Termux

What is Termux?

Termux is an Android terminal emulator and Linux environment app that works directly with no rooting or setup required. A minimal base system is installed automatically - additional packages are available using the APT package manager.

Note

Please note that your bot will only be online when your phone is on and connected to the internet. If you want your bot to be online 24/7, you should consider using a VPS or a hosting service.

Your Bot ping will be higher than usual, and it may not be as stable as a VPS or hosting service.

Setting up Termux

1. Update dependencies by running the following command:

   apt command

   apt update && apt upgrade

2. Install node.js

   node.js installation

   pkg install nodejs-lts

3. Install CLI

   CLI installation

   npm install -g @akarui/aoi.cli

After doing those steps, we’re ready to get started!

Running CLI

To create our project easily and quickly, we will use the CLI. To do this, run the following command:

Creating a project

aoijs create --dir ./aoijs

This will create a new project in the aoijs directory and install all needed packages for us, wait for it to finish.

Editing Files

Once the project is created, you can edit the files in the aoijs directory using your favorite text editor. You can use nano, vim, or vi to edit the files.

Editing files

cd aoijs
nano index.js

This will open the built-in text editor, nano, where you can edit the index.js file.

Add your Discord Bot token and your prefix to the file, then save it by pressing Ctrl + O, ENTER and exit by pressing Ctrl + X.

Do the same for your commands as you did with your index.js file.
