Retrieve voice channel members

Description

This app allows you to store and retrieve all people that are in a certain voice channel (VC) and information about a person's VC status.. It provides some examples on how you can retrieve the information. The possibilities are way broader than those examples and I cannot wait to see what you guys come up with! Previously it was not possible to retrieve all people inside a voice channel, but by recreating a caching system you can achieve the same result!

To be clear: you have my permission to re-use (parts of) the code in any Autocode project you like! Made something amazing? Share it with the community!

For support, please ping @Lars.#0018 in the Autocode Discord server or send him a DM.

NOTE

This app might be a bit more complicated than others, which is why I advise you to read through the README. If your questions is answered in the README, I will refer you back to here.

How does it work?

If you are not familiar with what caching is, I recommend you read about it at Wikipedia or Amazon's page.

The app heavily relies on the update.js file, which registers all people joining and leaving voice channels. Based on their action, their data will either be written to a database or deleted from a database. If someone switched voice channels, there data will be updated.

If you want to use the code in your own projects, make sure to keep the update.js file the same (or edit it if you understand it). You can use the other files as starting points for your projects.

Provided examples and what they do:

invc.js

Shows you all the people in a certain voice channel when doing /invc <channel>
vc-status

Shows you the information the bot has stored for a specific user when doing /vc-status <user>

Setup instructions

Install this app and fill in the Guild ID variable. The Guild ID variable is "required" for creating slash commands. They are not required for the base of the app to work and just make the examples work.
