NoStickers-Discord-Bot

About

NoStickers is a Discord bot that allows you to prevent or enable the usage of Discord's sticker feature. Assuming your prefix is !, getting a list of commands can be done by running !help.

Installation

Prerequisites

• Node.js v14 or higher
• NPM
• (Optional) A MongoDB account
• (Optional) Git

Setup

Firstly, you need to have a local copy of this repository on your code editor, you may either:

1. Clone this repository via git clone https://github.com/MrCrypticXDev/NoStickers-Discord-Bot.git. Note that if needed, you'll have to cd to the directory the files are in.
2. Copy the contents of this repository.

So now you have a copy, follow the steps below:

1. You may optionally configure the package file to your needs. Or create your own by running npm init.
2. Run npm install to get the dependencies and devDependencies.
3. In the config file, set the following variables with the necessary values:

• YOUR_BOT_TOKEN refers to the token retrieved from the bot page of your app in the Discord developer portal. Need help? Note that it's recommended to use .env files instead of hard coding the token.
• YOUR_USER_ID refers to your user ID on Discord. There's an article for that.
• YOUR_BOT_PREFIX refers to the character your bot will detect for, so that it knows when to respond to a command. For example, !.
• YOUR_MONGODB_URL refers to the URL of your MongoDB cluster.
• YOUR_APP_PUBLIC_KEY refers to the public key retrieved from your app in the developer portal. This appears in the general page, just below the app ID.

4. You'll have to register the slash commands. Don't worry, we got your back, so just follow the next bullet points:

• Feel free to create a file (perhaps create-slash-commands.js).
• Stick this following piece of code:

const fetch = require('node-fetch');

const token = '';
const id = '';

const json = [{ name: 'eval', description: 'Executes the given code', options: [{ name: 'code', description: 'The code to evaluate', type: 3, required: true }] }, { name: 'help', description: 'Shows the help embed' }, { name: 'invite', description: 'The link for inviting the bot' }, { name: 'stickers', description: 'Allows stickers in the given channel', options: [{ name: 'channel', description: 'The channel to allow sending of stickers from', type: 7, required: true }] }, { name: 'nosticker', description: 'Deletes stickers in the given channel', options: [{ name: 'channel', description: 'The channel to disable usage of stickers from', type: 7, required: true }] }];

for (const i of json) {
    fetch(`https://discord.com/api/applications/${id}/commands`, {
        method: 'POST',
        headers: {
            'Authorization': `Bot ${token}`,
            'Content-Type': 'application/json'
        },
        body: JSON.stringify(i)
    })
        .then(res => res.json())
        .then(data => console.log(data));
}

• Run node create-slash-commands.js. Make sure to have node-fetch installed, as well as the details placed in the variables. If you see an output of JSON in your console without any error messages, you're good to go!
• Now you'll actually have to allow your bot to receive interactions. To do that, go to your app's homepage, navigate to the interactions endpoint URL field and place the link + the /interactions endpoint (e.g. https://bot.site/interactions). Keep in mind you'll need the server running.

5. Run node src/index.js to start the bot. Don't forget to invite it!
6. And lastly, enjoy Stickers while you can. 🌺

Additional information

• You may run npm run lint to find errors in your code. There's also npm run lint:fix that has the ability to correct certain types of mistakes.
• Written in the JavaScript language, runs on the Node.js runtime environment, and uses Discord.js as the core library.
• Chalk is used for logging, whilst mongoose is for using MongoDB. ESLint is for code linting. There are also other libraries used such as discord-interactions and node-fetch for creating and replying to slash commands and interactions.
