Create a Discord bot with the JDA library to integrate with the Rest API Relay module

Descritpion

Not strictly related to the development of foundryvtt modules, I am looking for someone who has some knowledge of Discord bots, in particular the JDA library (we would prefer not to use Python if possible).

We have already integrated our foundry server with the Rest Api Relay rest connector, Rest Api, which exposes the foundry features with rest services, and we would like to create a discord bot that connects to this rest api for data retrieval and writing.

Doesn't Oronder exist?

Yes, but at the time of writing, Oronder does not have an open-source backend (although the developer has contacted me about this), it works in Python and works directly on LevelDB files instead of going through the Foundry system's JavaScript services, limiting functionality and also leading to risks of data corruption because the calls are not handled directly by the system itself. These problems generally arise if you update the Foundry version and not the module, as has already happened.

So the goal would be to have a Foundry/Discord connection like Oronder does, but open source, using Java code and the JDA library.
