question

[dariuskis]

its about config.json
{
"prefix": "!",
"token": "",
"required_role": {
"use": true,
"name": "trusted"
}
}

where to put role i cant get it is "trusted" ?

[nlssn]

Yes, the name of the authorized role is called 'trusted'.

You can change it to another name of a role that you have on your Discord - just make sure it's an exact match, capitalization and all.

If you would like to let anyone use the commands, just set 'use' to false.

and how to connect bot to server? i cant get how does it works
const script = exec('.././vhserver restart');

[dariuskis]

and backup its not of all server , only of vhserver.db witch is located in /home/vhserver/.config/unity3d/IronGate/Valheim/worlds that it would do a zip with a date in tar.gz

The code you are referencing is for restarting the Valheim server.

The bot automatically connects when you run it, by typing npm run start in a console.

You do need a Discord bot account/application set up and its token added to the config.json. Would you like instructions on how to do that?

As of right now I'm just executing the commands that LinuxGSM provide.

I think it would be great to have a way to just back up the world. Perhaps separat the functionality with an argument like !backup world.

I have very limited time to work on this. So if you are interested in writing some code for a solution, I would gladly accept a pull request 🙂

Here it is from another bot and it works.
case 'backup':
if (message.member.hasPermission('ADMINISTRATOR')) {
// back back back it up
try {
const date = new Date();
const year = date.getFullYear();
const month = date.getMonth() + 1;
const day = date.getDate();
const dateFmt = ${year}-${month}-${day};
const newFile = ${backupPath}/${process.env.backupFileName}-${dateFmt}.tar.gz;
const { stdout, stderr } = await exec(
tar -cvzf ${newFile} ${db} ${fwl}
);
console.log('stdout:', stdout);
console.log('stderr:', stderr);
message.channel.send(
World successfully backed up as ${process.env.backupFileName}-${dateFmt}.tar.gz
);
} catch (err) {
console.log('Error backing up world.');
console.log(err);
message.channel.send('Oops... I broke it.');
}
} else {
message.channel.send('YOUR NOT MY DAD!');
}
break;

The bot starts running even tough that error gets shown.

A quick google tells me this is a problem when using Node v14. Downgrading to v12 LTS will fix the problem. I'll add it as a low prio bug.
