Voidoz / Discord-Bot---Base

A base for making a Discord bot

Discord Bot

Note that at the moment this README is outdated. I'll just have to get around to it...

This is code for Your Only Friend#xxxx by Oscar Hurst (some code may be edited by others and the original code is stolen *cough* *cough* borrowed from https://discordjs.guide/) and if you want to use this code you may want to edit the package.json file.

Before continuing you must install Node.js to your PC. Link here: https://nodejs.org/en/download/

Bot Setup (Local)

1. Add this code to the "process.json" file:

{
	"env":
	{
		"prefix": "[Your-Prefix-Here]",
		"token": "[Your-Discord-Bot-Token-Here]"
	}
}



2. Open Command Prompt or Powershell and change directory to the root directory


3. Type the following into your Command Prompt or Powershell:

   npm install
   



4. After creating your "process.json" file with Command Prompt or Powershell still open type:

   npm start
   

The bot is now online

Bot Setup (Heroku)

4. Deploy on Heroku

Note: Ensure that the ONLY active dyno is "worker" in the resources tab on Heroku
