Build Status Documentation Status

NPM

discord.js is a node module used as a way of interfacing with Discord. It is a very useful module for creating bots.

The examples in the repo are in ES6

Installation

npm install --save discord.js


Example: ping-pong

var Discord = require("discord.js");

var mybot = new Discord.Client();

mybot.on("message", function(message){
	if(message.content === "ping")
		mybot.reply(message, "pong");
});

mybot.login("email", "password");

What's new in 5.0.0?

Stability in general! The API has been rewritten completely for much better stability, and it seems to have worked! There are now no random crashes and everything caches properly. The API is also a bit cleaner!

However, it is a breaking change if you are updating (potentially, basic code should be fine) you should look here for help updating.
