A ready made template for using a Discord bot with advanced commands/events handlers already created.

Description

PLEASE NOTE THIS DISCORD BOT METHOD IS NOW OLD. SLASH COMMANDS ARE NOW PREFERRED.

This template was made using CodeLyon's method of advanced commands/events handlers.

Getting Started

Dependencies

• Node.js (Current)
• A Discord Bot
• Discord.js node module

Installing

1. Install the 'Current' Node.js from https://nodejs.org
2. Clone/fork this repo using your preferred method e.g.

git clone https://github.com/ThatSameer/discord-bot-template.git

NEW: You can now click the big green 'Use this template' button at the top of this repo!

Note: Remember to switch on both Privileged Gateway Intents for your Discord bot in your Discord Developer Portal

Using this template

• In the index.js file, assign your Discord bot token to 'token' using your preferred method. It is generally not recommended to store your token in plain text. Treat your token like your password!
