# Create Discord Bot
A module-based Discord bot template.
## Getting started
### Register a Discord bot application
1. Go to Discord's [Developer Portal](https://discord.com/developers/applications).
2. Create a new application.
> Take note of the `APPLICATION ID` on the General Information tab page. You will need it to invite the bot to your server in step 5.
3. Go to the Bot tab and add a bot user to your application.
> Take note of the `TOKEN` on the Bot tab page. You will need it in step 3 of the next section.
> Keep your token and any file containing it **private**. If it ever leaks or you suspect it may have leaked, simply `regenerate` a new token to invalidate your compromised token.
4. While in the Bot tab, scroll down to the Privileged Gateway Intents section and enable the toggles for both `Presence Intent` and `Server Members Intent`. More information on Gateway Intents can be found here:
- [Gateway Update FAQ](https://support-dev.discord.com/hc/en-us)
- [Privileged Intents](https://discord.com/developers/docs/topics/gateway#privileged-intents)
5. Lastly, invite the bot to your server using the following link template: [https://discord.com/oauth2/authorize?scope=bot&client_id=APPLICATION_ID_HERE](https://discord.com/oauth2/authorize?scope=bot&client_id=APPLICATION_ID_HERE)
### Create a Discord bot project
1. Run the following commands to bootstrap a Discord bot project in your working directory:
> Replace `bot-discord` in the commands below with your own preferred project name!
```
git clone https://github.com/SrCrow02/Discord-Bot-V14.git
```
```
cd bot-discord
```
```
npm i
```
2. in config.json put your Token, Bot id and Server ID:
```json
{
"prefix": "PREFIX",
"token": "BOT_PREFIX",
"botID": "ID_BOT",
"serverID": "ID_SERVER",
"staff": [
"YOUR_STAFF"
]
}
```
3. Lastly, run the following command to start the bot:
```
node index.js
```
Verify the bot is running properly by sending messages in your server. The bot should log these messages in your terminal. If there are any issues, check [Troubleshooting](#troubleshooting).
You're ready to create your own Discord bot! 🎉
## troubleshooting
- Remove bots in your server that may conflict in functionality, e.g. multiple reaction role bots.
- Use [Git Bash](https://git-scm.com/downloads) instead of the Command Prompt (cmd.exe) if you are on Windows.
- Check that your:
- `node` version is `=>16.11.0` by running `node -v`.
- `npm` version is `>=7.0.0` by running `npm -v`.
- If running the application outputs:
- `Error: Cannot find module '...'`, try running `npm i` in the project directory.
- `DiscordAPIError: Missing Permissions`, verify your bot has the correct `Manage` permissions.
