on first post.
I gotta say, great work dude!
Guess what, I need the 32 bit version for a VPS my friend has :/

*Mic drop*
Do you think it would be possible for them to also make 32bit versions?

This plugin only works for x64, make sure you are not running it on x32/x86

mine is x64
nvm im retarded
i placed libcurl.dll, LIBEAY32.dll, SSLEAY32.dll, SSLEAY32.dll and settings.json into the root and works now

The bot seems to lag, not only the bot itself but the server, after frequent messages sending back and forth. Any clue? This error triggers when I launch the server terminal using a batch file (which opens up if the server terminal closes)
This is an API related thing after alot of messages are sent, could either be discord sided or the library itself however a workaround as told by Luckshya on discord is to send multiple messages concatenated via \n in intervals rather than individually to reduce the chances of this happening.
@DizzasTeR, this plugin can work in Linux CentOS?
Plugin error >> dlopen() 'plugins/libDDiscord64.so' failed: libssl.so.1.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Failed to load plugin: libDDiscord64
Used:
apt-get install libssl-dev
Should work, it seems to not be able to find libssl 1.1, check if you have a newer/older version and try to get the 1.1 version if possible then try again
Released v1.1
- Squirrel events are not triggered now if default messages are enabled
- Bot status is disabled since it seems to cause issues
- Messages use Async option
Empty settings.json file attached
(Thanks Xmair) with the post.
Binaries download link in first post.
I would still recommend using Luckshya's plugin if you are going to do some serious work with the discord bot, but if you just want a normal casual bot, that logs out player join/quits/chats, then yeah this can do the job.
Released v2.0
Both x64 and x86 builds are available for download at:
https://github.com/DizzasTeR/discord-vcmp-client/releases/tag/v2.0
Linux build will eventually get added but it should be fairly easy to build the plugin on linux
Changes:
- Switched to DPP library (Major, sleepy-discord has gotten worse and worse in terms of building, linking and as an effective library)
- Fixed crashes
- Remove extraneous code
- Miscellaneous improvements
- SQ_onDiscordChannel is now removed
- SQ_onMemberEdit has a changed signature (string jsonFormattedData, string justHereForCompatability)
- Discord_SendMessageToChannelName was missing, added
Again, the purpose of this plugin is just to have echo like we used to in IRC days, I can add more events or simple functions if very severely requested but that is about it.
Please note that now you have to copy and paste DLLs into your server directory on windows when using this plugin, they are provided at GitHub release page
Works perfect on Windows, wanted to compile the Plugin on Linux but I get this error back:

Would be nice if you can compile it for Linux or help with the Problem?

Have you cloned the plugin repository
recursively? Because it has DPP as a submodule added to it, so cmake will build DPP for you hence you shouldn't be getting the link error. If you still cannot figure it out you could also get pre-build dpp linux binaries from here (https://github.com/brainboxdotcc/DPP/releases) and look into that.
If you still cannot figure it out, you'll have to wait for weekend and hopefully I can look into it or provide you with linux binaries
