Usage

Using Discord Spoiler Bot

This section will talk about basic usage of the bot and how you can configure some advanced features. For more information, see Configuration.

Basic Usage

Create a file called index.js and put the following inside:

'use strict';

const SpoilerBot = require('discord-spoiler-bot');

let config = {
    token: 'you_secret_token_here',
};

let bot = new SpoilerBot(config);
bot.connect();

Note the config object, it is required for Discord Spoiler Bot to work. Once you save the file, you can run your bot using Node.js:

$ node index.js

Using external bot instance

If you follow the basic usage instructions above, spoiler bot will create a new Client instance from discord.js library. If you already have an instance of Client from discord.js or discord.io libraries running and want to avoid duplicating the bot, you can pass the existing instance as client in the config object.

E.g. for discord.js:

'use strict';

const Discord = require('discord.js');
const SpoilerBot = require('discord-spoiler-bot');

let client = new Discord.Client();
client.login('your_token_here');

let config = {
    client: client,
};

let bot = new SpoilerBot(config);
bot.connect();

Or for discord.io:

'use strict';

const Discord = require('discord.io');
const SpoilerBot = require('discord-spoiler-bot');

let client = new Discord.Client({
    autorun: true,
    token: 'your_token_here'
});

let config = {
    client: client,
};

let bot = new SpoilerBot(config);
bot.connect();
