I used Code a Discord Bot with Python - Host for Free in the Cloud - YouTube from Beau Carnes and I was wondering how to host it locally.
Hey nickmg,
welcome to the FreeCodeCamp community.
judging by the example that they have on their site:
import discord
client = discord.Client()
@client.event
async def on_ready():
print('We have logged in as {0.user}'.format(client))
@client.event
async def on_message(message):
if message.author == client.user:
return
if message.content.startswith('$hello'):
await message.channel.send('Hello!')
client.run('your token here')
You should be able to put the code into a python file e.g. “my_bot.py” and run it locally.
best
