Installation

Create a virtual environment by running:

python -m venv venv

Activate the virtual environment:

On Windows:

venv\Scripts\activate

On macOS and Linux:

source venv/bin/activate

After creating and activating your virtual environment, you can install the requirements from the requirements.txt file by running:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Copy the env.sample file to .env and add your Discord bot token.

To run the bot,

python bot.py

You will notice on the sample Technova server, the bot will show as online. Feel free to test commands now (e.g. !hello)

Troubleshooting

If the bot seems to hang or doesn't start correctly, ensure that the bot isn't already running or online from a previous session.
