This example creates an application command with a name and description based on the locale of the user interacting with the bot. Once the command is created, it listens for an interaction (while connected to the Discord Gateway), then responds to the interaction accordingly. The bot waits until the program receives a signal to terminate, then disconnects from the Discord Gateway and deletes the created command. For more information about localization, read the Discord API Documentation.
Use this example to create localized commands for users.
You must create a Discord Application in the Discord Developer Portal to receive your Bot Token.
Assign an environment variable in the command line you will be running the program from.
set TOKEN=value
set APPID=value
export TOKEN=value
export APPID=value
NEVER SHOW YOUR TOKEN TO THE PUBLIC.
NOTE: Get the Application ID by enabling Developer Mode from the settings of your account, then right clicking your bot.
Use go build to build the executable binary. Use localization to run it from the command line.
