TypeScript Discord Bot Template

A Discord bot template using discord.js, Commando, and TypeScript. Supports auto-compilation.

Features

• Automatic compilation and restarting with Nodemon. When edits are saved, Nodemon will automatically recompile your code and restart your bot.
• SQLite database support with Commando's SQLite adapter.
• A good start for new TypeScript developers, or those needing a quick boilerplate for a speedy deployment.

Setup

ts-discord-bot-template makes good use of NPM scripts, so make sure you check out the goodies inside package.json. Despite this, the only thing you need to do to get a debug session started is run npm run debug in your favourite shell (in the root directory), and Nodemon will start with the proper configuration. Feel free to change the scripts inside package.json should you need to change Nodemon, TSC, or NPM's runtime flags.
