## About
This package uses the best of the Node.js world under the hood.
[Discord.js](https://github.com/discordjs/discord.js) is the most powerful
library for creating bots and [Nest.js](https://github.com/nestjs) is a progressive framework for creating well-architectured applications.
This module provides a fast and easy way of creating Discord bots and deep integration with your NestJS application.
**Features**
- Simple. Flexible. Easy to use.
- Ability to create custom decorators.
- Interact with Discord (Slash Commands, Context Menus, Message Components, Listeners).
- Full support of NestJS guards, interceptors, filters and pipes!
For questions and support, please use
the [Issues](https://github.com/necordjs/necord/issues/new?assignees=&labels=question&template=question.yml).
## Installation
**Node.js 18.0.0 or newer is required.**
```bash
$ npm i necord discord.js
$ yarn add necord discord.js
$ pnpm add necord discord.js
```
## Usage
Once the installation process is complete, we can import the `NecordModule` into the root `AppModule`:
```typescript
import { NecordModule } from 'necord';
import { Module } from '@nestjs/common';
import { AppUpdate } from './app.update';
@Module({
imports: [
NecordModule.forRoot({
token: 'DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN',
intents: ['Guilds', 'GuildMessages', 'DirectMessages']
})
],
providers: [AppUpdate]
})
export class AppModule {
}
```
Then create `app.update.ts` file and add `On`/`Once` decorators for handling Discord API events:
```typescript
import { Injectable, Logger } from '@nestjs/common';
import { Context, On, Once, ContextOf } from 'necord';
import { Client } from 'discord.js';
@Injectable()
export class AppUpdate {
private readonly logger = new Logger(AppUpdate.name);
public constructor(private readonly client: Client) {
}
@Once('clientReady')
public onReady(@Context() [client]: ContextOf<'clientReady'>) {
this.logger.log(`Bot logged in as ${client.user.username}`);
}
@On('warn')
public onWarn(@Context() [message]: ContextOf<'warn'>) {
this.logger.warn(message);
}
}
```
Whenever you need to handle any event data, use the `Context` decorator.
