Setting up and config

AlceBot comes with a config.py file. Here you will add your Discord App token, and add startup extensions. You can generate a token at https://discordapp.com/developers/applications/me.

Find the string "token here" in the config file and replace it with your token.

In the config.py file, you can also customise insults, error messages, bot prefix, bot description and the file you want the bot to log events to.

Starting the bot

You can start the bot by launching start.bash directly, or using a Python IDE such as PyCharm or Visual Studio Code. To launch start.bash, you need to go to terminal and type bash start.bash.

Tips

Make sure to always update AlceBot. You can create GitHub Webhooks for Discord to get notified whenever a repo is updated.

When you do this, always keep a backup! It's also useful to write down your token, but NEVER give this to anyone you don't trust, or publish it to your GitHub. Don't worry though - you can generate a new token whenever you want on the Discord developer portal.
