var discordBotList =
                    new AuthDiscordBotListApi(Config.BOT_CLIENT_ID,
                        System
                            .Environment
                            .GetEnvironmentVariable("UnoDblToken"));

var discordBotList =
                    new AuthDiscordBotListApi(Config.BOT_CLIENT_ID,
                        System
                            .Environment
                            .GetEnvironmentVariable("UnoDblToken"));

var discordBotList =
                    new AuthDiscordBotListApi(Config.BOT_CLIENT_ID,
                        System
                            .Environment
                            .GetEnvironmentVariable("UnoDblToken"));

var discordBotList =
                    new AuthDiscordBotListApi(Config.BOT_CLIENT_ID,
                        System
                            .Environment
                            .GetEnvironmentVariable("UnoDblToken"));

this is the code for discordBotList, would I put the bot token here or? cause im confused if u check the code I sent above

A

Angius•2/17/23, 6:11 PM

Idk

A

Angius•2/17/23, 6:11 PM

What do the docs of this particular library say?

0

0xDROIDOP•2/17/23, 6:11 PM

Im not sure I wasnt able to find anywhere the issue

0

0xDROIDOP•2/17/23, 6:11 PM

and its a discord bot so yea

A

Angius•2/17/23, 6:12 PM

Well,

System.Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("UnoDblToken")

System.Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("UnoDblToken")

System.Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("UnoDblToken")

System.Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("UnoDblToken") does attempt to get the token from env variables

Just not sure tbh

0xDROIDOP•2/17/23, 6:13 PM

where it could be coming from

A

Angius•2/17/23, 6:14 PM

From... environmental variables

0

0xDROIDOP•2/17/23, 6:14 PM

so where do I find the variables?

A

Angius•2/17/23, 6:14 PM

You can pass them in the launch config

A

Angius•2/17/23, 6:14 PM

Or you can set them globally in your system

A

Angius•2/17/23, 6:15 PM

Or you can set them temporarily for the current terminal session

?

A

Angius•2/17/23, 6:16 PM

What does this have to do with the token

0

0xDROIDOP•2/17/23, 6:16 PM

Obviously to start a bot you need to use the discord bot token no?

A

Angius•2/17/23, 6:16 PM

Or with environmental variables

A

Angius•2/17/23, 6:16 PM

Yeah?

A

Angius•2/17/23, 6:16 PM

And this code takes said token from an environmental variable

0

0xDROIDOP•2/17/23, 6:16 PM

ok

0

0xDROIDOP•2/17/23, 6:17 PM

How can Input the token manually or setup the env variable

A

Angius•2/17/23, 6:17 PM

If you're asking whether you can place this token somewhere else, then sure
