## Creating a project
### Registering Discord app
1. Visit [Discord Developer Portal](https://discord.com/developers/) and create an app
2. Navigate to the _Bot_ section and register a bot
3. Navigate to _OAuth 2_ section, select _bot_ and _application.commands_ scopes and check bot permissions
4. Copy the link and add your bot to the servers
### Creating application
1. Create empty directory
2. Run `npm init -y` or `yarn init -y`
3. Add the CommandBot package
```javascript
// npm
npm install commandbot@latest
// yarn
yarn add commandbot@latest
```
4. Create _index.js_ file
5. Import the CommandBot package
```javascript
// CommonJS
const { Bot, Command } = require("commandbot");
// ES Modules (to use ESM add "type": "module" to your package.json file)
import { Bot, Command } from "commandbot";
```
6. Initialize the bot instance
```javascript
const bot = new Bot({
name: "YOUR_BOT_NAME",
prefix: "BOT_PREFIX", // bot prefix (optional) (if undefined, only slash commands will be available)
argumentSeparator: ",", // used to separate parameters from messages (optional)
clientOptions: {
intents: [..."DISCORD_API_INTENTS"],
}, // Discord.js ClientOptions (optional)
token: "DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN" // Discord bot token
applicationId: "APPLICATION_ID" // Discord application ID used to register slash commands
});

7. Create and add commands to the _Bot_ instance (see [Commands](#commands))
8. Start your bot
```javascript
bot.start(
port, // If passed, the application will create a HTTP server
true // If true, the app will register all slash commands in the Discord API (it's recommended setting it to false after registering to avoid reaching daily quota)
);
```
