BeutelBotActivities

A tiny Flask application that supplies dynamic status text for my discord bot: BeutelBot by serving it on https://activity.kaenguruu.dev/status.

Please note that this code is written to "just work". No effort was made to make this more modular than it had to be and is therefore not designed to be adopted for other users.

Overview

• Flask serves a single endpoint: /status
• Every 5 minutes a background thread
  • reloads all static status snippets from VALUE
  • executes any Python scripts in dynamic-updaters/ (used to generate dynamic snippets in dynamic/ that require calculations or API calls)
  • reads any one‑line files in dynamic/
  • randomly picks one snippet as the current status

Project Structure

BeutelBotActivities/
├─ main.py               # The Flask app                 
├─ dynamic-updaters/     # Python scripts that add/remove snippets
│   └─ example.py        # CWD is the same as main.py; any packages must be inside same venv as `main.py`
├─ dynamic/              # One‑line files containing a single status
|   └─ EXAMPLE           # Dynamic files should be named according to the dynamic-updaters/ directory
└─ VALUE                 # Plain‑text file: one status per line
