Setting Up API Keys

Discord Bot Token

1. Go to the Discord Developer Portal
2. Create a new application and add a bot to it
3. Copy the bot token and add it to your config.ts

OpenAI API Key

1. Sign up at OpenAI
2. Navigate to the API section and generate an API key
3. Add the key to your config.ts

Claude API Key

To use Claude as your AI model:

1. Go to the Anthropic AI website.
2. Sign up for an account or log in if you already have one.
3. Navigate to the API section in your account dashboard.
4. Generate a new API key.
5. Copy the API key and add it to your config.ts file under the claude.apiKey field.

Note: Anthropic may have specific requirements or a waitlist for API access. Check their current policies and follow their instructions to obtain API access.

Other API Keys

Follow similar processes for other services like Brave Search, Google Search, CoinAPI, etc. Refer to each service's documentation for specific instructions.

Running in Production

To run this application in a production environment, follow these steps:

1. Install production dependencies only:

   npm install --production
   

2. Build the project:

   npm run build
   

3. Start the application:

   npm start
   

The --production flag ensures that only dependencies listed in the "dependencies" section of package.json are installed, excluding devDependencies. This reduces the installation size and potential security risks in the production environment.

The build process uses tsup to compile and minify the TypeScript code. The production build is generated in the dist directory, with index.cjs as the main entry point.

Make sure to set up any necessary environment variables before running the application in production.

Development

• Run tests: npm test
• Run in watch mode: npm run test:watch
• Lint code: npm run lint
