Running The Code With Your Own Bot Application

In order to run this bot, you must first:

1. Create a discord account,
2. Create a bot application from the discord developer portal
3. Invite the bot with the correct OAuth2 permissions to your server.
4. This guide covers the above steps in detail.

After going through the above setup, clone the source code to a local directory, then follow these steps:

1. cd into the source directory
2. Run npm i
3. Create a .env file in the root directory of the source (not inside the ./src folder) and add:
   1. A line containing your bot token as TOKEN=<BOT TOKEN GOES HERE> (Secret, should never be made public)
   2. Add your test server's guild ID as TEST=<GUILD ID GOES HERE>
4. npm run dev can then be used for developing the bot with hot reloading.
5. npm run start can be used to run the bot without hot reloading (should not be used in production)
6. npm run deploy can be used to run the bot in a production environment
