Discord.js Bot Template

Written by: Chujia Guo

This project is my attempt at making a discord bot template. It can be reused to make multiple bots without starting from scratch.

Features:

• Custom Command Ready
• Has some basic commands such as ping and help
• Commands have permissions.

Setup:

• Before starting, make sure you have Node.js and Discord.js installed.
• In order to start using the bot, create a privatekeys.json file in the root folder. (This is where the main.js file is)
• In that file, add your token in JSON format, like so:

{
    "token":"insert-token-here"
}

• Install dependencies by running npm install dependencies while in this folder.
• Add your bot to the server of your choice, run node main.js in your terminal and you should be all set!

Default Commands:

• ping
• setup
• help

Adding Commands:

• Add custom commands in the custom_commands folder.
• Basic Command Template:

exports.run = async (client, message, args, Discord) => {
        //Insert Code Here!
}
exports.config = {
    "name": "",
    "description":"",
    "aliases": [""]
}

• Manually add permissions in the permissions.json file using command name to role id pairs, or by using the setup command.
