Dashboard setup.

You can do this in 2 ways, with a custom domain or with your vps/server ip.

Dashboard with custom domain

With Nginx

Create a new file in /etc/nginx/sites-available

you can use whatever your favorite text editor, but I'll be using vim cause I'm used to it

Do vi /etc/nginx/sites-available/musicbot.conf Then enter this example config

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name example.com;

    location / {
        proxy_set_header   X-Forwarded-For $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header   Host $http_host;
        proxy_pass         http://127.0.0.1:3000;
    }
}

Replace example.com with your domain

[not done] With Apache

Dashboard with IP

  • open port 80, Then edit the botconfig.js and change the Port on line 5, change it to 80, Website line 18 to https://192.yourserverip.0.0

BangExample

  • Go to the Discord Developer Portal under the OAuth2 tab. Then put your server ip in this format http://yourip.yes.number.only/api/callback
