## Installation
### Installing via NPM
You can use it with the following command:
```bash
npx mcp-discord --config ${DISCORD_TOKEN}
```
For more details, you can check out the [NPM Package](https://www.npmjs.com/package/mcp-discord).
### Installing via Smithery
To install mcp-discord automatically via [Smithery](https://smithery.ai/server/@barryyip0625/mcp-discord)
### Manual Installation
```bash
# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/barryyip0625/mcp-discord.git
cd mcp-discord
# Install dependencies
npm install

## Configuration
A Discord bot token is required for proper operation. The server supports two transport methods: stdio and streamable HTTP.
### Transport Methods
1. **stdio** (Default)
- Traditional stdio transport for basic usage
- Suitable for simple integrations
2. **streamable HTTP**
- HTTP-based transport for more advanced scenarios
- Supports stateless operation
- Configurable port number
### Configuration Options
You can provide configuration in two ways:
1. Environment variables:
```bash
DISCORD_TOKEN=your_discord_bot_token
```
2. Using command line arguments:
```bash
# For stdio transport (default)
node build/index.js --config "your_discord_bot_token"
# For streamable HTTP transport
node build/index.js --transport http --port 3000 --config "your_discord_bot_token"
```
