@wozardlozard/discord.js NPM

About

This library is a fork of discord.js, a powerful Node.js module that allows you to easily interact with the Discord API.

Object-oriented
Predictable abstractions
Performant
100% coverage of the Discord API

Additional features provided by this library:

Improves detection of user presence updates
Greatly reduces presence caching without compromising presence update detections when sweepers are implemented.
Continues to support the EmbedBuilder.addField() method.

Installation

Node.js 16.9.0 or newer is required.

npm install discord.js
yarn add discord.js
pnpm add discord.js

Optional packages

zlib-sync for WebSocket data compression and inflation (npm install zlib-sync)
erlpack for significantly faster WebSocket data (de)serialisation (npm install discord/erlpack)
bufferutil for a much faster WebSocket connection (npm install bufferutil)
utf-8-validate in combination with bufferutil for much faster WebSocket processing (npm install utf-8-validate)
@discordjs/voice for interacting with the Discord Voice API (npm install @discordjs/voice)

Example usage

Install discord.js:

npm install discord.js
yarn add discord.js
pnpm add discord.js

const { REST, Routes } = require('discord.js');

const commands = [
  {
    name: 'ping',
    description: 'Replies with Pong!',
  },
];

const rest = new REST({ version: '10' }).setToken(TOKEN);

(async () => {
  try {
    console.log('Started refreshing application (/) commands.');

    await rest.put(Routes.applicationCommands(CLIENT_ID), { body: commands });

    console.log('Successfully reloaded application (/) commands.');
  } catch (error) {
    console.error(error);
  }
})();

Afterwards we can create a quite simple example bot:

const { Client, GatewayIntentBits } = require('discord.js');
const client = new Client({ intents: [GatewayIntentBits.Guilds] });

client.on('ready', () => {
  console.log(`Logged in as ${client.user.tag}!`);
});

client.on('interactionCreate', async interaction => {
  if (!interaction.isChatInputCommand()) return;

  if (interaction.commandName === 'ping') {
    await interaction.reply('Pong!');
  }
});

client.login(TOKEN);
