#DiscordGo Ping Pong Example

This example demonstrates how to utilize DiscordGo to create a Ping Pong Bot.

This Bot will respond to "ping" with "Pong!" and "pong" with "Ping!".

Join Discord Gophers Discord chat channel for support.

#Build

This assumes you already have a working Go environment setup and that DiscordGo is correctly installed on your system.

From within the pingpong example folder, run the below command to compile the example.

go build

#Usage

This example uses bot tokens for authentication only. While user/password is supported by DiscordGo, it is not recommended for bots.

./pingpong --help
Usage of ./pingpong:
  -t string
        Bot Token

The below example shows how to start the bot

./pingpong -t YOUR_BOT_TOKEN
Bot is now running.  Press CTRL-C to exit.
