Lavalink Testbot

This is a minimalistic example of a bot using Lavalink. This example is based upon Lavalink-Client for Java.

https://github.com/FredBoat/Lavalink-Client

This uses Lavaplayer to load tracks rather than initially loading tracks via Lavalink. Non-JVM (Java) bots will need to query the /loadtracks endpoint.

Running the test bot

This guide assumes the following:

  • You have a Lavalink node already running
  • You have a Discord bot and its token
  • You have a shell in the same directory as this readme
  • You have Java 11 or newer. Check with java -version

Run this command. Gradle will download as needed, and will build and run the bot:

../gradlew run --args "YOUR_BOT_TOKEN ws://localhost:2333 youshallnotpass"

Replace token, host, and password as needed.

Replace ../gradlew with ../gradlew.bat if on Windows.

Using the test bot

Only one command is currently supported, and only the first or selected track of a playlist or search will be played. Example usages:
