⁠BlemflarkBot

/u/BlemflarkBot⁠ is a Reddit⁠ Bot whose sole purpose is to listen on /r/rickandmorty⁠ subreddit and provide currency conversions from Blemflarks to USD.

According to the season 3 premier of Rick and Morty, 1 Blemflark is worth $0⁠.

⁠Invoking BlemflarkBot

BlemflarkBot is usually running on a google cloud instance as a docker container.

If a comment has both a <number> blemflark(s) and one of the following: how, what, ?, !, then the bot will generate a reply message that looks like something like this⁠:

===

• 42 Blemflarks → $0 USD

---

^{1 Blemflark = $0 USD⁠ | price not guaranteed | [what is my purpose](https://github.com/Elucidation/blemflark_bot⁠ 'I'll tell you, for money')}

===

If you make a comment that satisfies those two requirements, and the bot is running, it will probably see and reply with the conversion within a couple minutes (10 minutes at worst).

Regex used: p = re.compile('([^\n\.\,\r\d-]{0,30})(-?[\d|,]{0,300}\.{0,1}\d{1,300} bl?emfl?ark[\w]{0,80})([^\n\.\,\r\d-]{0,30})', re.IGNORECASE)

This allows for variants on blemflark like blemflarks, BlemFarks!!!, blemflarkaronis, etc.
