I try to let myself and a few friends circumvent the oppressive discord upload limits.
HOW IT WORKS:
- You upload files and it breaks them into chunks that fit the upload restriction and uploads those to discord via a bot, along with a report of what it uploaded
- The master bot reads the report and updates
filePieces.jsonon my home computer - The app uses another bot to ask for the current choices when it opens and when you refresh downloads list
- The master bot picks the 10 most recent files that have been uploaded and sends them to your bot over discord
- Your bot reads that and updates your personal
currentChoices.json, and uses the choice data to make a list of buttons in the download screen - Each button makes a bot search the channel to find when that file was uploaded and then download all the attachments and recombine them into the original file
