Requirements

What requirements your Bot needs, in order to work!

1. You need a working Lavalink Server (v4)

   • The Lavalink Server must be accessable:

     • Make sure the Firewall allows you to connect

     • Make sure the Lavalink version is at least beta v4 or higher

   • Guides:

     • Official Lavalink Getting Started Docs

     • My Lavalink Tutorial

2. Your Discord Bot needs the following Intents:

   • Guilds: 1 << 0 (1)

   • GuildVoiceStates: 1 << 7 (128)

3. On the Manager (Client):

   • Provide the right node-options in the Manager (required)

     • Provide the right authorization (aka password)

     • Provide the right port

     • Provide the right host (ip / domain-name)

   • Make sure to initalize the manager (either on bot-ready event / right on boot)

     • lavalinkManager.init(client.user);

   • Make sure to listen to Bot-Ready events (JSON data)

     • bot.on("raw", payload => lavalinkManager.sendRawData(payload));

All of those are the minimum requirements, to get started using lavalink-client, and roughly cover any other lavalink clients for any language(s)
