-
Start the bot by having the cmd/terminal inside the bot folder and type python oreskis.py

You're done, enjoy your bot!
Q: I don't see my bot on my server!
A: Invite it by using this URL: https://discordapp.com/oauth2/authorize?client_id={CLIENT_ID}&scope=bot
Remember to replace CLIENT_ID with your bot client ID
Q: There aren't that many commands here...
A: Yes, I will only provide a few commands to get you started, maybe adding more later.
Flake8 is a tool that helps you keep your code clean. Most coding softwares will have a plugin that supports this Python module so it can be integrated with your IDE. To install it, simply do pip install flake8

PM2 is an alternative script provided by NodeJS, which will reboot your bot whenever it crashes and keep it up with a nice status. You can install it by doing npm install -g pm2
and you should be done.
# Start the bot
pm2 start pm2.json
# Tips on common commands
pm2 <command> [name]
start oreskis.py # Run the bot again if it's offline
list # Get a full list of all available services
stop oreskis.py # Stop the bot
reboot oreskis.py # Reboot the bot
Docker is an alternative to run the bot 24/7 and always reboot again whenever it crashed. You can find the install manual here. You don't have to get it, but if you're used to having Docker, it's available at least.
# Build and run the Dockerfile
docker-compose up -d --build
# Tips on common commands
docker-compose <command>
ps # Check if bot is online or not (list)
down # Shut down the bot
reboot # Reboot the bot without shutting it down or rebuilding
logs # Check the logs made by the bot.
You can run this on Repl.it! Make sure to setup oreskis.py in the way stated above.
