Using with Node.js
Discordeno supports Node.js by installing the @discordeno/bot
package
Pre-Requirements
Before, going forward, please make sure to have finished everything on this list.
- Create an application and get the bot token. Create Application Guide
- Add your bot to a server you own. Invite Bot Guide
- Install Discordeno. Installation Guide
- Setup environment variables. Environment Variables Guide
After you installed the @discordeno/bot
package with npm, yarn, pnpm or bun you can start using it.
This is how you can use it to create a bot that logs into discord:
import dotenv from 'dotenv'
import { createBot } from '@discordeno/bot'
dotenv.config()
const bot = createBot({
token: process.env.token,
events: {
ready: ({ shardId }) => console.log(`Shard ${shardId} ready`),
},
})
await bot.start()
note
For this example we will be using the env setup with dotenv
You are free to expand from this point with whatever code you want. Happy coding!
