Installation

1. Get the code and install dependencies

git clone https://github.com/your-repo/ticket-nexus.git
cd ticket-nexus
npm install

2. Create your .env

Copy .env.example to .env and fill in at least:

DISCORD_TOKEN=your-bot-token
CLIENT_ID=your-application-id
DB_TYPE=sqlite

Keep the token in .env only — it is gitignored. Every other variable is covered in Environment Variables.

3. Register the slash commands

npm run deploy

Re-run this whenever commands change (for example after updating to a version that adds a command option).

4. Start the bot

npm start

5. Invite the bot

Invite the bot to your server with the permissions listed in Requirements, then continue to the Quick Start.
