Usage Examples
|
|
==============
|
|
|
|
Not all of these are standalone examples, many of them are usage examples. If you're a beginner to Discord.js, we encourage you to look through these examples to get a hang of the way things work using the library.
|
|
|
|
.. warning:: Please do not copy/paste code directly from these examples. Try to learn from and adapt these pieces of code to your specific situation.

|
Logging In
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
Logs the Client_ in, allowing you to begin working with the Discord API.
|
|
|
|
Logging in with a username and password
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
**Do not use a normal user account for large or public bots. This is considered abuse of the API and can land you in trouble.**
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: javascript
|
|
|
|
const Discord = require('discord.js');
|
|
var client = new Discord.Client();
|
|
|
|
client.login('mybot@example.com', 'password', output);
|
|
|
|
function output(error, token) {
|
|
if (error) {
|
|
console.log('There was an error logging in: ' + error);
|
|
return;
|
|
} else
|
|
console.log('Logged in. Token: ' + token);
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
Logging in with a token
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
You can get your bot's token using the `My Applications`_ page on the Discord Developers site.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: javascript
|
|
|
|
const Discord = require('discord.js');
|
|
var client = new Discord.Client();
|
|
|
|
client.loginWithToken('token', output);
|
|
|
|
function output(error, token) {
|
|
if (error) {
|
|
console.log('There was an error logging in: ' + error);
|
|
return;
|
|
} else
|
|
console.log('Logged in. Token: ' + token);
|
|
}

Receiving Messages
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
Here we will demonstrate receiving messages and logging them to the console.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: javascript
|
|
|
|
client.on('message', function(message) {
|
|
if (message.channel.isPrivate) {
|
|
console.log('(Private) ${message.author.name}: ${message.content}');
|
|
} else {
|
|
console.log('(${message.server.name} / ${message.channel.name}) ${message.author.name}: ${message.content}');
|
|
}
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
Sending messages
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
Sends Hello to "general" in "my_server".
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: javascript
|
|
|
|
var channel = client.servers.get("name", "my_server").channels.get("name", "general");
|
|
client.sendMessage(channel, "Hello");
|
|
|
|
You can also use a `Message`_ object as an parameter. This example sends "Hello" to the channel the message was sent from.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: javascript
|
|
|
|
client.on('message', function(message) {
|
|
client.sendMessage(message, "Hello");
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
You can send DMs to a user with a `User`_ object. This will send "Hello" as an DM to the author of the received message.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: javascript
|
|
|
|
client.on('message', function(message) {
|
|
client.sendMessage(message.author, "Hello");
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
Replying to messages
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
Sends "@author Hello!".
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: javascript
|
|
|
|
client.on('message', function(message) {
|
|
client.reply(message, 'Hello!');
|
|
});
