I've been trying to swap over my code from the 0.9.6 Discord.NET API to the new 1.0.1 API, and it's basically calling for a complete restructure to my code. But I've been having some trouble actually getting the bot up and running first of all.
I set up the code body according to the guide linked here
And while it runs without error, the bot itself is not appearing online in my server.
And before you ask, I had in fact replaced "Bot token here" with the actual bot token.
namespace DiscordBot{
public class Program
{
private CommandService commands;
private DiscordSocketClient client;
private IServiceProvider services;
static void Main(string[] args) => new Program().Start().GetAwaiter().GetResult();
public async Task Start()
{
client = new DiscordSocketClient();
commands = new CommandService();
string token = "<token>";
services = new ServiceCollection()
.BuildServiceProvider();
await InstallCommands();
await client.LoginAsync(TokenType.Bot, token);
await client.StartAsync();
await Task.Delay(-1);
}
public async Task InstallCommands()
{
// Hook the MessageReceived Event into our Command Handler
client.MessageReceived += HandleCommand;
// Discover all of the commands in this assembly and load them.
await commands.AddModulesAsync(Assembly.GetEntryAssembly());
}
public async Task HandleCommand(SocketMessage messageParam)
{
// Don't process the command if it was a System Message
var message = messageParam as SocketUserMessage;
if (message == null) return;
// Create a number to track where the prefix ends and the command begins
int argPos = 0;
// Determine if the message is a command, based on if it starts with '!' or a mention prefix
if (!(message.HasCharPrefix('!', ref argPos) || message.HasMentionPrefix(client.CurrentUser, ref argPos))) return;
// Create a Command Context
var context = new CommandContext(client, message);
// Execute the command. (result does not indicate a return value,
// rather an object stating if the command executed successfully)
var result = await commands.ExecuteAsync(context, argPos, services);
if (!result.IsSuccess)
await context.Channel.SendMessageAsync(result.ErrorReason);
}
}
}
And then for the MyBot.cs class
namespace DiscordBot
{
class MyBot : ModuleBase
{
private CommandService _service;
public MyBot(CommandService service)
{
_service = service;
}
}
}
