2.5.0

Thanks to our testers and community for the continued support!

Features

Command Trigger System

• Added the command trigger system. This replaces the old way of running commands. All your commands have been automatically converted to use the new system
• • Commands now run from "triggers". A trigger can currently be a message, welcome event, or follow. More will come soon!
• • Some triggers have constraints which determine if a trigger can run.
• Added 3 triggers
• • Chatmessage: Run when a specific word is at the beginning of a message (current behavior)
• • Welcome Event - Run when a user speaks for the first time in that stream. Can use a constraint to only welcome a specific user, or welcome all users.
• • Follow: Runs when a user follows the stream.

Dev note
Due to the new system you can have multiple commands for a message. You can also have multiple triggers for a single command. I put a lot of thought and made this system as extendable as possible! Expect more from this and the command action system.

Streamlabs

• Re-enabled Streamlabs alerts. Requires an existing account. See our docs for info on how to integrate it into Glimboi.
• Requires the user to make their own dev app.

Chat

• Added a window to view the current viewers, followers, and title. Updates every 15 minutes and is cleared when you leave the page. Will be improved in a future release.

UI

• Switched to TailwindCSS from BootstrapCSS. This is a huge help in quickly designing UI layouts. UI work will be a regular part of most updates going forward. Every page has been updated but here are some highlights!
• General
• • Added a brighter color scheme. Still Glimesh colors but now easier to look at.
• • Tables now alternate colors for readability.
• • Buttons, inputs, and modals have been updated.
• • Improved padding and margin across the bot.

Removed

Performance and Backend

2.4.0

Test Build 2.4.0

Only download this if you want to help test. The stable builds can be found on the release page.
Backup your commands before running (Look at the integrations page!)

This version adds the UI conversion to tailwind. Every page has been modified. Most of the layout is the same though.
There is still work to be done (specifically with the chat page, modals (popups), general fade and animations) but any feedback is appreciated.

This update also adds the command trigger system. A command is made of the following

• Trigger: What can cause the command to activate itself. This can be a chatmessage, new follower, or new user speaking for the first time per stream. All of your commands should have converted to use the new triggers. Run a few to check, just in case :)
• Settings: Determines if the command can be ran. Point restrictions, rank locks, cooldowns, etc.
• Actions: What your command will do once activated. This has been in the bot for a few months, no changes here.

TLDR: Make sure your commands still work. Make a few new ones and try out the triggers. UI feedback welcome but be aware that improvements are coming.

This is the first time a release has been pushed to a non main branch. This may break updates so check back on the github page every now and then.

Let me know if something doesn't work properly or if any data loss occurs.

2.2.1

Test Build

Do not download if you are not a glimboi tester.
Backup your files before running (instructions in discord)

This version replaces the NeDB module with seald.io/NeDB. This is the module that handles all database interactions. While the process is the same this will need testing. Use the bot as normal. Add users, commands, and edit/save some data!

Let me know if something doesn't work properly or if any data loss occurs.
