Configuring Lightning

Lightning is configured using a lightning.toml, file. This file is used to configure the Lightning instance, including the database and plugins.

Example

prefix = "!"
error_url = "https://discord.com/api/webhooks/your_webhook_id/your_webhook_token"

[database]
type = 'postgres'
config = 'postgresql://server@localhost:5432/lightning'

[[plugins]]
plugin = "jsr:@lightning/discord@0.8.0-alpha.1"
config.token = "your_bot_token"

Properties

Prefix

The prefix used for commands. This is optional, and defaults to !, but must be a string.

Error URL

The error URL is a Discord-compatible webhook URL for error logging. This is optional, but recommended. If you do not provide a URL, errors will only be logged to the console.

Database

The database object is used to configure the database used by Lightning. This is required, and must be a valid database configuration. See configuring a database

Plugins

The plugins array is used to configure the plugins used by Lightning. This is required, and should contain at least one plugin. See plugins for more information.
