StarryPy includes a plugin that allows you to connect a bot to a Discord server that will relay messages between the Starbound and Discord servers. If the IRC bot also included with StarryPy is enabled, the Discord and IRC plugins will also relay messages between each other.
The Discord bot plugin uses the discord.py library, and will not work without it.
To use the Discord bot, you will need to create a Discord application. Go to this page and click the "New Application" button. Give your bot a descriptive name; giving it an avatar or description is optional.
Once you have created your application, you must create a bot user by clicking the "Create a Bot User" option on the application's page.
To add the bot to your server, go to https://discordapp.com/oauth2/authorize?&client_id=CLIENT_ID&scope=bot&permissions=0
(replacing CLIENT_ID with your application's client ID) and add the
bot to your server.
Once the bot is added to your server, copy the token and client id from the application to the fields in config.json. Get the channel id for a given channel by enabling Developer Mode in Discord, right-clicking a channel, and clicking "Copy ID," then paste this ID into the "channel" field in config.json. Your bot should now be fully configured and ready to use.
