Code Examples

Initial Setup:

const { Client, IntentsBitField } = require("discord.js");
const akinator = require("discord.js-akinator");
const client = new Client({
    intents: [
        IntentsBitField.Flags.Guilds,
        IntentsBitField.Flags.GuildMessages,
        IntentsBitField.Flags.MessageContent
    ]
});

client.login("Discord Bot Token");

client.on("ready", () => {
    console.log("Bot is Online");
});

//Example options for Discord.js Akinator:

const language = "en"; //The language of the game. Defaults to "en".
const childMode = false; //Whether to use Akinator's Child Mode. Defaults to "false".
const useButtons = true; //Whether to use Discord's buttons instead of message input for answering questions. Defaults to "true".
const embedColor = "#1F1E33"; //The color of the message embeds. Defaults to "Random".
const translationCachingOptions = {
    enabled: true, //Whether to cache translations. Defaults to "true". (Recommended)
    path: "./translationCache" //The path to the translation cache folder relative to the current working directory. Defaults to "./translationCache".
};

With Discord.js Akinator, you can choose whether you want to use a slash command, or a message as the input. Here's some quick examples on how to do both!

Using Discord's Slash Commands as Input:

client.on("interactionCreate", async interaction => {
    if (!interaction.isChatInputCommand()) return; //If the interaction is not a slash command, do nothing
    if (interaction.commandName === "akinator") { //If the user sends "/akinator"...
        akinator(interaction, {
            language: language,
            childMode: childMode,
            useButtons: useButtons,
            embedColor: embedColor,
            translationCaching: translationCachingOptions
        });
    };
});

Using a Message as Input:

//IMPORTANT: Make sure to enable the "Message Content" intent for your bot in the Discord Developer Portal!

const PREFIX = "!"; //Your bot's command prefix

client.on("messageCreate", async message => {
    if (message.content.startsWith(`${PREFIX}akinator`)) { //When the user types "!akinator"...
        akinator(message, {
            language: language,
            childMode: childMode,
            useButtons: useButtons,
            embedColor: embedColor,
            translationCaching: translationCachingOptions
        });
    };
});
