Welcome to the Discord Auto Color Bot template! This bot is designed to enhance your Discord server by automatically assigning a random color to a user's role. It's a fun way to personalize the experience for your server members. The bot listens for the '!auto_color' command and, when triggered by an administrator, generates a new color for the specified user's role. This article will guide you through the steps to get this bot up and running on your server.
To begin using this template, simply click on "Start with this Template" on the Lazy platform. This will set up the template in your Lazy Builder interface.
Before you can use the bot, you need to provide a Discord token which allows the bot to interact with your Discord server. This token acts as a key to perform actions on behalf of your bot within the Discord API.
Remember, this token is sensitive information and should not be shared with others.
To integrate this bot with your Discord server, you'll need to create a bot user and obtain a token from the Discord Developer Portal. Here are the steps to do that:
Once you have your token, follow the steps in the previous section to set it as an environment secret in the Lazy Builder.
After setting up your environment secret, you can use the Test button to deploy your app. The Lazy CLI will handle the deployment process, and you won't need to provide any additional input at this stage.
Once the bot is running on your server, you can use the '!auto_color' command to assign a random color to a user's role. Here's how to use the command:
Type '!auto_color' in any text channel where the bot has permissions to read and send messages. If you want to assign a color to another user, mention them after the command like this: '!auto_color @username'. Remember, only users with administrator permissions can use this command.
After executing the command, the bot will confirm the action by sending a message in the channel indicating the user's color has been successfully updated.
And that's it! You now have a fun and colorful addition to your Discord server. Enjoy your Discord Auto Color Bot!
