A discord bot that helps you make a decision by picking between options you provide.
Click here to add the bot to your server.
The easiest way to get started is to use /make-choice. This command just takes one argument, the title of the choice.
An example usage would be:
/make-choice 'Do i get back to work?'
This will look like the following image.
Next, you can use the ✏️ Convert to yes/no choice button to automatically add a yes and a no choice to the prompt.
You could also use ✏️ Add choice to manually add more options (this is useful if you wanna have more options besides just yes and no)
An example of this would be:
/make-choice 'What should i get to eat?'.
Then, you could use ✏️ Add choice to add options like Pizza, etc.
Once you're done with adding your options, you can use ✅ Make choice to let the bot pick between all the options you provided.
This will look like the following:
| Basic yes/no choice | Custom options |
|---|---|

- This permission is needed, if you want to use commands and interact with the bot in any way.
Since Use Application Commands is the only permission this bot needs to run, its unable to send messages, deletes messages, etc. This makes the bot very save.
To set this project up locally, you have to:
- clone the project
- run
npm installorpnpm install - add a file to start the bot (later referred to as
startBot.ps1) - run
./startBot.ps1
The file needed to start the bot needs to contain the following things:
startBot.ps1
# Save this file as `startBot.ps1`
# can be ported for linux/mac as well, use appropriate syntax
$env:TOKEN = <your-token>
$env:CLIENT_ID = <your-client-id>
$env:MONGO_URI = <your-mongo-uri>
pnpm build
node build/index.jsTo run this locally, you need to create a new discord bot via the discord developer api (can be found here).
Fill the environment variables using the appropriate fields from your bot.
Additionally, you need a mongodb-uri to handle data. I used atlas for this (can be found here).
