Plex Discord Bot

Installation

Install Node.js: https://nodejs.org/
If using Windows, I generally install Cmder as a console emulator to avoid issues: http://cmder.net/
Clone the repo or download a zip and unpackage it.
Navigate to the root folder and in the console, type npm install
- You should see packages beginning to install
Once this is complete, go here: https://discordapp.com/developers/applications/me
1. Log in or create an account
2. Click New App
3. Fill in App Name and anything else you'd like to include
4. Click Create App
  - This will provide you with your Client ID and Client Secret
5. Click Create Bot User
  - This will provide you with your bot Username and Token
Take all of the information from the page and enter it into the config/keys.js file, replacing the placeholders.
Navigate to the config/plex.js file and replace the placeholders with your Plex Server information
1. To get your token, following the instructions here: https://support.plex.tv/hc/en-us/articles/204059436-Finding-an-authentication-token-X-Plex-Token
2. To get your machineId or "machineIdentifier", follow the instructions here: https://support.plex.tv/hc/en-us/articles/201638786-Plex-Media-Server-URL-Commands
  - In the first example under "Base Server Capabilities", you can see the information returned when you type http://[PMS_IP_Address]:32400/?X-Plex-Token=YourTokenGoesHere into your address bar of a web browser. Copy everything between the quotes for the parameter "machineIdentifier" and paste it into the "machineId" property in config/plex.js
3. The identifier, product, version, and deviceName can be anything you want
Once you have the configs set up correctly, you'll need to authorize your bot on a server you have administrative access to. For documentation, you can read: https://discordapp.com/developers/docs/topics/oauth2#bots. The steps are as follows:
1. Go to https://discordapp.com/api/oauth2/authorize?client_id=[CLIENT_ID]&scope=bot&permissions=1 where [CLIENT_ID] is the Discord App Client ID
2. Select Add a bot to a server and select the server to add it to
3. Click Authorize
4. You should now see your bot in your server listed as Offline
To bring your bot Online, navigate to the root of the app (where index.js is located) and in your console, type node index.js
- This will start your server. The console will need to be running for the bot to run.

If I am missing any steps, feel free to reach out or open an issue/bug in the Issues for this repository.

Join a Discord voice channel.
Upon playing a song, the bot will join your channel and play your desired song.

!resume : resumes song if previously paused

Customization

Update the config\keys.js file with your information:

module.exports = {
  'clientId'      : 'DISCORD_CLIENT_ID',
  'clientSecret'  : 'DISCORD_CLIENT_SECRET',
  'username'      : 'DISCORD_BOT_USERNAME',
  'botToken'      : 'DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN',
};

And update the config\plex.js file with your Plex information:

module.exports= {
  'hostname'    : 'PLEX_LOCAL_IP',
  'port'        : 'PLEX_LOCAL_PORT'
  'username'    : 'PLEX_USERNAME',
  'password'    : 'PLEX_PASSWORD',
  'token'       : 'PLEX_TOKEN',
  'machineId'   : 'PLEX_MACHINEID',
  'managedUser' : 'PLEX_MANAGED_USERNAME',
  'options'     : {
    'identifier': 'APP_IDENTIFIER',
    'product'   : 'APP_PRODUCT_NAME',
    'version'   : 'APP_VERSION_NUMBER',
    'deviceName': 'APP_DEVICE_NAME',
    'platform'  : 'Discord',
    'device'    : 'Discord'
  }
};

If you see any bugs or have any suggestions, use the issue tracker. Thanks!

To Do:

Make !nextpage count continue to increase rather than restarting each page
move to next gen javascript w/babel
use uri/headers for plex.query as shown here:

return api.query({ uri: '/', extraHeaders: { 'X-TEST-HEADER': 'X-TEST-HEADER-VAL' } }).then(result => {
    expect(result).to.be.an('object');
    nockServer.done();
});

Completed:

handle case where user types !play when another song is playing
make code look less shitty
fix !stop again
make playlists
