Grace is the official Code Society discord bot. The goal is to give our members the opportunity to participate in the development of the server's bot and contribute to a team project while also improving it.
Installing Grace is fairly simple. You can do it in three short step.
Install Python. Python 3.9 or higher is required.
We highly recommend that you set up a virtual environment to work on Grace. https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/guides/installing-using-pip-and-virtual-environments/
In the grace directory, open a terminal (Linus/MacOS) or cmd (Windows) and execute pip install -e .
(recommended for development) or pip install ..
If you did not already do it, create your Discord
bot. Then, create a file called .env in the project directory, open it and add
DISCORD_TOKEN=<Your token>. (Replace by your discord token).
Do not share that file nor the information inside with anyone.
The last part is to execute the bot. Execute grace start -e development to start Grace in development mode. The rest
of the installation should complete itself and start the bot.
If the grace command is unrecognized, be sure that you installed the bot properly.
