rm ../lambda_bot.zip

Usage:

With the bot uploaded to lambda, you need to register the command with Discord, this is done from your local machine.

Note: you will need a .env file in the register_commands directory with the BOT_TOKEN and APP_ID from Discord Developer then the ID of the Discord Guild (Aka. Discord Server) Update serverless_discord/register_commands/register.js to match the new command:

let command_data = {
    "name": "<your command name here>",
    "description": "<The decription that will be shown in Discord when users start typing the command name>",
    
    // Optional - This is used to add a subcommand to the command if you need it. Example: /metar <ICAO>
    // Remove this (or comment it out) if you don't need it.
    "options": [
        {
            "name": "foo",
            "description": "The foo to echo back",
            "type": 3,
            "required": true
        }
    ]
}

then run it:

cd serverless_discord/register_commands
