First, install the dependencies: npm install npm install -D

If you want your bot to only accept commands on a specific channel and also redirect commands there, you need to give it the Manage Messages permission and create a channel which name includes bot-commands.

For the bot to run properly, you need to create a .env file and add these variables, laid out in the .env.sample file:

  • DISCORD_API_TOKEN: Your discord API token. See this guide on how to obtain one.
  • MONGODB_URI: Your MongoDB connection URI.
  • GUILD_ID: Your Discord server ID.
  • POLLEN_ADMIN: Your Pollen Admin IDs array.
