To host this music bot on your own server, follow these steps.

1. Ensure you have a recent version of node and npm. I am using node 17.7.1 and npm 8.5.2 to host this bot.
2. Make a Discord Application in the Discord Developer Portal for the bot. https://discord.com/developers/applications
3. Clone this repository. https://github.com/RohanFredriksson/RocBot.git
4. Run npm install to download all required dependencies of the project.
5. Create a file called config.json in the root of this repository. The file should have the following structure; fill it in with your own details.

{
        "token": "<Your Discord bot token>",
        "clientId": "<Your Discord bot client id>",
        "guildId": "<The guild id of your server>",
        "operators": ["The", "user", "ids", "of", "every", "operator", "you", "wish", "to", "have", ...],
        "prefix": "<The prefix for all the commands on the server>"
}

6. At this point you are all ready to go. Run the command "node index.js" to host the Discord bot or use a process manager to manage the application.

Ever since music bots such as Rhythm and Groovy were taken down, my Discord server has lacked a nice way to listen to music with my friends. As a learning experience I decided to make my own music bot to fill this gap. I had worked with discord.js v11 prior to this project, but never had constructed anything useful so I saw this as a great opportunity to build something for an actual client. My friends provided great feedback for features that they wanted implemented and I would introduce these features. Through this experience I have become comfortable working with the discord.js v13 and audio streams, and have provided a product an excellent product to real users. As a bonus I can now can enjoy music with my friends once again.
