Commands, events, and components structure

This Discord bot template uses CommonJS modules. You cannot use import, export, or any related keywords from the ES6 modules.

Prefix commands:

module.exports = {
    structure: {
        name: string,
        description: string,
        aliases: string[],
        permissions?: PermissionResolvable,
        cooldown?: "5s" | "1d" | ...,
        ownerOnly?: boolean,
        developers?: boolean,
        nsfw?: boolean
    },
    run: (client, message, args) => void
};

Slash/User/Message context commands:

module.exports = {
    structure: SlashCommandBuilder | ContextMenuCommandBuilder,
    options?: {
        cooldown?: number,
        globalCooldown?: boolean,
        ownerOnly?: boolean,
        developers?: boolean,
        nsfw?: boolean
    },
    run: (client, interaction) => void
};

Event listener:

The ...args is a spread operator of arguments from the event chosen. For an example, if the event is 'messageCreate', the first argument is going to be type of Message.

module.exports = {
    event: string,
    once?: boolean,
    run: (client, ...args) => void
};

Component:

The interaction is the interaction of the component. For an example, if the custom ID is from a button, the interaction is type of ButtonInteraction.

module.exports = {
    customId: string,
    options?: {
        public?: boolean
    },
    run: (client, interaction) => void
};

Requirements

Packages:

• chalk v2.4.2
• discord.js v^14.13.0
• dotenv v^latest
• prisma v^latest
• @prisma/client v^latest

Warning

Installing any version from the package chalk that is over v2.4.2 will throw an error that you must enable ES6 modules, while this handler uses CommonJS modules.

Platforms:

• Node.js v16.9.0 or newer

Setup

1. Install Visual Studio Code.
2. Download this project as a .zip file: Click here
3. Extract the .zip file into a normal folder.
4. Open VSCode, click on Open Folder, and select the new created folder.
5. Go to src/ and rename example.config.js to config.js and fill all the required values. You can use ENV instead of config.js to keep your bot token and ID, and your database URL in a secured place by renaming the file .env.example to .env and filling all required values.

Caution

Sharing your Discord bot's token with anyone is a very risky move since you'll allow them to use your bot. This is also a dangerous move for the database; we don't recommend using any public URIs or sharing your database connection URL.

6. Initialize a new npm package:

npm init -y

7. Install all required packages:

npm install [email protected] discord.js@latest dotenv prisma @prisma/client

8. To start your bot, run node . or npm run start.
9. Enjoy. =)
