Documentation

Getting Started

Here is the code you will need to get started with discord-player. Then, you will be able to use client.player everywhere in your code!

const Discord = require("discord.js"),
client = new Discord.Client,
settings = {
    prefix: "!",
    token: "Your Discord Token"
};

const { Player } = require("discord-player");

// Create a new Player (you don't need any API Key)
const player = new Player(client);

// To easily access the player
client.player = player;

// add the trackStart event so when a song will be played this message will be sent
client.player.on("trackStart", (message, track) => message.channel.send(`Now playing ${track.title}...`))

client.once("ready", () => {
    console.log("I'm ready !");
});

client.on("message", async (message) => {

    const args = message.content.slice(settings.prefix.length).trim().split(/ +/g);
    const command = args.shift().toLowerCase();

    // !play Despacito
    // will play "Despacito" in the voice channel
    if(command === "play"){
        client.player.play(message, args[0]);
        // as we registered the event above, no need to send a success message here
    }

});

client.login(settings.token);

Supported websites

By default, discord-player supports YouTube, Spotify and SoundCloud streams only.

Optional dependencies

Discord Player provides an Extractor API that enables you to use your custom stream extractor with it. Some packages have been made by the community to add new features using this API.

@discord-player/extractor (optional)

Optional package that adds support for vimeo, reverbnation, facebook, attachment links and lyrics. You just need to install it using npm i --save @discord-player/extractor (discord-player will automatically detect and use it).

@discord-player/downloader (optional)

@discord-player/downloader is an optional package that brings support for +700 websites. The documentation is available here.
