Beatbot

A Discord Bot for playing music in a discord channel with queues and some other cool stuff. Made using NodeJS, Discord.js, Axios, and ytdl-core.

This NodeJS application was made to be used in a controlled discord channel environment. Feel free to ask me anything or fork the project and make pull requests (although you cannot run it locally due to the API_KEY and AUTH_TOKEN variables, for the Youtube Data API v3 and Discord logging, respectively).

Things to keep in mind:

• If you do want to use the bot with your own discord token and YouTube API v3 Data Key, make sure to run the bot on a Windows machine, since the ytdl-core depencency seems to be unstable on Unix (And if you have any suggestions on how to fix this lack of consistency, let me know!).

• Make sure you're always executing functions and requesting for external resources asynchronosly, as it can lower performance or break the application's current state.

• As of adding stuff to the YouTube video playing side of things, use global variables if they need to be referenced by another discord command.

IMPORTANT

This bot is deprecated and not used anymore, as it was one of my first bots and the code is not reliable. The only maintainable discord bot today is Burinbot. If you want to re-use this code and adapt it to your necessity, feel free to do so.
