About The Project

I made this template because I was lazy to edit an existing project file to make a new one, so I created an starter file that can be used directly to create a discord bot!

Getting Started

Config

Make sure you have node.js and npm installed. First you need to create an .env file and fill it according to the one in .env.example

.env

CLIENT_TOKEN="Your Bot Token"
OWNER="Your Discord Account ID"

Next, create a config.json file according to the one in config.json.example

config.json

{
  "bot": {
  	"id": "your bot id",
  	"status": [
  		{ "type": "WATCHING", "activity": "My Master", "status": "dnd" },
  		{ "type": "PLAYING", "activity": "Games, ofc", "status": "dnd" }
  	],
  	"statusDelay": [ 2, 60, 1000 ]
  },
  "guilds": [ "your discord server with your bot" ]
}

If you want to add your friend as admin or tester bot, then open the handler folder then edit the permission.json file, fill it with your friend's discord account id

permission.json

{
  "admins": [ "your friend id" ],
  "tester": [ "your friend id" ]
}

Installation

Install the required package using npm

npm
```
npm install
```

Usage

Run the bot for the first time, then open a second command prompt to run the deploy-guild.js file

Run the bot
```
npm start
```
or
```
node .
```
Run deploy commands
```
node deploy-guild.js
```

After deploy-guild.js is complete, now you can deploy new commands via the command on your server that you enter the id into config.json

To make commands, I have prepared a template for creating commands which is in the commands folder.
