Hi, if you have a package.json file (which I’m assuming you do), add this to it:
"scripts": {
"start": "node your-bot-file-here.js"
}
then click show and choose one of the options, and it will run. Alternatively, in the terminal (tools > terminal
) run node your-bot-file-here.js
.
Please note that your project will go to sleep after 5 minutes of inactivity.
You can also remix a discord bot starter and paste in your code.
Im kinda new to coding and im still learing it. i don’t understand what you mean by node your bot file here.
Ok, so node.js is setver side javascript - that’s what your bot is written in. In a command line or terminal, you can run a command beginning with node
to do something with node.js. To run a node.js file, you can run node filename
, replacing filename
with the name of the file that you want to run. So let’s say the file you’ve got your bot code in is called bot.js
, you’d run node bot.js
to run that file.
