PlexBot - StreamBoy TV Server Restart Bot

PlexBot is a WhatsApp bot built to restart the StreamBoy TV server. That’s it—no fancy extra features, no unnecessary bloat. It listens to specific WhatsApp group chats for the /restart command and runs a server restart, logging everything along the way. If you’re looking for a bot to handle anything else, this ain’t it.

Installation and Setup

1. Clone the Repository

git clone https://github.com/0xb0mb3r/PlexBot.git
cd PlexBot

2. Install Dependencies

npm install

3. Set Up WhatsApp Authentication with Venom Bot

The first time you start the bot, Venom Bot will prompt you to authenticate via WhatsApp Web. A QR code will be displayed in the terminal. Scan this QR code using your WhatsApp account.

Venom Bot will store the session data in the tokens folder for future use.

4. Log In to StreamBoy Dashboard

Run the login script to log in to the StreamBoy TV dashboard:

node login.js

• This opens a browser in non-headless mode. Log in manually with your credentials and ensure you select the "Remember Me" option.
• A user_data folder will be created to store your session data for the dashboard.

5. Configure the Group Chat IDs

Use the bot’s logging feature to identify the group chat IDs. Any messages sent to group chats will be logged in messages.log in the following format:

GROUP_ID | GROUP_NAME | MESSAGE

Add the IDs of the groups you want the bot to monitor in bot.js:

const targetGroupIds = ['<GROUP_ID_1>', '<GROUP_ID_2>'];
