Configuration

After cloning the project and installing all dependencies provide proper Discord API token, default voice channel ID, default text channel ID (for now playing notifications), and url for one or more music stream in config.json file. To acquire channel ID, enable developer mode in Discord and right-click any channel.

Example configuration for radio station:

{
  "prefix": "!a",
  "token": "{BOT TOKEN}",
  "voicechannel": "{VOICE CHANNEL ID}",
  "logchannel": "{TEXT CHANNEL ID}",
  "activity": "Anime Radio",
  "list": [
    {
      "name": "Anime Radio",
      "url": "https://pool.anison.fm/AniSonFM(320)?nocache=0.05"
    }
  ]
}

Example configuration for custom playlist:

{
  "prefix": "!d",
  "token": "{BOT TOKEN}",
  "voicechannel": "{VOICE CHANNEL ID}",
  "logchannel": "{TEXT CHANNEL ID}",
  "activity": "Ranobe Radio",
  "list": [

    }
  ]
}

Starting the application

Since the bot works even when there is no one in the channel, I strongly recommend to use forever or pm2 with cron autorestart for non-stop broadcasting (because of Discord API features the bot has a tendency to transmit silence after 20-30 hours of uptime).

pm2 start index.js --name DiscoBot --log bot.log --time --restart-delay 5000 & pm2 start restart.js --name Restart

Оr you can do it without process managers.

node index.js

discobot's Issues

ERROR VOICE_CONNECTION_TIMEOUT bot stopped connecting on March 20th, 2023

Getting this error:

Thoughts?

command to allow bot to join vc in any server?

this shouldn't have been posted as an issue since its a suggestion or question
Is there a way to actually make the bot join any VC in any guild instead of staying in one VC in one server?

No sound after automatic pm2 restart

I start the bot with:

pm2 start index.js --name DiscoBot --time --restart-delay 5000 & pm2 start restart.js --name Restart

about 5 hours after I started my dicobot I saw the following output and as you can see the last entry in the below log seems that it reconnected. I checked on my discord channel and the bot kept connected to the voice channel but no sound was coming out from the bot

Now Playing: My Shoucast Radio - Track 1

I had to manually run: pm2 restart DiscoBot to restart the bot and that fixed the sound on the Discord app side

no audio

bot is displayed like its sending audio (green circle around avatar) but there is no sound coming from it

Any change you could move that bot token to an env file on repl.it for better security

Hey,

Any chance you could take a look at the code on repl.it ?
I and a few others have Disco Bot ported to repl.it but it throws up a few errors and won't start any more.

Also, for better security, there's an option on repl.it to store the bot token in an env file instead of in the config file which is public.

Appreciate it great little app.
