This template provides an overview of the Discord auto role bot, a tool, for managing roles on Discord servers. It can automatically assign roles to users and new members when they join. This bot is especially handy for servers where role management can be time consuming. To use it you need to set the 'DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN' in the environment variables. The bot offers commands such as '!add_role <user>'; assigns a role to a user or the command author if no user is specified and 'on_member_join'; automatically gives members the 'New Member' role upon joining.

By configuring this environment secret your bot will be able to connect with Discords servers.
Testing; Initiating Deployment by Clicking Test
After configuring your environment secret simply click on the "Test" button. This action will kickstart the deployment process of your bot. Trigger the Lazy CLI tool. The CLI will manage all aspects of deployment without requiring any input, from you at this point.

Once your Discord bot is up and running it's good to go. Here's how you can interact with the bot;
To give a user a role simply type in the command !add_role <role> <user>, in your Discord server. Replace <role> with the role name and <user> with the user you want to assign the role to.
