## Installation

### Prebuilt binaries

You can download and install a [prebuilt binary here](https://nightly.link/ayn2op/discordo/workflows/ci/main) for Windows, macOS, or Linux.

### Package managers

- Arch Linux: `yay -S discordo-git`
- FreeBSD: `pkg install discordo` or via the ports system `make -C /usr/ports/net-im/discordo install clean`.
- NixOS: `nix-shell -p discordo`

- Windows (Scoop):

scoop bucket add vvxrtues https://github.com/vvirtues/bucket
scoop install discordo
```

### Building from source

```bash
git clone https://github.com/ayn2op/discordo
cd discordo
go build .
```

### Linux clipboard support

- `xclip` or `xsel` for X11 (`apt install xclip`)
- `wl-clipboard` for Wayland (`apt install wl-clipboard`)

## Usage

1. Run the `discordo` executable with no arguments.

> If you are logging in using an authentication token, provide the `token` command-line flag to the executable (eg: `--token "OTI2MDU5NTQxNDE2Nzc5ODA2.Yc2KKA.2iZ-5JxgxG-9Ub8GHzBSn-NJjNg"`). The token is stored securely in the default OS-specific keyring.

2. Enter your email and password and click on the "Login" button to continue.

## FAQ

### Manually adding token to keyring

Do this if you get the error:

> failed to get token from keyring: secret not found in keyring

#### MacOS

Run the following command in a terminal window with `sudo` to create the `token` entry.

```sh
security add-generic-password -s discordo -a token -w "DISCORD TOKEN HERE"
```

#### Linux

1. Start the keyring daemon.

```sh
eval $(gnome-keyring-daemon --start)
export $(gnome-keyring-daemon --start)
```

2. Create the `login` keyring if it does not exist already. See [GNOME/Keyring](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/GNOME/Keyring) for more information.

3. Run the following command to create the `token` entry.

```sh
secret-tool store --label="DISCORD TOKEN HERE" service discordo username token
```

4. When it prompts for the password, paste your token, and hit enter to confirm.
