Discord requirements

• Your own Discord server
• A text channel created within your server for your bot to write to (you will need the ID from this which you can get from turning on the developer setting in Discord then right clicking the channel)
• A Discord application and bot created at https://discord.com/developers/applications - I called mine kaspa-wallet-notifications

Setup

Create a .env file and copy/paste the contents of .env.sample into it to get started. The intention is for you to populate KASPA_WALLET_ADDRESS, DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN, and DISCORD_CHANNEL_ID with your own values.

DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN is the token from your application at https://discord.com/developers/applications -> your app -> in the Bot tab.

DISCORD_CHANNEL_ID requires right clicking the text channel you intend to use your bot and copying the ID.

Starting the Application

yarn install to install dependencies
yarn dev to run the server

If all of the .env file parameters are populated correctly, you should see logs related to your KAS balance in your console.
If a transaction occurs that changes your balance, your Discord channel should receive a message saying so. If that amount matches the current block reward, the app will assume you've solo mined a block and will give that detail.
