Hex Bot

Welcome to the Hex Bot setup guide! This document will help you configure your system and prepare Hex Bot for operation.

---

Prerequisites

Before starting, ensure you have the following installed on your system:

1. Node.js (v14 or higher)

2. npm (Node Package Manager)

3. A valid license key

---

Step 1: Install Dependencies

Hex Bot requires several dependencies to function. The setup process will automatically handle missing packages, but you can install them manually if needed:

Install Colors Package

The script first installs the colors package if it isn't already present:

npm install colors

Install Remaining Dependencies

To install all required dependencies, run:

npm install

---

Step 2: Run the Setup Wizard

The setup wizard will guide you through configuring the bot. To start the wizard, run:

node setup.js

Wizard Steps

1. Authentication Configuration

• License Key: Enter the license key provided during purchase or registration. The wizard will verify your license key. If authentication fails, you will need to re-enter a valid key.

2. Bot Configuration

• Discord Bot Token: Enter your bot token. This is required for the bot to operate.

• Bot Client ID: Enter the client ID associated with your bot.

3. System Configuration

• Port Number: Specify the port number on which the application will run (default: 3000).

• Bot Owner ID: Enter the user ID of the bot's owner.

4. Embed Configuration

Customize the appearance of your bot's embeds:

• Default Embed Color: Enter a hex color code (e.g., #ff0000).

• Default Embed Footer Text: Specify the footer text for bot messages.

• Footer Icon URL: Provide a URL for the footer icon (optional).

5. Directory Structure

The setup script automatically creates the following directories if they do not already exist:

• commands

• events

• addons

• core

6. Saving Configuration

The configuration is saved to a config.yml file in the root directory. This file contains all settings in YAML format.

Step 3: Starting Hex Bot

Once the setup is complete, you can start Hex Bot with the following command:

npm start

Your bot will now be operational.
