Architecture

To facilitate quick and easy deployment, the Discord bot has been split into 2 main parts.

Runtime

• Makes persistent connection to Discord and database.
• Arbitrary JavaScript logic can be deployed to the runtime without restarting the server.
• Handles events from Discord (and other event sources) but delegate its behavior to the logic.
• Rarely restarted.

Logic

• Contains most of the code.
• Deployed to the runtime when changed.
• Gets called by the runtime when there are events from Discord (and other event sources).
• Deployed when hitting save.
• Written in TypeScript.
