A simple discord bot that helps you get started within discord.py
- Python 3.6+ - https://www.python.org/downloads/
- git - https://git-scm.com/download/
- PM2 - NodeJS Module (Keeps the bot alive)
- Requires NodeJS - https://nodejs.org/en/download/
[Optional]
If you use Windows, I would recommend using chocolatey (https://chocolatey.org/install) to install
ffmpeg, python and git, as it's both easier and promising to work.
Chocolatey command usage:
choco install <package>
Replace <package> with what you want to install, also remember to use Command Prompt as Admin.
-
Make a bot here and grab the token
-
Rename the file config.json.example and fill in the required spots, such as token, prefix and game
-
To install what you need, do pip install -r requirements.txt
(If that doesn't work, do python -m pip install -r requirements.txt)
Note to 3: Use pip install with Administrator/Sudo
-
Start the bot by typing in CMD/Terminal python index.py
-
You're done, enjoy your bot!
