This PR completely refactors the birthday feature to use database storage instead of Google Sheets, addressing all requirements from the issue.

Summary of Changes

Database Schema

  • Added Birthday column (nullable datetime) to users table
  • Implemented automatic database migration for existing installations
  • Added birthday-specific database methods: UpdateBirthday(), GetBirthday(), GetTodaysBirthdays(), GetNextBirthday()

New Commands

  • !setbirthday MM/DD[/YYYY] (alias: !setbday) - Allows users to set their birthday
  • !removebirthday (aliases: !removebday, !deletebirthday, !deletebday) - Allows users to remove their birthday

Updated Existing Commands

  • !bday - Now retrieves next upcoming birthday from database instead of Google Sheets
  • !bday @user - Now retrieves specific user's birthday from database with improved error messaging

Service Updates

  • Completely refactored BirthdayAnnouncementService to use database queries
  • Birthday announcements now mention users (key requirement!) - e.g., "🎉 Happy Birthday @username! 🎂"
  • Enhanced error handling for users who have left the guild
  • Improved logging with user IDs for better tracking

Key Features Implemented

Database storage - No more dependency on Google Sheets
Direct birthday management - Users can add/remove their own birthdays
User mentions in announcements - Announcements now properly mention the birthday user
Backwards compatibility - All existing !bday functionality preserved
Flexible date formats - Supports MM/DD and MM/DD/YYYY formats

Technical Details

  • Uses year 1900 as sentinel value for birthdays without year specified
  • Maintains existing announcement schedule (configurable interval, default 4 hours)
  • All database operations use existing ORM patterns for consistency
  • Comprehensive error handling for edge cases (missing users, invalid dates, etc.)
  • Zero breaking changes - all existing functionality preserved

Testing

  • All code compiles successfully with no new errors
  • Database schema automatically migrates on startup
  • Maintains same user experience for existing commands
  • New commands follow established patterns and error handling

Fixes #335.

A few comments:

  • Keep the !bday and !bday <user> commands for retro-retrocompatibility, but make all the other commands slash commands:

    • /bday (should be the same as !bday)
    • /bday <user> (should be the same as !bday <user>)
    • /bday set
    • /bday del
      I think Discord APi has a "subcommands" for that.
  • Also always show the age when possible, like when doing /bday to get the next birthdays or /bday <user>.

  • Also when doing /bday, if multiple people have their birthday on the same date, sho all birthdays

  • Also use the current server nickname when showing users, instead of their tagname.

…ay support

    • /bday (should be the same as !bday)
      ...

I've implemented all the requested changes:

Slash command group: Added /bday with subcommands (show, user, set, del) using Discord.NET's subcommand structure
Backward compatibility: Kept existing !bday and !bday <user> commands unchanged
Age display: Always shows age when year is available in both slash commands and existing commands
Multiple birthdays: Now shows all users who have birthdays on the same upcoming date
Server nicknames: Updated to use DisplayName instead of usernames throughout all birthday features

Added a new database method GetBirthdaysOnDate() to properly support showing multiple users with birthdays on the same date. All changes compile successfully with no errors.
