Private poll bot for Discord
About
The name says it all. This bot allows users to create private polls on Discord
When a poll is started, it will send a private message to users in the mentioned group.
Once all users have voted, the bot will present the tallied votes.
How it works
Step 1: User creates a poll using the !vote private command
Step 2: Bot sends a private message to mentioned users
Step 3: User votes with the !vote vote command
Step 4: When all votes are placed, bot displays results
Technologies
The bot is written in Node.js using the Discordjs plugin
Future
- Document code
- Users can stop polls manually
- Ability to mention multiple users without needing a group
- Polls that close after an amount of time
- Improve message contents
- Implement multiple voting methods (Ranked systems)
- Users can change their vote before the poll closes

Feel free to fork the project, however the code is currently not well documented (Documenting is first priority).
If you know of a good place to host a bot (preferably for free), suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Any bugs can be reported to the issues page on github.

Hi, your bot is very interesting for me, but is the github code complete?
I receive an error, says that he is missing file ./settings.json, do you have an example of that file?
Thank you!
@alexzicky The file is removed to protect my discord token. I added instructions to replace it in the readme: https://github.com/Aree-Vanier/Private-Voting-Bot#settingsjson
Thanks for answering me, I had not seen that part!
