Quotes

Stores and displays quotes.

Description

This is the original reason that DBot was created, stores and displays quotes.

Configuration

rmLimit: 10

Amount of quotes which can be removed before admin approval is required.

Commands

~q [category]

Display a random quote from a given category.

~qadd [category] = [quote]

Add a new quote to the database.

~qstats

Show a list of the biggest quote categories.

~qsearch [category] = [needle]

Search a category for quotes including the given text.

~rmlast [category]

Remove the last quote added to a given category.

~rmstatus

Show how many quotes are currently in the removal cache, and whether they will be randomly removed.

~rm [category] = [quote]

Remove a given quote from the given category.

~qcount [category]

Show the number of quotes stored in the given category, or if called without a category it will show the total number of quotes in the database.

~rq

Show a random quote from the database.

~link [category]

Show a link to the page on the web interface which shows this category’s quotes.

Admin-only Commands

~rmconfirm

Confirm that the quotes currently in the removal cache are okay to be removed, and permanently delete them.

~rmdeny

Re-instate the quotes that are currently in the removal cache back into the main quote database.

API

getQuote(event, category)

Returns a random quote from the given category.

Removal Spam Protection

When quotes are removed using either the ~rm or ~rmlast commands, the quotes are removed from the main database, but are stored in a removal cache which is cleared out ten minutes from the last time a quote was removed from the database. If the number of quotes removed from the database reaches a certain limit (as per rmLimit in config, default 10) then the counter is removed and the cache will not be deleted automatically. In such a case, a DBot admin needs to either run the ~rmconfim command to have the removal cache cleared, or ~rmdeny to re-instate all of the quotes in the removal cache back into the main quote database. This is to stop mass removal from the database without limiting the user interface.
