mirandabohm/discord_steam_interface

A bot for the popular gaming platform Discord. The intention is to relay current program activity, including active window and other information (which is typically overlooked by Steam, another gaming platform), to a specified server.

A Steam-Interfacing Discord Bot built in Python

This project creates a bot intended to discover and display a Discord user's current activity. It first checks for an active session in Steam, a major gaming platform. If an active session is found, the name of the active game will be displayed as the bot's status. Additionally, the player's status on Discord will be updated to match their status on Steam, in accordance with the table below:

STEAM STATUS	STEAM STATE	DISCORD STATUS
'Offline'	0	'offline'
'Online'	1	'online'
'Busy'	2	'dnd'
'Away'	3	'idle'
'Snooze'	4	'idle'
'Looking to trade'	5	'online'
'Looking to play'	6	'online'

If no active Steam session is found, information about the user's currently active window will be returned instead.
