Since a lot of discord music bots are being blocked by youtube nowadays I've decided to write up a quick project that will allow anyone to host their own discord bot. This bot includes the following commands:
/help - displays all the available commands
/p - finds the song on youtube and plays it in your current channel. Will resume playing the current song if it was paused
/q - displays the current music queue
/skip - skips the current song being played
/clear - Stops the music and clears the queue
/leave - Disconnected the bot from the voice channel
/pause - pauses the current song being played or resumes if already paused
/resume - resumes playing the current song
To run with docker simply run the command docker run -e TOKEN=<your_token_here> -d pabolo02345/music_bot:latest
To run the discord bot all you need is python 3.4 or above.
Then run pip install -r requirements.txt to install all of the python dependencies.
Please note that you will also need to have ffmpeg installed and make sure that the path to the bin folder is in your environment variables.
To create a bot follow my tutorial on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PJDuI9n7rWE&t=325s&ab_channel=Computeshorts. This will guide on how to create a bot.
Lastly you'll need to deploy your bot. You can follow my other tutorial on deploying with docker https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z58g7_dHeMA but the gist is to have a server setup with all the dependencies and then run python main.py.
Remember that you need to have your token setup in your environment variables as well and it should be under TOKEN. On windows you can do this by running
SET TOKEN=<you_token_here>
