A bot which provides a Trivia game for [Discord](https://discordapp.com/).


### Adding to a server
You can either self-host trivia-bot, or use the hosted version.

To invite the bot to your server use [this invite link](https://discordapp.com/oauth2/authorize?client_id=199657080083316737&scope=bot).
It requires no special permissions at this time (only read/write to channels).


### Trivia Questions
Questions are obtained from [trivia-db on Sourceforge](https://sourceforge.net/projects/triviadb/).

To parse the `.txt` question files, place them in `/data_management/questions/` then run `LoadDB.cpp`. 
You need to create the database first. Use the included schema and create the database as `/bot/db/trivia.db`.

LoadDB.cpp takes some time to execute.


### Commands
`` `trivia`` is the base command.
