1. Installation - ghostselfbot/ghost GitHub Wiki

If you're using a Windows machine or an M chip Mac then you can use the pre-built binaries available on release. This guide is for how to run Ghost from source code. Ghost requires Python 3.10+ installed!

Warning

Using Ghost is against Discord's TOS and can result in account termination! To avoid termination, do not use any commands in bigger servers especially ones moderated by Discord staff and do not use any of the abuse commands. I do not take any responsibility for the actions that may be caused by using Ghost. Please use with caution!

1. Clone the repository

Open your terminal or command prompt and run:

git clone https://github.com/ghostselfbot/ghost
cd ghost

2. Set-up a Python virtual environment

Creating a virtual environment ensures Ghost runs in its own isolated Python environment.

Windows

py -m venv .venv
.venv\Scripts\activate

Linux & macOS

python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate

Note

If python, python3 or py isn't recognized, make sure Python 3.10+ is installed and added to your system PATH.

3. Install required dependencies

After activating your virtual environment, install the required packages:

pip install -r requirements.txt

4. Run Ghost!

Now you're ready to launch Ghost:

python3 ghost.py

Or on Windows:

py ghost.py
