First, you need to clone the repository: git clone https://github.com/FormalSnake/Formal.git
Then you go into the Formal directory: cd Formal
Then you need to install the dependencies, but make sure you have nodeJS installed: npm install
When you run npm start, you might see an error saying you have an invalid token, so what you need to do is go here: https://discordjs.guide/preparations/setting-up-a-bot-application.html
Then you make a config.json file in the root directory, with the following contents:
{
"token": "Your bot token, keep this safe!",
"clientId": "The client ID of your bot account",
"guildId": "The ID of your server"
}
And that is it! You can now add your bot to your Discord server and then run npm start
Making commands has been made easy for you, but you need JavaScript knowledge.
head to src/commands and create a script called greeting.js.
At the top of the script, add the following line: const { SlashCommandBuilder } = require("discord.js");, this imports the discord.js SlashCommandBuilder package.
Then, you need to add the actual contents of the command, and what it needs to do:
module.exports = {
// This configures the command name and description
data: new SlashCommandBuilder()
.setName("Greeting")
.setDescription("Replies with a nice greeting!"),
async execute(interaction) {
// In here, you can execute functions, or in this case send a message!
return interaction.reply("Hello there!");
},
};
And now it is ready! Just make sure to stop the bot, execute npm run deploy-commands, and if it does not give any errors, you can start your bot!
Just create a issue.
