Installation instructions
For the sake of decentralization, consider making your own instance of DougleyBot.
If you plan on just using DougleyBot as a chatbot, and don't plan on using the files, you can make DougleyBot join your server via DougleyBot's Test server (https://discord.gg/0cFoiR5QVh57Spqg). Use !join-server <instant-invite>
to make DougleyBot join your server.
Note that !pullanddeploy
, !online
and !idle
don't work on this instance.
First, check if there are releases ready in the repo.
If there are none, or you want a different version (Like experimental
.), download or clone the desired branch and continue reading.
- Install Node. (The newest v4.x.x version is the best.)
- Pull this repo.
- Edit/Create config.json, use the example provided.
Once installed, setup completed and ready to be deployed, run the following in a command prompt in the folder you've copied DougleyBot's files into.
npm install
node discord_bot.js --harmony
I'm assuming you're using Windows.
- Install Node.js here.
- Download the latest release of the bot here.
- Unzip the files to a convenient location.
- Edit the config.json.example file to correspond to the details for the bot.
- Rename config.json.example to config.json
- Open a command prompt. (Windows key + R, cmd.)
- Change the working directory to the path you've saved the files to. (cd C:\path\to\where\the\files\are)
- Run npm install.
- When that's finished, run node discord_bot.js --harmony.
- The bot should be online now!
Sidenote, if any modules aren't found while running the bot, they can be installed with npm install -g <module-name>
