What is Actor?

Actor is the best activities bot you'll ever use.

It supports more Discord activities than any other bot:

And even if the bot doesn't update, it doesn't have to. Actor comes with custom activity support, so if you know an activity ID, you can use it.

Actor also comes with permissions. Don't want a specific role using it, or you want to prevent your server from using an activity? Use /settings. Requires you to be the owner of the server, or have the Manage Server permission. If you can run /settings, you can use every activity anyway.

Self-hosting

You definitely won't need this guide if you're an average user. But especially:

  • If you don't know what self-hosting is
  • You don't have basic knowledge of Node.js and npm
  • You don't know how to navigate Discord's developer portal
  • You don't know how to use the terminal

But if you're looking to self-host, here you go.

npm install discord.js @discordjs/builders @discordjs/rest discord-api-types enmap bufferutil discord/erlpack utf-8-validate zlib-sync
npm install eslint prettier --save-dev

Open up config_tmp.json. Don't worry about renaming it, the bot does that for you.

Put your bot token in token and the ID of your application in client.

The feedback and errors options use webhooks. If you want to enable them, id and token for each are taken from the webhook URL: https://discord.com/api/webhooks/{id}/{token}-- but they're set to false to help make bot hosting easier.

With errors disabled, errors will not be logged to the console, and with feedback disabled, /feedback will not work. The former is to protect privacy, as errors is tied to automatic error reporting.
