Discord-MemeBot

Requirements

Before we get started, you will need a few things if you don't have them already:

1. Python 3 installed.
2. pip (package installer) installed.
3. A Discord account.
4. A Discord server with "Manager Server" permissions.

1. Install Dependencies

Before running the bot, ensure you have Python installed (preferably Python 3.8+). Then, install the required dependencies:

python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt

If you don’t have a requirements.txt file, create one and add the following content:

discord
requests
python-dotenv

---

2. Get Your Discord Bot Token

To run your bot, you need a Discord Bot Token. You can obtain one by following these steps:

• Go to the Discord Developer Portal
• Click "New Application"
• Navigate to "Bot" → "Add Bot"
• Click "Reset Token" to generate a new token
• Copy the token and DO NOT share it with anyone

---

3. Create a .env File

To keep your bot token secure, store it in a .env file instead of hardcoding it.

1. In the bot's main directory, create a file named .env
2. Open the file and add the following content:

DISCORD_TOKEN=your_bot_token_here

Example (.env file):

DISCORD_TOKEN=your_bot_token_here

---

4. Run Your Bot

Once everything is set up, start your bot with:

python3 bot.py

---

Additional Notes

• If your bot isn’t responding to slash commands, re-add it to your server with the correct permissions via the OAuth2 URL Generator.

Your bot should now be up and running!
