# Config
|
|
esmBot uses environment variables for configuration. To make managing them easier, a `.env` file is included with the bot and can be used to load the variables on bot startup.
|
|
|
|
Here's an overview of the environment variables required to run the bot:
|
|
|
|
- `NODE_ENV`: Used for tuning the bot to different environments. If you don't know what to set it to, leave it as is.
|
|
- `TOKEN`: Your bot's token. You can find this [here](https://discord.com/developers/applications) under your application's Bot tab.
|
|
- `DB`: The database connection string. By default the `sqlite` and `postgresql` protocols are available, but this can be expanded by putting proper DB driver scripts into `utils/database/`. You can also set this to `dummy` to make the bot not use a database at all.
|
|
- `OWNER`: Your Discord user ID. This is used for granting yourself access to certain management commands. Adding multiple users is supported by separating the IDs with a comma; however, this is not recommended for security purposes.
|
|
- `PREFIX`: The bot's default command prefix. Note that servers can set their own individual prefixes via the `prefix` command.
|
|
|
|
Here's an overview of the variables that are not necessarily required for the bot to run, but can greatly enhance its functionality:
|
|
|
|
- `STAYVC`: Set this to true if you want the bot to stay in voice chat after playing music/a sound effect. You can make it leave by using the stop command.
|
|
- `DBL`: An API token from [Top.gg](https://top.gg/). Unnecessary for most users since Top.gg tends to ban forks of bots like esmBot from their list.
|
|
- `TENOR`: An API token from [Tenor](https://tenor.com/gifapi). This is required for using GIFs from Tenor.
|
|
- `OUTPUT`: A directory to output the help documentation in Markdown format to. It's recommended to set this to a directory being served by a web server.
|
|
- `TEMPDIR`: A directory that will store generated images larger than 8MB. It's recommended to set this to a directory being served by a web server.
|
|
- `TMP_DOMAIN`: The root domain/directory that the images larger than 8MB are stored at. Example: `https://projectlounge.pw/tmp`
|
|
- `THRESHOLD`: A filesize threshold that the bot will start deleting old files in `TEMPDIR` at.
|
|
- `METRICS`: The HTTP port to serve [Prometheus](https://prometheus.io/)-compatible metrics on.
|
|
- `API`: Set this to "none" if you want to process all images locally. Alternatively, set it to "ws" to use an image API server specified in the `image` block of `servers.json`, or "azure" to use the Azure Functions-based API.
|
|
- `AZURE_URL`: Your Azure webhook URL. Only applies if `API` is set to "azure".
|
|
- `AZURE_PASS`: An optional password used for Azure requests. Only applies if `API` is set to "azure". |
