A Discord bot that uses Markov Chains to generate text based on the data fetched from a specific API endpoint.
bot.js- The entry point of the application where the bot is initialized.commands/thesis.js- Contains the logic for loading data from an API and feeding it into the Markov generator.venues.json- A JSON file containing venues to request from ITP projects database.
I'm using Axios to fetch data from an API endpoint because the server where the data resides doesn't have SSL/TLS properly configured. Axios allows bypassing this issue, enabling the retrieval of the necessary data. However, bypassing SSL/TLS certificate verification is not recommended due to potential security risks, and this approach is utilized here for demonstration purposes only!
