A small Discord moderation bot, without a command handler
Go to https://discord.com/developers and make an application. After creating your application, you should have the option to create a bot user.
Make a folder for which your bot's coding will be in
Do shift + right click and select open powershell (or cmd depending on your PC)
npm init
Now, you should type npm install discord.js
, we are installing the discord.js module. Note: This will make a file called package-lock.json
and a directory called node_modules
, please don't delete that.
Get your bots token. Reminder, bot tokens are key information that gives complete access to your bot.
Place your bot's token between the quotation marks, you can also edit the prefix if you'd like.
Run your bot by typing node bot
into your powershell/cmd
Use this link and replace client_id_here with your actual client ID https://discordapp.com/api/oauth2/authorize?client_id=client_id_here&permissions=0&scope=bot
Enjoy the bot, updates are frequent so always return to replace your bot.js
with the newest one.

Also a big thank you to the contributors for correcting small errors and adding help to the bot.
