discord nodejs code example

Example: discord.js download

/* If you are a mac user, do this in TERMINAL
If you are a Window/Linux user, do this in COMMAND PROMPT

npm install discord.js 

DISCORD.JS IS NOW INSTALLED.
I suggest looking on youtube for a tutorial on setting up a project, but here are the basics.


THIS CODE SHOULD BE IN A "index.js" or "main.js" or whatever your main file is.*/

const Discord = require('discord.js');
const client - new Discord.Client();
const /*you can have any prefix you want here*/ prefix = "?"

client.on("ready", () => {
	console.log('literally anything you want goes here')
})

//SUPER BASIC COMMAND: BASICALLY SHOWS THAT YOUR BOT CAN SPEAK
client.on('message', message => {
	if(message.content.startsWith(`${prefix}ping`)){
    	message.channel.send('pong!');
    }
})


//EXTREMELY IMPORTANT: GET YOUR TOKEN FROM THE DISCORD DEVELOPER PORTAL
//NEVER EVER EVER EVER TELL/GIVE ANYONE YOUR TOKEN!
client.login('your token here');
