We are thrilled to announce the release of version v2.0.0 of BryanBot!
This release is complete rewrite of the bot, with a new codebase and features. This release is the result of months of hard work from the development team and we are excited to share it with you.

🚀 New Features​

  1. New Logging System
    • Added a new logging system with new chalk based colors system.
  2. Folder-based addons
    • Addons can now be folder-based instead of a single file.
    • For it to work, the folder must contain an index.js file.
  3. Added utility for creating modals
    • You can now easily create modals using the new setupModal utility.
    • It is based on setupComponents and supports variables.
  4. Created findTextChannel and findVoiceChannel methods
    • These methods allow you to find a text or voice channel by name.
    • You can use these by directly calling them or using text or voice as a type in findChannel.
  5. Added new methods to include more developer info in the addon object
    • setDeveloper - Developer name (required)
    • setDiscord - Discord support server invite url (optional)
    • setDocs - Documentation link (optional)
    • setAdditional - Additional info (optional)
  6. Eval command
    • Added an eval command for easier debugging.

💡 Improvements​

  1. Reworked all existing commands.
  2. Added more error handling for better both user and developer experience.
  3. Created createVariable method for easier variable creation.

🐛 Bug Fixes​

  1. Fixed some broken JSDoc comments with wrong types.
  2. Fixed some validators not working as expected.

⚠️ Breaking Changes​

This is complete rewrite of the bot. Neither old addons nor old bod config files will work with this release.
You will need to update your addons and bot config files to work with this release.
Some addons may have the same config files as before, but you will need to verify that with their developer(s).

📥 How to Update​

Since this is a major release, you will need to replace the old bot with the new one.
Old addons will not work with this release, so you will need to update them as well.
