How to install and run the Uyn BOT:

I. Configure the PHP and MySQL server

• Step 1: Download UynServer and extract it into an empty folder.
• Step 2: Upload all the PHP files into any PHP servers or hostings that you like, make sure that your hosting isn't being API rate limited.
• Step 3: Configure the following variables in the Config.php file:

$servername = "<your MySQL server URL>";
$username = "<your MySQL username>";
$password = "<your MySQL password>";
$dbname = "<your MySQL database name>";
$server_token = "<your secret token>";

• Step 4: After that, import the UynServer.sql file into your MySQL Control Panel. If you're using phpMyAdmin, select your database, go to the Import section, select the UynServer.sql file and import it.

• Step 5: Run the PHP and MySQL server.

II. Configure the Node.JS BOT server

If you're using Node.JS:

• Step 1: Download the Uyn source code or clone this repository.
• Step 2: Create a file called .env in the same folder as the BOT folder and put these lines into the file:

BOT_TOKEN=<your BOT token here>
php_server_url=<your PHP server URL>
php_server_token=<your PHP server token as configured above>
tenor_api_key=<your Tenor API key>

• Step 3: Go to the config.json file and configure these variables:

{
    "prefix": "<your BOT prefix>",
    "ownerId": ["<your Discord ID>", "<second developer's Discord ID>"],
    "currency": "<your BOT currency name>"
}

• Step 4: Run the npm install command to install all the necessary dependencies.
• Step 5: After that, run the node index.js command to start the BOT.

If you're using Heroku:

• Step 1: Download the Uyn source code or clone this repository.
• Step 2: Configure the config.json file as above:

{
    "prefix": "<your BOT prefix>",
    "ownerId": ["<your Discord ID>", "<second developer's Discord ID>"],
    "currency": "<your BOT currency name>"
}

• Step 3: Create these new Config Variables in the Settings -> Config Vars section:

  • BOT_TOKEN with your Discord BOT token.
  • php_server_url with your PHP server URL. Make sure that you used a domain, not localhost because you know, Heroku can't get it as well.
  • php_server_token with your secret token as configured in your PHP server.
  • tenor_api_key with your Tenor API Key.

• Step 4: Deploy the entire code into your Heroku app. You can use the Heroku CLI or deploy the code from your GitHub repository.

• Step 5: Make sure that you turned on the web dyno on the Resources tab. If you want to use the worker dyno instead to run it 24/7 (and you needn't to use the webpage), you can change this thing in the Procfile section:

web: node index.js

​ into:

worker: node index.js
