Notifications
Naeris watches sources for you and posts in your channels when something new comes out: a YouTube video, a Twitch stream, a Reddit post, an article from any RSS feed, a game that goes free.
Adding a feed
Click Add a feed, choose the Source, then:
| Source | What to enter | What gets posted |
|---|---|---|
| YouTube | the channel: @handle, a link or the channel ID | new videos and lives; Include Shorts adds Shorts |
| Twitch | the streamer's login, as in their URL | the start of each stream, with its title and game |
the subreddit, without r/ | new posts | |
| RSS | the feed address, like https://…/feed.xml: public https:// sites only | new entries: blogs, news sites, podcasts, patch notes |
| Free games | the stores: Steam, Epic, GOG, or all three | games that become free to keep |
Then pick where to Post in, a Role to ping if you want people to be alerted, and optionally your own Message.
Feeds are checked every 5 minutes. When you add one, what's already out isn't posted, so a new feed doesn't flood the channel with old videos. Post the latest now posts the most recent item straight away, to check that everything works.
Your own message
Leave Message empty for Naeris's wording, or write yours with these variables:
{title}: the video, stream, post or game title{url}: the link{author}: the channel, streamer or author{game}: the game being streamed (Twitch){worth}: the game's usual price (free games)
For example: {author} is live: {title} → {url}.
Twitch
Twitch feeds need the bot to have its own Twitch app keys. Until they are set up, a Twitch feed can be saved but posts nothing, and the dashboard shows a notice next to it.
Commands
Notifications are set up from the dashboard only.
