Quickstart

Click here to deploy!

Developer quick start 👩‍💻

npm run dev will launch the bot locally, with hot reloading included.

There are a few other scripts provided:

• start: Starts up the bot without hot reloading; used for deployment.
• lint: Lints the project with ESLint.
• test: Runs all the tests! (no tests for now)

Configuration

First, install the dependencies: npm install npm install -D

If you want your bot to only accept commands on a specific channel and also redirect commands there, you need to give it the Manage Messages permission and create a channel which name includes bot-commands.

For the bot to run properly, you need to create a .env file and add these variables, laid out in the .env.sample file:

• DISCORD_API_TOKEN: Your discord API token. See this guide on how to obtain one.
• MONGODB_URI: Your MongoDB connection URI.
• GUILD_ID: Your Discord server ID.
• POLLEN_ADMIN: Your Pollen Admin IDs array.
