Configuration

Copy the .env.example file to .env and add your bot token.

Slash Commands

Create a class that implements Core\Commands\CommandHandler and attach the Core\Commands\Command attribute to it.

<?php

namespace Commands;

use Core\Commands\Command;
use Core\Commands\CommandHandler;
use Discord\Builders\CommandBuilder;
use Discord\Parts\Interactions\Interaction;

use function Core\messageWithContent;

#[Command]
class Ping implements CommandHandler
{
    public function handle(Interaction $interaction): void
    {
        $interaction->respondWithMessage(messageWithContent('Ping :ping_pong:'), true);
    }

    public function autocomplete(Interaction $interaction): void
    {
    }

    public function getConfig(): CommandBuilder
    {
        return (new CommandBuilder())
            ->setName('ping')
            ->setDescription('Ping the bot');
    }
}

Once you start the bot, it will automatically register the command with Discord. And if you make any changes to the config, it will update the command on the fly.

Events

Create a class that implements any of the interfaces found inside of Core\Events. Implement the interface that matches your desired event.

<?php

namespace Events;

use Core\Events\Init;
use Discord\Discord;

class Ready implements Init
{
    public function handle(Discord $discord): void
    {
        echo "Bot is ready!\n";
    }
}

If the interface doesn't exist use the Class Reference. Just create a interface that has a handle methods with args that match up with the ones in the event. Then sit it inside /Core/Events

Disabling Commands and Events

If you want to disable a command handler or event listener attach the Core\Commands\Disabled attribute to it.

<?php

namespace Events;

use Core\Events\Init;
use Discord\Discord;

#[Disabled]
class Ready implements Init
{
    public function handle(Discord $discord): void
    {
        echo "Bot is ready!\n";
    }
}

Extending The Template

Bootstrap Sequence

Create a file inside /Bootstrap and then require it inside of /Boostrap/Requires.php.

Environment Variables

Add a doc comment to /Core/Env.php and then add the variable to .env

You should also add it to .env.example
