A modular Node.js Discord bot powered by Discord.js and MongoDB.
With a focus on expandability, Echelon was engineered to streamline the process of adding new commands and information.
Echelon comes equipped with some helpful features out-of-the-box.
Within the banned-words.json file, there are two arrays—one named banned and the other special. The banned array will contain a list of plaintext words that are to be blocked. Any premade regex expressions will go into the special array.
Here is an example:
{
"banned": ["apple", "banana", "orange"],
"special": ["\\by+\\s*o+\\b", "\\bh+\\s*i+\\b"]
}
bapple app pple bannnana b a n a n a oorangege yoo hhi
b a n n n a n a byoo hiya yoop

The default command prefix for Echelon is !, but can be easily changed in the config.json file.
By linking Echelon to a MongoDB database, Echelon will collect simple information about the users in each server, including the number of commands used and the amount of bad words typed. A different database is used for each server, making user data independent.
If no MongoDB database is linked, the bot will still work, but some commands will be disabled, as they rely on the database.
