Documentation

Class Options

options.embedColor: ColorResolvable

new DiscordBattleShip({ embedColor: "YELLOW" }) // Any hex value will work aswell.

Any valid Discord.js ColorResolvable is a valid option for this parameter. This option is the color for any embed sent by DiscordBattleShip.

options.prefix: string

new DiscordBattleShip({ prefix: "?" });

Any valid string is a valid option for this parameter. This option will be the prefix that the package will use in the DM's of users for adding boats, attacking, etc. This could be your custom server prefix, or some hard coded value.

Methods

createGame(message: Message): Promise\<Message>

client.on("message", async (message) => {
    if (message.content.toLowerCase().includes("!battleship"))
        await BattleShip.createGame(message);
});

To create, handle and finish a new battleship game, call the createGame() method. This method only accepts one parameter, which is the message object. This is also the only method in the package. This method will handle the creation of the game, DMing users, updating each board, attacking the opponent, win states and more. This is all you need to know to create a new game of battle ship!
