- clone repository
- create bot account on https://discordapp.com/developers/applications/me
- create a json file called
credentials.json
inside thedata
folder with the following schema:{ "owner" : "your_own_id_13456", "client-id" : "123456789", "client_secret": "AJS23ASJDAS_123124AS214", "token": "ASDKASLDASDSdas.asdkkasjdkljsldk" }
- also install postgresql and connect it with the bot because otherwise the bot won't start.
(easiest way is via docker)
The bot will expect a database to run on http://localhost:5432
example config below (located atdata/postgres.json
).inside the{ "user" : "postgres", "dbname": "postgres", "password": "pouty", "hostaddr": "localhost" }
data
folder and put in the necessary information - then create a file called
initial_cogs.json
inside thedata
directory and put in the cogs you want to use for example[ "cogs.owner", "cogs.playlist" ]
- set up an virtual environment
- install the requirements via
pip install -r requirements.txt
inside the root directory of the repository - run the bot via
python bot.py
(I currently run the bot on python version 3.5.2)
If you have docker installed simply build the Dockerfile and run the docker-compose.yml
files mentioned above need to be prepared as explained however
$ docker build -t pouty-bot .
$ docker compose up
data/postgres.json
needs to have the same values set as defined in the docker-compose.yaml file
{
"user" : "postgres",
"dbname": "botdb",
"password": "postgres_pouty",
"hostaddr": "postgres"
}
To use the music functionality you need Lavalink running as a server somewhere.
The docker file includes a container running at port 2333
to configure it create a file at config/lavalink.json
with the following contents (Docker):
{
"hostaddr": "lavalink",
"port": 2333,
"password": "youshallnotpass"
}
If you host it directly on the system or somewhere else rewrite the file for your configurations for example:
{
"hostaddr": "localhost",
"port": 2333,
"password": "totallysavepassword"
}
