Setup & Deploy

To set up your own Crosswordy bot, follow these steps:

1. Create a discord bot in the Discord Developer Portal.

2. Deploy the Lambda using AWS SAM. You can get started with sam deploy --guided and follow the prompts. After you've deployed the lambda, you'll need to add the environment variables on aws console. Set these two variables:

DISCORD_PUBLIC_KEY="<YOUR DISCORD API KEY>"
OPENAI_API_KEY="<YOUR OPENAI API KEY>"

3. Register the slash commands with the bot by copying the .env.example file to .env and filling in the values. Then run

pip install -r requirements.txt # get the requirements
python register_commands.py

The APP_ID, DISCORD_PUBLIC_KEY, BOT_TOKEN can be found in the Discord Developer Portal. The GUILD_ID is the ID of the server you want to add the bot to. You can find this by right clicking on the server name and clicking "Copy ID".

4. Build and deploy the lambda with

sam build
sam deploy

5. Finally, invite the bot to your server with the link provided by the Discord Developer Portal.
