• Set up Discordopole
  • Creating a Discord Bot
  • Extra Server
• Config Options

Getting Discordopole on is a pretty easy task, especially if you've set up a Discord Bot before. Below is a step by step tutorial on how to get started.

• Clone the repo and copy the config_example folder to config

• Install the requirements.txt

• Fill out the geofence.json file in the config folder. (Tip: It's the same format as PoracleJS, so you can just copy it from there)

• Fill out the config.ini file in the config folder. Below is a table that explains most options

• Create a Discord Bot and invite it to your Servers (explained) below

• Set up an extra Server and use it to dump assets in. Also explained below

  git clone https://github.com/ccev/Discordopole.git && cd Discordopole
  cp -r config_example config
  pip3 install -r requirements.txt --upgrade
  cd .. && cp PoracleJS/config/geofence.json Discordopole/config/geofence.json
  nano Discordopole/config/config.ini
  python3 discordopole.py
  

• Go to the Discord Developer Portal

• Create a New Application, give it a name and profile picture and confirm everything

• In the left menu, go to Bot, Add Bot, confirm and disable the Public Bot option (recommended)

• Copy the Bot Token and paste it into your Config

• Copy the Client ID in the General Information section

• Now replace CLIENT_ID_HERE in the below link with your Client ID, click the Link and invite the Bot to all Servers you need

Discordopole sometimes uses custom emotes to make messages more beautiful. To use them, it needs to share a Server that has said Emotes, so it's best to just make an extra one for it to avoid possible emote limits or other conflictions. Additionally, Discordopole sometimes displays images in its messages. It does that by uploading them to a Channel and using the then generated Link. You could use any Channel for that, but why not use one on that extra Server when you have one anyway. So:

• Create a Discord Server
• Invite the Bot to it using the Link abover
• Mute it
• Copy the Channel ID of #general (right click - Copy ID) and paste it in the config's trash_channel option
• Copy the Server ID (found in Server Settings - Widget) and paste it in the config's trash_server option
• Say !get emotes once, then the Server's name to confirm and let the Bot import Emotes.
