Running

To run Dwight, you'll first need to create a Discord bot. Follow the instructions over at discordjs.guide to get started.

Once you have a bot created, you can run Dwight via Docker (recommended) or manually.

Docker

The easiest way to run Dwight is via Docker. We host images on GitHub Container Registry.

First you need to register the application commands. You can either do this globally, which can take a couple hours to propegate or for a single guild which is instant.

docker run --rm -e BOT_TOKEN=your-bot-token -e CLIENT_ID=your-client-id ghcr.io/mloberg/dwight-bot install [guild]

Once installed, run the app.

docker run -e BOT_TOKEN=your-bot-token ghcr.io/mloberg/dwight-bot

You can also use Docker Compose. Grab docker-compose.yml, create a .env from .env.dist, and run docker-compose up -d. To register the commands, run docker-compose run --rm bot install.

Manually

To run Dwight without Docker, you'll need NodeJS 16.

First run npm install and npm run build.

Then install the commands.

BOT_TOKEN=your-bot-token CLIENT_ID=your-client-id GUILD_ID=your-guild-id node dist/bin/install.js

Then run the bot.

BOT_TOKEN=your-bot-token npm start

Data

Some commands save data (like portent). By default this is in-memory, but you can either save it to Redis or to disk as a JSON file. To save in redis, pass (or set) DB_URL to redis://user:pass@localhost:6379. To save to disk set file:./path/to/file.json.

docker run -e BOT_TOKEN=your-bot-token -e DB_URL=file:.data/store.json -v $PWD/.data:/app/.data ghcr.io/mloberg/dwight-bot

Development

Copy .env.dist to .env and fill in the values. Rebuild and restart the bot on file changes with npm run dev.
