Getting Started

Cloning the repo

git clone https://github.com/MiraBellierr/bun-discord-bot

Development

To run this locally, rename .env.example to .env and fill in the variables, then you can run bun run.js to start a local dev environment and use something like ngrok/cloudflare to tunnel it to a URL.

Using ngrok

A way to expose a localhost port to a URL is by using ngrok. download

First, download and install ngrok, then type ngrok http 1337 in a new terminal. This will create a https://*.ngrok.io URL.

To instruct discord to use your server for all user-created interactions, you must:

• Go to to Discord Developers Portal Applications Page.
• Select / Create a new application. On the application's page, fill the "Interactions endpoint URL" input with the https://*.ngrok.io/interactions url.
• Invite your application to your server using this URL: https://discord.com/oauth2/authorize?client_id=[client-id]&scope=applications.commands
• You're ready to go!

Be aware that the ngrok URL expires after 2 hours, you'll have to restart the ngrok command after this delay.
