A self-hosted service that maintains your Discord presence status (online, idle, or DnD) through the Gateway WebSocket. Includes a web UI for configuration and monitoring, automatic reconnection with exponential backoff, and Docker support for single-binary deployment.

Why this exists

Discord doesn't provide a built-in way to keep your status persistent across sessions or to automatically set yourself as online when you're away from your computer. This service solves that by maintaining an active WebSocket connection to Discord's Gateway, keeping your presence status exactly where you want it.

Features

Web UI — configure and monitor your Discord presence from a browser
Auto-reconnection — exponential backoff ensures stable connection
Docker support — single-binary deployment with minimal configuration
Multiple statuses — set yourself as online, idle, or DnD

Usage

docker run -d \
  --name discord-stayonline \
  -p 8080:8080 \
  -e DISCORD_TOKEN=your_token_here \
  -e API_KEY=your_api_key \
  ghcr.io/pyyupsk/discord-stayonline:latest

After deployment, access the web UI at http://localhost:8080 to configure your Discord token and desired status.
