NO SQLITE SUPPORT ATM

This requires mySQL or any other Database server...

REQUIREMENTS:

  1. Node.js (https://nodejs.org/en/download/ ver 8.4+)

  2. Discord.js (npm install discord.js@11.6.2 « should be ver 11.3+)

3.1) ~~SQLite (npm install sqlite@3) ~~

3.2) Optional: mySQL (npm install mysql@2.18.1)

→→ if you have a database installed, you can enable it through config (instead of using sqlite)

  1. File-System (npm install fs)

  2. Request (npm install request)

  3. Bot Token: https://discordapp.com/developers/applications/me

  4. And assign bot access to your server: https://finitereality.github.io/permissions/?v=0 -with Admin role access, or... permissions to manage roles, channels, and messages... it's your bot, so it is safe!


SETTING IT UP:

  1. Download Node.js (you probably have it already if running RocketMap/Monocle)

  2. Run command: git clone https://github.com/JennerPalacios/disc_tempRole.git, once done cloning, open the folder.

  3. Open command prompt in this location or click on the handy batch file: 0---start-cmd-here---0 and type the following commands:

    • npm install discord.js@11.6.2 and * npm install sqlite@3 and
    • npm install fs and
    • npm install request
  4. Create an applicaiton and get the your bot's secret token, and application ID at:

  5. Get your application/bot to join your server by going here:

    • https://finitereality.github.io/permissions-calculator/?v=0
    • Check the boxes for whatever level of power (permissions) you want your bot to have
      • Minimum requirements: manage roles, mannage channels, and manage messages
      • Manage roles, it will only be able to manage roles that are below his role/permissions
    • Use the URL that page generates and go to it, and you will be asked to log into your discord, have Admin access in order to get the bot to join that server.
  6. Fill out the information needed in files/config.json (use example or spm as example), and launch each module!


LAUNCHING IT:

Using command prompt or bash: node TempRoles.js

-If you close that window, the bot connection will be terminated!

Optional: you can install pm2 to have it run in the background


PM2:

PM2 allows you to run processes in the background, you can access PM2 from anywhere, but for a process to start it needs to come from the folder where the file is located.

npm install pm2 -g

pm2 start TempRoles.js

To modify the file and keep bot up-to-date (auto reloading):

pm2 start TempRoles.js --watch

Other Commands:

pm2 log (display log)

pm2 list (display a list of running processes)

pm2 stop NAME/ID
