Go-Discord-Message-Bot

Behaviour

Bot reacts to certain text messages by giving a reply

Installing

• You must have Go v1.21 (or higher) installed on your system
• To enable this bot for your discord server you must have a bot template at Discord Applications
• The bot template must have text and channel/message viewing permissions
• The bot must be authorized and be on your server

Executing program

• Clone this repository to the location of your choosing
• Enter your Bot Token into config.json file
• Open your terminal
• Navigate to the saved location using cd folderName command, where folderName is the name of your path folder
• When in right location run:

go mod download
go build

Customization

You can add your own message queries by adding rules to the messageHandler() function in bot.go file

For Example:

if m.Content == "Desired message query" {
   _, _ = s.ChannelMesageSend(m.ChannelID, "Desired answer")
}
