Creating a Bot

To connect Lunibee to Discord, you need a Bot Token from the Discord Developer Portal.

1. Create an Application

1. Go to the Discord Developer Portal.
2. Click New Application in the top right.
3. Give your application a name (e.g. My Lunibee Bot) and accept the Developer Terms.

2. Generate a Bot Token

1. In your application dashboard, navigate to the Bot tab on the left sidebar.
2. Click Reset Token to generate a fresh token.
3. Copy the token and save it in a safe place.

[!CAUTION] Never commit your bot token to source control or share it publicly. Use environment variables (such as a .env file).

3. Configure Privileged Gateway Intents

Under the Privileged Gateway Intents section on the Bot page, enable the intents your bot needs:

• Message Content Intent (Required if your bot reads standard message text for prefix commands)
• Server Members Intent (Required for guild member events and tracking)
• Presence Intent (Required if your bot tracks user statuses)

4. Invite the Bot to Your Server

1. Navigate to OAuth2 -> URL Generator on the left menu.
2. Select the bot and applications.commands scopes.
3. Check the permissions your bot will need (e.g., Send Messages, Embed Links, Read Message History).
4. Copy the generated URL at the bottom, paste it into your browser, and select your server to invite your bot!
