Welcome to the Reaction Roles Discord Bot Template! This template allows you to create a Discord bot that can automatically manage user roles based on reactions to a specific message. This is particularly useful for community servers where you want to assign roles without manual intervention. The bot uses emoji reactions as triggers to assign or remove roles from users in your Discord server.
To begin using this template, simply click on the "Start with this Template" button. This will pre-populate the code in the Lazy Builder interface, so you won't need to copy, paste, or delete any code manually.
Before you can test and deploy your bot, you need to set up a few environment secrets within the Lazy Builder. These secrets include your Discord bot token, the ID of your guild (server), and the ID of the message you want to use for reaction roles.
Enter these values in the Environment Secrets tab within the Lazy Builder.
Once you have set up the environment secrets, press the "Test" button to begin the deployment of your app. The Lazy CLI will handle the deployment process, and you won't need to worry about installing libraries or setting up your environment.
After deployment, your Discord bot will be live and ready to manage roles based on reactions. Here's how it works:
Make sure the bot has the necessary permissions to manage roles in your Discord server and that the roles you want to assign are correctly named in the REACTION_ROLE_MAP dictionary within the code.
To integrate this bot into your Discord server, you need to invite the bot to your server using the OAuth2 URL generated in the Discord Developer Portal. Ensure you grant the bot the 'Manage Roles' permission and any other permissions it may require to function correctly.
After inviting the bot to your server, make sure to place the bot's role above the roles it will manage in the server's role hierarchy. This is necessary for the bot to have the ability to assign and remove roles from users.
With the bot set up and integrated into your server, you can now enjoy automated role management based on user reactions. This will make your server more interactive and engaging for your community.
If you need to make changes to the reaction-role mappings or add new ones, you can do so directly in the Lazy Builder interface by updating the REACTION_ROLE_MAP dictionary in the code.
Enjoy your new Reaction Roles Discord Bot!
The Discord bot monitors all messages in the server. If a message contains profanity, the bot deletes it and sends a warning to the channel. The bot also notifies the host about the deletion via a direct message. Additionally, the bot outputs a helpful error message to a channel if there is a permissions error, guiding the server admin to enable the required permission in the Discord Developer portal.
