discord.js is a powerful node.js module that allows you to interact with the Discord API very easily.

• Object-oriented
• Predictable abstractions
• Performant
• 100% coverage of the Discord API

Node.js 8.0.0 or newer is required.
Ignore any warnings about unmet peer dependencies, as they're all optional.

Without voice support: npm install discord.js --save
With voice support (node-opus): npm install discord.js node-opus --save
With voice support (opusscript): npm install discord.js opusscript --save

The preferred audio engine is node-opus, as it performs significantly better than opusscript. When both are available, discord.js will automatically choose node-opus. Using opusscript is only recommended for development environments where node-opus is tough to get working. For production bots, using node-opus should be considered a necessity, especially if they're going to be running on multiple servers.

• bufferutil to greatly speed up the WebSocket when not using uws (npm install bufferutil --save)
• erlpack for significantly faster WebSocket data (de)serialisation (npm install hammerandchisel/erlpack --save)
• One of the following packages can be installed for faster voice packet encryption and decryption:
  • sodium (npm install sodium --save)
  • libsodium.js (npm install libsodium-wrappers --save)
• uws for a much faster WebSocket connection (npm install uws --save)

const Discord = require('discord.js');
const client = new Discord.Client();

client.on('ready', () => {
  console.log('I am ready!');
});

client.on('message', message => {
  if (message.content === 'ping') {
    message.reply('pong');
  }
});

client.login('your token');
