A Discord Bot

This is a template!

Features

• TypeScript
• Minimal configuration setup
• Out of box support for the following:
  • Slash commands (src/commands)
  • Buttons (src/buttons)
  • Events (src/events)
• Dockerfile for deployment

Build & Run

Development

Just run yarn dev. No build is required, as the bot will run in ts-node. You can use yarn dev-pretty to run with prettified logs.

Production/Hosting

Option 1 - Docker

1. Copy config.example.json5 to config.json5 and fill in the fields
2. Build a docker image: docker build -t bot .
3. Start a container from that image: docker run bot

Done!

Option 2 - Yarn

1. Copy config.example.json5 to config.json5 and fill in the fields
2. yarn build to transpile TypeScript to JavaScript
3. yarn host to start the bot

Building and hosting are separated because changes to config.json5 do not require a complete re-build of the bot.
