Discord Bot Starter Package

This is a simple and easy-to-use starter package for creating discord bots using discord.js. It includes the basic setup and structure for creating slash commands and context menu commands, as well as handling events.

Requirements

• Node.js
• A discord account and a bot application
• A text editor or IDE of your choice

Installation

1. Create a new folder and copy the contents of Discord Bot Starter Package folder to it.
2. Open a terminal or command prompt and navigate to the folder you created.
3. Run npm init and follow the prompts to initialise the project and create a package.json file.
4. Run npm i discord.js ms to install the discord.js library in the same folder as index.js (The main file).
5. Open the config.json file and fill in your bot's token, clientId and guildId. You can find these values in the Discord Developer Portal, guildId is found in Discord (You need developer mode).
6. Run node deploy-commands.js to register your commands with the Discord API. You only need to do this once or whenever you add or modify your commands.
7. Run node index.js to start your bot and log in to Discord.

Usage

Your bot is now ready to use. You can test your commands by typing / in any channel where your bot has permission to send messages. You can also right-click on a user or a message to see the context menu commands.

Commands

1. /ban will ban a user from the server
2. /kick will kick a user from the server
3. /timeout will timeout a user from the server
4. /purge will delete a certain amount of messages in a channel
5. /!say will repeat your message

Structure

This starter package follows a simple and modular structure for organizing your commands and events. All your commands are stored in sub-folders inside the commands folder. The menus folder contains the context menu commands. Each command has its own file with the same name as the command. Each file exports an object with the following properties:

• name: The name of the command (required).
• description: The description of the command (required).
• options: The options or parameters of the command (optional).
• permissions: An array of permission objects that specify which roles or users can use the command (optional).
• execute: The function that runs when the command is executed. It takes two parameters: interaction, which is the interaction object from discord.js, and client, which is the client object from discord.js (required).
• type: The type of the command, User or Message for context menu commands (required).

All your events are stored in the events folder. Each event has its own file with the same name as the event. Each file exports a function that runs when the event is emitted.

You can add, remove, or modify any command or event as you wish. Just make sure to follow the same structure and naming convention as the existing ones.
