Custom Voice Channels Bot

Discord temporary voice channels bot, that allows users to dynamically create and edit their own channels. Made using the Discord.js library in Node.js.

Prerequisites

• Node.js and npm
• git (or download repository manually)

Setup guide

Linux:

• Clone the repository (git clone https://github.com/outdrifted/custom-voice-channels-bot)
• Navigate to the repo (cd Elixir-Bot)
• Install all required NPM packages (npm i)
• Configuration files:
  • Edit guilds.json based on your guild. Template:

    {
        "guild_id": {
            "enabled": true,
            "roles": {
                "blacklist": "role_id"
            },
            "vc": {
                "channel": "role_id",
                "category": "role_id"
            }
        }
    }
    

    • Replace guild_id with your guild ID.
    • enabled enables/disables the bot in a specific guild.
    • roles.blacklist is the ID of the role, that is not permitted to create voice channels.
    • vc.channel is the channel that a user joins to create a voice channel.
    • vc.category is the category the channel specified above is in.
  • In the bot's root directory, create a .env file. Contents: (note: if you don't have a bot token, see the "Create bot" section to create a bot)

    # Credentials
    BOT_TOKEN=your_token
    
    # Bot ID
    BOT_CLIENT_ID=811605881971671051
    
    # Bot owner ID
    OWNER_ID=243436321018871810
    
    # Repeated channel creation cooldown (in seconds)
    VC_COOLDOWN=20
    

  • deploy-commands.js is used to register slash commands. The bot doesn't have any commands except for /ping, so it's not necessary to run it.
  • Run the bot: node bot.js. On sucessfull launch, you should see "Ready! Logged in as ..." in the terminal.

Optional:

• Install pm2 (npm install pm2@latest -g). This package allows your bot to run on system startup and automatically restarts it if it crashes:
  • While in the bot's directory, run it with: pm2 start bot.js
  • Create startup script: pm2 startup
  • Freeze process list: pm2 save
