Noi ddcde10e09 First commit for C# rewrite 
All existing VB code was 'translated' to C# as closely as possible, with
minor changes and additional notes. Currently untested and likely
broken.
Further commits will go toward making overall improvements until this
version replaces the currently existing code.

Recognize birthdays in your Discord community!

Birthday Bot is a simple, single-purpose bot. It will set a role on your users for the duration of their birthdays and, if desired, can announce a message in a channel of your choosing. Server owners can further specify a default time zone, with individual users also setting their own to ensure everyone's birthdays are recognized precisely on time.

Getting started

  • Invite the bot. Be mindful that it requires role setting permissions.
  • Create a dedicated birthday role to be used only by the bot. Ensure the new role is placed beneath the bot's own role.
    • Do not use an existing role! This bot assumes exclusive control over it. Users that have the role but are not having a birthday will be removed from it!
  • Instruct the bot to use the role: bb.config role (role name)

Other tips

  • Set the birthday announcement channel: bb.config channel (channel)
  • Set a default time zone: bb.config zone (time zone)
    • Use the command bb.help-tzdata for information on how to specify time zones.
  • Customize the announcement message: See bb.help-message for more information.

Note

Birthday information is not shared between servers. This is by design, as some people prefer to share their birthdays with select groups of people but keep it obscured from other communities.
