You need some node module that would allow to run it forever.
I can recommend you two - pm2
or forever
. I'm more on side of pm2
as it have better process management. Also there are tutorials on DO for setting it up.
Follow PM2 part of Set Up Node.js App for Production. It'll show you how to make it run always and as a service (e.g. automatically run it when servers reboot or after power on)
Ugh... This did not really help me cause I use a chromebook... Is there a way to get custom bot commands using a chromebook?
I use a Chromebook too. If you use dyno on your server and put in the command ?repeat into it and have 24 hours of music on there you only have to use the command once per day. You can join my server as an example
Server: https://discord.gg/PbSMp
Unfortunately there is now 24/7 not for discord music yet. Discord is only 2 years old and is still in development.
Hey TastyCookies, I had this problem too. If you're trying to make the bot appear as online, you may need to connect to Discord's sockets, which will make the dot appear and the bot will show as online. Just connecting and making REST calls isn't enough. This is what we did with Guilded's Discord bot (http://www.guilded.gg/discord_bots), and it came online after that. I'd personally recommend discord.io for websockets for this.
Instead of using PM2 or Forever... you can simply use & install SCREEN... just open a new screen, run your process... then close your terminal.
Would SCREEN happen to run the bot faster than forever? Because my bot is laggy at times with forever.
So question how do I get DigitalOcean to run my discord bot?
Hello there i made a discord app and i invited it on my server and it is offline and i want it to turn it online?
