PS-Discord-BotBuilder

This is one of my personal projects, and I plan to update it for a while to come. This is a node.js webserver, which is hosting a website, with which you can "make" a discord bot.

Node.js and NPM Setup

When using this website, make sure you have Node.js installed. When you are sure it's installed, clone the repository, and open a terminal in the folder. Then run the following command to install all required NPM packages

npm install archiver bcrypt body-parser express-session express fs-extra mysql path

Database Setup

To get started with the project, you'll need to set up the database. Follow these steps:

1. Database Installation:

   • Make sure you have a MySQL server installed on your machine. If not, you can download and install it from MySQL Downloads.
   • Create a new database for your project.

2. Database Schema:

   Table 1: Commands

   • Columns:

     • command_id (INT, Auto Increment, Primary Key)
     • project_id (INT)
     • command_name (VARCHAR)
     • command_description (VARCHAR)
     • command_response (VARCHAR)

   • Create Table Command:

     CREATE TABLE Commands (
         command_id INT AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
         project_id INT,
         command_name VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
         command_description VARCHAR(255),
         command_response VARCHAR(255)
     );
     

   Table 2: Projects

   • Columns:

     • project_id (INT, Auto Increment, Primary Key)
     • project_name (VARCHAR)
     • project_owner (VARCHAR)
     • bot_token (VARCHAR)
     • bot_id (VARCHAR)

   • Create Table Command:

     CREATE TABLE Projects (
         project_id INT AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
         project_name VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
         project_owner VARCHAR(36),
         bot_token VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
         bot_id VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL
     );
     

   Table 3: Users

   • Columns:

     • user_id (VARCHAR, Default: UUID(), Primary Key)
     • username (VARCHAR)
     • password (VARCHAR)

   • Create Table Command:

     CREATE TABLE Users (
         user_id VARCHAR(36) DEFAULT UUID() PRIMARY KEY,
         username VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
         password VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL
     );
     

3. Database Configuration:

   • Update the content in the config.json file, if you dont have it, feel free to make use of the config.json.example for the layout of the json file.
     

Running the Application:

With the database set up and configured, you should be able to run your application. To run it, please use the following command
