## 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 dont already have a Discord account, create one at [Discord's registration page](https://discord.com/register).
2. **Create a new application**: Visit the [Discord Developer Portal](https://discord.com/developers/applications), 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.
```

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.
