discord.js is a powerful module that allows you to easily interact with the .
Object-oriented
Predictable abstractions
Performant
100% coverage of the Discord API
Node.js 10.2.0 or newer is required. Ignore any warnings about unmet peer dependencies, as they're all optional.
Without voice support: npm install discordjs/discord.js
With voice support (): npm install discordjs/discord.js node-opus
With voice support (): npm install discordjs/discord.js opusscript
The preferred audio engine is node-opus, as it performs significantly better than opusscript. When both are available, discord.js will automatically choose node-opus. Using opusscript is only recommended for development environments where node-opus is tough to get working. For production bots, using node-opus should be considered a necessity, especially if they're going to be running on multiple servers.
for faster WebSocket data inflation (npm install zlib-sync
)
for significantly faster WebSocket data (de)serialisation (npm install discordapp/erlpack
)
One of the following packages can be installed for faster voice packet encryption and decryption:
(npm install sodium
)
(npm install libsodium-wrappers
)
for a much faster WebSocket connection (npm install bufferutil
)
in combination with bufferutil
for much faster WebSocket processing (npm install utf-8-validate
)
We help developers create bot using this website. We are currently adding things in this doc so hold on tight!
