A bot that automatically assigns roles based on message reactions.

• Customizable messages, reactions, commands, and roles

• Auto-removes role when user removes a reaction

• Option to use an embed to have all options in one message

• Error handling to let you know if something is wrong

Clone this repository to your local machine.

Run the npm install command to install discord.js

Open roleReact.js with a text editor and modify the following lines:

const yourID = "158063324699951104"; //Instructions on how to get this: https://redd.it/40zgse
const setupCMD = "!createrolemessage";
const initialMessage = `**React to the messages below to receive the associated role. If you would like to remove the role, simply remove your reaction!**`;
const embedMessage = `
React to the emoji that matches the role you wish to receive.

If you would like to remove the role, simply remove your reaction!
`;
const embedFooter = "Role Reactions"; // Must set this if "embed" is set to true
const roles = ["Hacker", "Artist", "Public Relations", "Intern"];
const reactions = ["💻", "🖌", "😃", "🆕"]; // For custom emojis, provide the name of the emoji
const embed = false; // Set to "true" if you want all roles to be in a single embed
const embedColor = "#dd2423"; // Set the embed color if the "embed" variable is set to true
const embedThumbnail = true; // Set to "true" if you want to set a thumbnail in the embed
const embedThumbnailLink = "https://i.imgur.com/P8PD7DD.png"; // The link for the embed thumbnail
const botToken = "";

 */

Mandatory:

• Fill in the yourID variable. You can get yourID in any Discord channel by typing \@YOUR NAME. For me, it would be \@Night.

• Change roles the to ones that are in your server.

• Replace the reaction emojis with the ones of your choosing. Note: to get the value for the reaction, type \:my_reaction with the backslash and press enter. If done correctly, a smaller emoji should appear. Copy the small emoji into the reactions array. For custom emojis, simply provide the name of the custom emoji that you wish to use.

• Set embed to true or false if you wish to use a single embed for all reaction roles. After that, set the text for the embed footer via the embedFooter variable

• Set up the bot and get a token. The Github Wiki Page explains how to set up bots and get tokens. An image of the permissions the bot needs can be found here. Make sure the bot has a role/the permissions that allows it to modify other user's roles.

Optional:

• Modify the setupCMD variable to display a custom setup message

• Modify initialMessage variable to display a custom initial message

• Modify the embedMessage variable to display a custom message for the embed

• Modify the embedColor variable to display a custom embed color

After you have installed discord.js and made the modifications above, run the npm start command to start the bot!
