 The bot uses an environment file named `.env` to configure it. This file must be named exactly `.env` and placed in the same directory as `gpt3discord.py`. Within this file, you need to fill in your `OPENAI_TOKEN`, `DISCORD_TOKEN`, `DEBUG_SERVER`, and `DEBUG_CHANNEL`, and `ALLOWED_GUILDS` to get the bot to work. There are also many other configurable options, an example `.env` file is shown below.
