A simple Discord bot shell, built using the discord.js library

simpleDiscordBot.js

const Discord = require('discord.js');
const client = new Discord.Client();

// When the bot is ready, log out a message.
client.on('ready', () => {
  console.log(`Logged in as ${client.user.tag}!`);
});

// When a message is received that starts with 'hello', respond with 'world!'
// This is where you would handle various commands that your bot responds to.
client.on('message', async msg => {
  if(msg.content.startsWith("!hello")) {
  	msg.reply(`world!`)
  }
});

// Log out any errors that might occur.
client.on('error', err => {
  console.log(err)
});

// This is obtained by registering a bot on https://discordapp.com/developers/applications/
let token = "my-discord-bot-token"

// Start the bot!
client.login(token);
