Simple and Secure Discord File Server

Discord.py File Server v1.0

The Discord.py File Server is a secure alternative to FTP or SMB file shares by running within the Discord API and transferring files as private direct messages instead of plaintext or ciphertext between 2 systems. Files are sent to Users instead of IPs thus adding another layer of anonymity and users can view file contents from any of their devices. Access Control and Management is as simple as adding or removing users from the server as well.

COMING SOON: Discord User file permissions?

Usage

To start the bot enter the directory and type python3 bot.py or ./bot.py if your have python3 in your /usr/bin

Getting Started

Run pip3 install -r requirements.txt to install necessary libraries and create a new server in Discord, preferrably something such as "Discord File Server". Now go to the Discord Applications Page to create a new application and click "New Application" and name it something like "Discord File Server". Once created go to "Bot" in the left menu and click "Add Bot" and click "Copy" to get your Bot's private token. Now input this into the "TOKEN=" variable in bot.py. Lastly, add your bot to the server with "https://discordapp.com/api/oauth2/authorize?scope=bot&client_id=CLIENT_ID_NUMBER", run the bot.py file, and voila!

If you're getting random errors such as a TypeError enter sudo python3 -m pip install -U discord.py to update the Discord.py library (Discord recently pushed out a new update that changes the overwrites object).
