A simple Discord Bot that uses the free CryptoCompare API to display cryptocurrency prices

Overview

What is this?

This is a simple Discord Bot coded in Python that uses the free CryptoCompare API to display cryptocurrency prices Discord Crypto Bot

Download

Use git to clone the repository or just download it as a ZIP

git clone https://github.com/kevintr303/Discord_Crypto_Bot

Installation

The only external Python libraries that are needed are:

pip3 install discord.py
pip3 install cryptocompare

Next, create your bot on Discord. Afterwards, you need to set the environment variables.

  • Set "CRYPTOCOMPARE_API_KEY" to your CryptoCompare api key which you can get here for free (100k calls monthly, 250k cap).
  • Next, set "TOKEN" to your Discord Bot's token.

Usage

In the script, there are some simple settings you can change:

# Settings:
base_command = "$cb"
bot_channel = "crypto_tracker"
# End of settings--

The base_command variable is the command people will use for the bot, and bot_channel is the name of the channel where the bot works. The main command of the bot: $cb will show all the current commands that exist. For ease I will also list the commands here: (make sure to have exact capitalization and formatting)

  1. $cb lists information and commands
  2. $cb [coin] [currency] Usage: $cb BTC USD Shows current price of a coin
  3. $cb history [coin] [currency] [date] Usage: $cb history BTC USD 2021,6,20 Shows historical price of a coin
  4. $cb coins Links to the CryptoCompare website that shows all coin types

Why did I make this?

Well, mostly for fun and as a learning experience. I wanted to create something that might be useful and thought, "hey, bitcoin's pretty popular right now. I should make a discord bot that tells you the current price," And so I did. This also marks my very first repository on GitHub(and first Discord bot). At the time of writing this, I have been learning Python for about 4-5 months now, so the code isn't the greatest.

What did I learn?

From this, I learned about environment variables and how to use them, how to create discord bots, github repositories and git, and event handling using Python decorators. That's a win if you ask me, to future projects we go! (Although I might revisit this in the future to improve on my code!)
