## About
discord.js is a powerful [Node.js](https://nodejs.org) module that allows you to easily interact with the
[Discord API](https://discord.com/developers/docs/intro).
- Object-oriented
- Predictable abstractions
- Performant
- 100% coverage of the Discord API
## Installation
**Node.js 16.9.0 or newer is required.**
```sh
npm install discord.js
yarn add discord.js
pnpm add discord.js
```
### Optional packages
- [zlib-sync](https://www.npmjs.com/package/zlib-sync) for WebSocket data compression and inflation (`npm install zlib-sync`)
- [erlpack](https://github.com/discord/erlpack) for significantly faster WebSocket data (de)serialisation (`npm install discord/erlpack`)
- [bufferutil](https://www.npmjs.com/package/bufferutil) for a much faster WebSocket connection (`npm install bufferutil`)
- [utf-8-validate](https://www.npmjs.com/package/utf-8-validate) in combination with `bufferutil` for much faster WebSocket processing (`npm install utf-8-validate`)
- [@discordjs/voice](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@discordjs/voice) for interacting with the Discord Voice API (`npm install @discordjs/voice`)
## Example usage
Install discord.js:
```sh
npm install discord.js
yarn add discord.js
pnpm add discord.js
```
Register a slash command against the Discord API:
```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:
```js
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);
```
