const config = require('config.json');
```ts
// bot.ts
const client = new vylbot.client(config);
import { CoreClient } from "vylbot-core";
const client = new CoreClient();
client.start();
```

### Writing Commands
The code below will reply to the user with 'PONG' when they type {PREFIX}ping
```ts
// Ping.ts
import { Command, ICommandContext } from "vylbot-core";
export class Ping extends Command {
constructor() {
super();
this._roles = [ "Moderator" ];
this._category = "General";
}
public override execute(context: ICommandContext) {
context.message.reply('PONG');
}
}
```
* **roles**: An array containing what roles the user needs in order to run the command.
* **category**: The category the role is part of, useful for categorising commands together in a help command.
The `context` parameter contains the following:
* **name**: The command name
* **args**: An array of arguments supplied with the command
* **message**: The Discord Message object for the command message sent
### Writing Events

import { Event } from "vylbot-core";
import { GuildMember } from "discord.js";
export class Moderation extends Event {
public override guildMemberAdd(member: GuildMember) {
console.log(`Member Joined: ${member.tag}`);
}
}
```
