Steam Success Anniversary Bot

A bot to retrieve my Steam's success and celebrate their completion anniversaries on Discord!

Usage

With Github Actions

Steam API setup

You can fork this repository and add your STEAM_API_KEY variable in the settings/secrets/actions section (be careful to never expose your STEAM_API_KEY publicly).
You can get one here. You will also need to set your STEAM_USER_ID ; you can get it on your profile, in the URL.

Timezone setup

If you want to use a custom timezone, you can define your TZ variable in the settings/variables/actions section. By default, it will be Europe/Paris, as defined in the source code.

Discord setup

To send custom messages to celebrate your anniversaries on Discord, you will need to create a bot.

Visit https://discord.com/developers/applications and create a new application.
Go to the Bot section and add your new bot to your Discord server!
Then, you will need to allow it to Send Messages and get your token.
Add it as a new variable DISCORD_TOKEN to your repository in the settings/secrets/actions section (this token should never be exposed publicly too).

Finally, add the variable DISCORD_CHANNEL_ID in the same section to choose where you want to send your messages.
To get the ID of a Discord channel, you need to enable the Developer Mode in User Settings > Advanced.

You can also update the message sent to your Discord channel in the steam_success_anniversary_bot.rb file (it will require to commit the change).

Locally

• Install Ruby 3.3.4 (should also work with most of Ruby >= 2.7 versions, but I didn't try them myself. If you want to try another version, update the .ruby-version file, as well as the Gemfile).
• Add a .env file following the format given in .env.example.
• Install dependencies with bundle install thanks to bundler.
• Run ruby steam_success_anniversary_bot.rb!
