# PinBoardBot
|
|
A discord bot that aims to replace the discord built-in pin function as it is limited to 50 pins per channel.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Known issue:** attachments such as pictures that were originally uploaded by the user cannot be pinned. *I'm working on a fix*
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Setup
|
|
1. clone the repository:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
git clone https://github.com/J-onasJones/PinBoardBot.git
|
|
```
|
|
2. cd into the repository folder
|
|
```
|
|
cd PinBoardBot
|
|
```
|
|
3. go to the [discord developer portal](https://discord.com/developers/) and create a new application and bot.
|
|
4. paste the bot token and channel id for your "pins" text channel in the `config.json` file.
|
|
5. Invite your newly created bot onto the server with the following link (replace `CLIENT_ID` with the client ID of your application):
|
|
```
|
|
https://discord.com/oauth2/authorize?client_id=CLIENT_ID&scope=bot
|
|
```
|
|
6. install the required node modules with the following command:
|
|
```
|
|
npm i
|
|
```
|
|
7. run the following command to start the bot (npm (any) and node version `18.8.x` must be installed)
|
|
```
|
|
npm start
|
|
```
