## About
|
|
discord.js is a powerful node.js module that allows you to interact with the [Discord API](https://discordapp.com/developers/docs/intro) very easily.
|
|
It takes a much more object-oriented approach than most other JS Discord libraries, making your bot's code significantly tidier and easier to comprehend.
|
|
Usability and performance are key focuses of discord.js, and it also has nearly 100% coverage of the Discord API.
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
**Node.js 6.0.0 or newer is required.**
|
|
|
|
Without voice support: `npm install discord.js --save`
|
|
With voice support ([node-opus](https://www.npmjs.com/package/node-opus)): `npm install discord.js node-opus --save`
|
|
With voice support ([opusscript](https://www.npmjs.com/package/opusscript)): `npm install discord.js opusscript --save`
|
|
|
|
The preferred audio engine is node-opus, as it performs significantly better than opusscript. When both are available, discord.js will automatically choose node-opus.
|
|
Using opusscript is only recommended for development environments where node-opus is tough to get working.
|
|
For production bots, using node-opus should be considered a necessity, especially if they're going to be running on multiple servers.
|
|
|
|
## Example Usage
|
|
```js
|
|
const Discord = require('discord.js');
|
|
const client = new Discord.Client();
|
|
|
|
client.on('ready', () => {
|
|
console.log('I am ready!');
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
client.on('message', message => {
|
|
if (message.content === 'ping') {
|
|
message.reply('pong');
|
|
}
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
client.login('your token');
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
A bot template using discord.js can be generated using [generator-discordbot](https://www.npmjs.com/package/generator-discordbot).
|
|
|
|
## Web distributions
|
|
Web builds of discord.js that are fully capable of running in browsers are available [here](https://github.com/hydrabolt/discord.js/tree/webpack).
|
|
These are built by [Webpack 2](https://webpack.js.org/). The API is identical, but rather than using `require('discord.js')`,
|
|
the entire `Discord` object is available as a global (on the `window` object).
|
|
The ShardingManager and any voice-related functionality is unavailable in these builds.
