A discord bot that makes a new thread for every message in certain channels.

Message	Thread

1. Edit the src/config/config.json with API token and the IDs of the channels you want to thread every message in:

   {
       "discordApiToken": "INSERT TOKEN HERE",
       "threadChannels": [
           "CHANNEL ID 1 HERE",
           "CHANNEL ID 2 HERE",
           "ETC"
       ]
   }

2. Run npm install
3. Run npm start
4. Make sure the bot has the required permissions in Discord. Depending on your configuration, these can be:
   • USE_PUBLIC_THREADS (always required)
   • SEND_MESSAGES (always required)
   • READ_MESSAGE_HISTORY (always required)
   • EMBED_LINKS (required if there are any embeds)
   • MANAGE_MESSAGES (required if shouldPin is true)
5. Done! 🎉

If you want to, you can configure how the bot reacts by editing the src/config/config.json file. Here are the default settings:

"threadArchiveDurationInMinutes": "MAX",
"threadMessage": {
    "shouldSend": true,
    "shouldPin": true,
    "content": "Thread created from $$channelMention by $$authorMention $$relativeTimeSince with the following message:",
    "embeds": [
        "$$messageEmbed"
    ]
}

An explanation follows.

Determines the duration of inactivity that causes a thread to be automatically archived (by Discord). If your server's boost level is not high enough for the setting you choose, or if you leave it blank, it will default to "MAX".

Allowed values:

• 60 (= 1hr)
• 1440 (= 1d)
• 4320 (= 3d) ⚠️ only for servers with boost level 1 or higher
• 10080 (= 1w) ⚠️ only for servers with boost level 2 or higher
• "MAX" (depends on the server's boost level)

Settings regarding the message that is sent by the bot in the thread when it is created.
