JS
Run JavaScript.
Description
This module provides two commands which allow the execution of Javascript code from the bot.
Commands
~js [code]
For regular users, there is the ~js command, which is completely sandboxed, but can still be used for calculation and the like.
> ~js Array(16).join('wat'-1) + " Batman!";
'NaNNaNNaNNaNNaNNaNNaNNaNNaNNaNNaNNaNNaNNaNNaN Batman!'This feature is fairly safe as the user doesn’t have access to anything dangerous, and is safe from infinite loops or locking DBot up because the code which is run is killed if it does not finish within a short amount of time.
~ajs [code]
For administrators, the incredibly useful ~ajs command is also available. The input for this command is simply ‘eval’-ed and therefore has full access to DBot’s memory. Of course, this is incredibly unsafe, but I find it rather fun; remember to only give extremely trusted friends administrator access to your DBot instance, as there’s nothing to stop them wiping the database or probably even your hard drive - if you’re worried about that kind of thing, do not load this module.
However, it’s useful for many things, such as administrative activity for which there isn’t a command in the admin module. For example, you could hot-add a new administrator like this:
> ~ajs dbot.admin.push('batman');
2You can also use it for debugging, or even adding new commands while DBot is running.
