Basic Bot

Smallest useful bot: connect, wait for Ready, reply to a prefix command.

Default style

javascript

import { Client, Events } from '@fluxerjs/core';

const client = new Client({ intents: 0 });

client.on(Events.Ready, () => console.log('Ready!'));

client.on(Events.MessageCreate, async (message) => {
  if (message.author.bot) return;
  if (message.content === '!ping') {
    await message.reply('Pong!');
  }
});

await client.login(process.env.FLUXER_BOT_TOKEN);

Chainable handlers

Same thing with client.events if you like autocomplete chaining:

javascript

import { Client, Events } from '@fluxerjs/core';

const client = new Client({ intents: 0 });

client
  .events.Ready(() => console.log('Ready!'))
  .events.MessageCreate(async (message) => {
    if (message.author.bot) return;
    if (message.content === '!ping') await message.reply('Pong!');
  });

await client.login(process.env.FLUXER_BOT_TOKEN);

Habits that save you pain

Always await replies so a failed send is not a silent unhandled rejection:

javascript

// bad
message.reply('Pong!');

// good
await message.reply('Pong!');

Pass builders straight into options. Do not call .toJSON() yourself:

javascript

await message.reply({ embeds: [embed] });

Ignore other bots unless you have a reason not to. Infinite bot loops are embarrassing.
