Discord Bot Greeter

This is a simple code example on how to start your own Discord bot.

If you just have stumbled to the Git repo directly and no idea how this is being setup, please read my full guide here.

Prerequisites

• Basic understanding with JavaScript (Node JS is a bonus)
• Basic knowledge on using your terminal (mac/linux) or command line (windows)
• Installed Node JS installed. (v8.0.0 or above)
• You must have code editor installed (eg: VS Code)
• And a Discord account and desktop client (obviously…)

Setup Instructions

• Open your terminal and navigate to the root folder of the project
• Install pre-requisites by doing npm i or npm install in the terminal
• Generate your access token via Discord App Developers portal.
• In the project folder, duplicate the .env.tpl and rename it to .env then open it and add the generated token (from previous step) value there

Starting the bot

Simply run the command node bot.js
