BeefBot 2.1.0

BeefBot 2.1.0 has the following changes:

1. The ability to listen for beef ladder changes via a configurable socket (See BeefApiConfig.json.example)
   To start receiving ladder updated messages, just connect to the socket and start listening (no need to send anything).
   The socket sends messages in the following protocol:
   <Length><Message>
   Where Length is a 4 byte integer in Big-Endian byte order and Message is a UTF-8 encoded JSON string that is [Length] bytes long.

For example:

00, 00, 00, 20, 7B, 20, 22, 4D, 65, 73, 73, 61, 67, 65, 22, 3A, 20, 22, 4F, 6E, 4C, 61, 64, 64, 65, 72, 43, 68, 61, 6E, 67, 65, 64, 22, 20, 7D
|--------------| |----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
 4 byte Length                                              32 bytes of a UTF8 encoded message String
(32 in this case)

Currently the only message you will receive is the following:

{
    "Message": "OnLadderChanged" 
}

2. The Google Slides API and related configuration have been removed since it is now obsolete

BeefBot 2.0.0

This version has 3 major updates:

1. Updated to .net 6
2. Stores the latest beef ladder locally instead of reading it from the google slide first
3. Allows clients to retrieve the current ladder via a rest call at /beef-ladder

The ladder is returned as a JSON structure in the following form:

{
  "beefLadder": [
    {
      "rank": 1,
      "beefName": "Haffey",
      "race": "Terran",
      "mmr": "5564"
    },
    {
      "rank": 2,
      "beefName": "Rocker",
      "race": "Protoss",
      "mmr": "5554"
    },
    etc..
  ]
}

BeefBot 1.9.1

BeefBot 1.9.1 is a minor release that improves the default go-live message when a stream goes live. It will now show the Stream Title and the game being played as well as just the stream link.

BeefBot 1.9.0

BeefBot 1.9.0 adds the ability to monitor Twitch channels and message a configured channel with a go live message when they go online.

In order to use this functionality you need to create a Twitch Application on dev.twitch.tv in order to get a Client ID and Client Secret. You can then configure BeefBot in config.json with these credentials so that it can use the Twitch API:
"TwitchConfig": {
"Version": 1,
"MsPerPoll": 60000,
"GoLiveChannel": "stream-links",
"ClientId": "...",
"ClientSecret": "..."
}
You can set "TwitchConfig" to null if you do not want to support this feature.

Once configured, streams can be added/deleted/listed with the following commands:
!beef monitor https://www.twitch.tv/kirby561
!beef unmonitor https://www.twitch.tv/kirby561
!beef listMonitoredStreams

BeefBot 1.8.0

BeefBot 1.8.0 adds the ability to specify "Dynamic Channels".
A Dynamic Channel is a channel in a discord that should be copied/deleted in order to maintain exactly 1 empty channel of that name. This can be used to make sure there is always another "2v2 Teams" channel to join for example but when a team is done, remove the channel so there is always exactly 1 empty of that channel to join. This keeps the Discord cleaner by not having duplicate channels just to try to make sure there are enough of each type to join.

Dynamic Channels can be configured in the config.json file by simply listing the channel names that should have this behavior:
"DynamicChannels": [ "2v2 Teams", "3v3 Teams", "4v4 Teams" ],

Note that the bot needs permissions to Manage these channels or it will throw an error when it tries.
