Getting Started

Install

Here is how to install d.js-BDScript. Remember to use the powershell for this.

npm i d.js-bdscript

Setup

This is the "base" of your code per-say. This should go in your main file, like server.js or index.js.

const bdjs = require("d.js-bdscript")
const bot = new bdjs({
    token: "token here", //bot token
    prefix: "prefix" //accepts an array of prefixes too 
})

bot.login()
bot.addEvent("onMessage")
bot.command({
    type: "command", //the command type
    name: "say", //command trigger
    code: "$message"
})

Replace "token here" with your bot's token and "prefix" with your bot's prefix.

Advanced

Updating

This makes sure the package is updated and ready to go. If your getting errors from node (main file name) or your bot is offline, try this then run node (main file name) again.

This may vary depending on what service you are using!

First, run the text below in the shell.

wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.37.2/install.sh | bash

Second, run the text below in the shell. Do this after running the first.

[ -s "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" ] && . "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" &&
[ -s "$NVM_DIR/bash_completion" ] && . "$NVM_DIR/bash_completion" &&

nvm install --lts &&
nvm use --lts

Getting Your Bot Online

To make your bot go "online" type node (main file name) into shell. For most, this would be node index. If you want to make it go offline do CTRL + C in the shell.

Additional Main File Options

• These are optional add-ons to your base code which will allow for more customization.

    respondToBots: boolean, // Whether the bot responds to other bots.
    guildOnly: boolean, // Whether to respond to commands in DM or not.
    mentionAsPrefix: boolean // If 'true' the bot will respond to @mention and its prefix.
    // Replace 'boolean' with true or false.

Example

const bdjs = require("d.js-bdscript")
const bot = new bdjs({
    token: "token here",
    prefix: "prefix",
    respondToBots: false,
    guildOnly: true,
    mentionAsPrefix: true
})

bot.login()
bot.addEvent("onMessage")
bot.command({
    type: "command", //the command type
    name: "say", //command trigger
    code: "$message"
})
