Setting Up a Discord Bot

To use discollama, you'll need a Discord bot token. Follow these steps to set one up:

1. Create a Discord account: If you don’t already have a Discord account, create one at Discord's registration page.
2. Create a new application: Visit the Discord Developer Portal, click on "New Application", and give it a name.
3. Create a Bot User: In your application, navigate to the “Bot” tab and click "Add Bot".
4. Get your Bot Token: Under the bot section, find the “Token” and click "Copy". This is your DISCORD_TOKEN which you'll use later. Keep this token private!
5. Invite Bot to Server: In the “OAuth2” tab, under “Scopes”, select “bot”. Choose the permissions your bot needs and use the generated URL to invite your bot to your Discord server.

Installation and Running discollama

1. Clone the Repository: First, clone the discollama repository from GitHub.

   git clone https://github.com/mxyng/discollama.git
   cd discollama
   

2. Setup Environment Variables: Create a .env file in the root directory and add your Discord token.

   echo DISCORD_TOKEN=your_discord_bot_token > .env
   

3. Running the Bot: Use Docker Compose to build and run the bot.

   docker compose up
   

   This command builds the Docker image and starts the discollama bot in a Docker container.

Note: Ensure your OLLAMA_HOST is set correctly in the compose.yaml if you are deploying on a network other than localhost.

Activating the Bot

Once discollama is running, you can interact with it in your Discord server. Just mention the bot in a message to start a new conversation, or reply to its messages to continue an ongoing conversation.
