hiei.js

Getting Started

hiei.js is a tiny bot framework for discord.js. It is designed to be simple, lightweight, and minimal.

Installation

hiei.js requires Node.js 16.9.0 or higher and discord.js 14.x.

$ npm install hiei.js discord.js

Project setup

hiei.js is a somewhat opinionated framework when it comes to your project structure. Right now, the following is required for your bot to work correctly:

  • Store commands and modal submissions in src/interactions
  • Store event listeners in src/listeners

You can organize the subdirectories however you want. Here is my favorite setup:

src/
  interactions/
    message-commands/
    modal-submissions/
    slash-commands/
    user-commands/
  listeners/
  my-bot.js
package.json
