It would be nice to have a feature on the Solar Car Discord that would enable admins to create a join link that automatically assigns a role when joined.

Some requirements for this feature:

Role Specified CANNOT have the administrator permission
User creating join link must have permission to assign the role themselves (prevents privilege escalation)
Program should use PostgreSQL as DB backend

I already made some code as a proof of concept, it does the following when the command is called:

Creates join link and stores invite code and the associated roleID alongside it
Listens for new members
On new member join, check the audit log to see which invite code's counter incremented. Use this to determine if the joining user should be given a role automatically.

You should use the proof of concept code as a base for the rest of the program
