DiscordBot-Webpage-Status

A Discord bot that runs in a docker container and monitors the online status of websites, displays their metadata, and updates their status periodically using embedded messages.

All website data is stored in a SQLite database, including the message ID and channel ID of the embeded message. The bot periodically scans the database, checks if each website is accessible, and updates the corresponding status message in Discord.

Bot Commands

Comand	Dscription	Example Usage
!webstatus	Adds website to databse	!webstatus https://github.com
!nowebstatus	Reomove website from databse. Deletes message from server.	!nowebstatus https://github.com
!clearwebstatus	Delete all monitored websites from database and server	!clearwebstatus

⚠️ Note: All websites must be in the format https://website.com

Usage

When you add a website using !webstatus, the bot will scrape the website metadata and retrieve its description and favicon.

• If no description is available, the bot will prompt you to provide one.
• If no favicon is available or valid, the bot will ask you to provide a direct .png image URL.

⚠️ Note: The favicon URL must point directly to a .png image file.

⚠️ Note: This tends to fail with google websites. Currently working on a fix. The script thinks the google favicon is valid but no image is availble.
