⁠WidgetBot⁠

WidgetBot is a pixel-perfect open-source Discord chat widget for your website. It is distributed and developed under the GNU General Public License v3 (GPL-3) Open Source License⁠.

⁠Development

The official Widgetbot team uses Visual Studio Code⁠ for developing Widgetbot.

This fork uses the IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate⁠ which is the paid version. The free one, Community Edition, doesn't support web development. You also have to install the NodeJS⁠ plugin.

You can use either, or something else.

⁠Building Embed & Server

Before you are able to build anything make sure you have yarn installed:

npm install -g yarn

If you're a macOS or Linux user, or if you're on Windows with the Git shell installed, you can build all packages at once like this:

yarn build

If you want to build them manually or use Windows without Git shell:

yarn
yarn workspace @widgetbot/embed-api build
yarn workspace @widgetbot/react-embed build
yarn workspace @widgetbot/html-embed build  # you can skip this one if you don't need it
yarn workspace embed build
yarn workspace @widgetbot/crate build
yarn workspace server build

Then run the server:

yarn workspace server start

• You can find the embed running at http://localhost:7000/channels/YOUR-SERVER-ID⁠.
• Invite your Bot to your Discord server using http://localhost:7000/api/invite⁠.
