Running the bot on Discord

Creating and inviting a bot

To start, this documentation by discordpy explains the procedure to create and invite a discord bot to your guild.

As we are using discord.py for the bot, installation instructions for the same can be found in their README.

First, create a .env file inside /src/ directory and store the following:

# .env
DISCORD_TOKEN={enter-your-discord-token}
DISCORD_GUILD={enter-your-guild-name}

After that change the LOAD_PATH= line in discord_bot.py to your PyTorchModel's (the BentoML model) latest path.

After entering the above information, run the following command:

python3.6 discord_bot.py

Your bot will start executing! Go to your guild and type something beginning with the magic command $tag to call your bot.
