Basic Setup
To start using KawaLink, you need to initialize the Manager and define your Lavalink nodes.
Step 1: Initialize Manager
Create a new instance of the Manager and provide the necessary options.
const{ Manager } =require("kawalink");client.manager =newManager({nodes: [{host:"localhost",port: 2333,password:"youshallnotpass",secure:false,}],send: (id, payload) => {constguild = client.guilds.cache.get(id);if(guild) guild.shard.send(payload);}});
Step 2: Connect to Nodes
Call the `init` method once your client is ready to start connecting to your Lavalink nodes.
client.once("ready", () => {client.manager.init(client.user.id);console.log(`Logged in as ${client.user.tag}`);});
Step 3: Handle Raw Events
KawaLink needs to listen to raw voice events from Discord to handle voice connections properly.
client.on("raw", (d) => client.manager.updateVoiceState(d));
