How to host the bot using Glitch.com

• Click on New Project and then on hello-express (simple node app).
• Disable the option Refresh App on Changes.
• Remove the files: public/client.js, public/style.css, views/index.html (and README.md).
• Now clear everything inside of both package.json and server.js.
• And put this code into package.json.

{
  "name": "Server-Status",
  "description": "Minecraft-Server-Status",
  "version": "0.0.0",
  "main": "bot.js",
  "scripts": {
    "start": "node bot.js"
  },
  "engines": {
    "node": "8.4.0"
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "request": "^2.88.0",
    "discord": "^0.8.2",
    "discord.js": "^11.4.2"
  }
}

• And put this code into server.js.

const http = require('http');
const express = require('express');
const app = express();

app.get("/", (request, response) => {
 console.log(Date.now() + " Just got pinged!");
 response.sendStatus(200);
});

app.listen(process.env.PORT);
setInterval(() => {
 http.get(`http://${process.env.PROJECT_DOMAIN}.glitch.me/`);
}, 280000);

• Then make a new file called watch.json and paste this code inside of the file.

{
"install": {
 "include": [
   "^package\\.json$",
   "^\\.env$"
 ]
},
"restart": {
 "exclude": [
   "^public/",
   "^dist/"
 ],
 "include": [
   "\\.js$",
   "\\.json"
 ]
},
"throttle": 600000
}

• Now, make a new file called bot.js and add everything from the bot.js file in this repository.
