A discord bot that provides data about availability of organ transplants and donation centers. This bot was submitted as a hackathon project for RUHacks 2022 .

ru-hacks-2022-submission - Organs4Health

The purpose of our bot is to develop a database that stores data of organ donors including blood donors, where our users can access this information and enter their personal health constitutions, once the arguments are entered into the bot, it will filter out the data according the arguments, and thus providing a potential candidate. Our developers had used nextcord library to communicate with the Discord API and aiosqlite3 to asynchronously access our mock database. This is just a prototype for a potential product pitch at RUHacks 2022 hackathon.

Getting Started - Dependencies

Nextcord

Python 3.8 or higher is required

SQLite3 must be installed

To install the library without full voice support, you can just run the following command:

    # Linux/macOS
    python3 -m pip install -U nextcord
