nodeDiscord

This project was created to help understand Typescript/node while building a functional discord bot.

Set up

1. install node.

2. once set up check out this repo

3. Navigate to the root location of the project and run

4. Set up a discord application here

5. Set up a .env file with the values for your server, and your bot log in

npm install

Local devlopment

Highly recommend using the visual studio code IDE.

as the start script and the sb script suggest the www file starts up the node http server and only has a basic shell config. app.ts handles most of the heavy lifting by initializing all of the needed files for start up including discordLogin.ts. From there each router/or service should be fairly self contained.

Most funtionality comes form the Discord intergration with light Twitch/Alexa intergration.

Usage

Running the bot in a persistent way.

npm run sb

Personal forking and expleration is welcome.
