Introduction to Discordeno

Discordeno is an advanced, lightweight, and scalable library for interacting with the Discord API. It provides a range of powerful features and tools to help developers build Discord bots with ease. In this article, we will explore a series of useful APIs provided by Discordeno, complete with code snippets and practical examples.

Basic Setup

 const { createBot } = require('discordeno');
const bot = createBot({
  token: 'YOUR_BOT_TOKEN',
  intents: ['GUILDS', 'GUILD_MESSAGES']
});
bot.start(); 

Listening to Events

One of the core functionalities of any Discord bot is to listen to various events. Here’s how you can listen to a messageCreate event:

 bot.events.on('messageCreate', (bot, message) => {
  console.log(`Message received: ${message.content}`);
}); 

Sending Messages

Sending messages is a key feature. Here’s how you can send a message to a specific channel:

 bot.helpers.sendMessage('CHANNEL_ID', {
  content: 'Hello, Discord!'
}); 

Managing Guilds

Discordeno allows you to manage guilds effectively:

 bot.helpers.createGuild({
  name: 'New Guild'
}); 

Fetching Information

You can fetch various types of information, such as messages:

 bot.helpers.getMessage('CHANNEL_ID', 'MESSAGE_ID')
  .then(message => console.log(message))
  .catch(console.error);

Embedding Rich Content

Create rich embedded content for a better user experience:

 bot.helpers.sendMessage('CHANNEL_ID', {
  embed: {
    title: 'Embed Title',
    description: 'This is an embedded message',
    color: 0x00FF00
  }
}); 

An Example App

Here’s a simple example app utilizing the APIs we discussed:

 const { createBot, GatewayIntents } = require('discordeno');
const bot = createBot({
  token: 'YOUR_BOT_TOKEN',
  intents: [GatewayIntents.GUILDS, GatewayIntents.GUILD_MESSAGES]
});
bot.events.on('ready', () => {
  console.log(`Logged in as ${bot.user.username}`);
});
bot.events.on('messageCreate', (bot, message) => {
  if (message.content === '!ping') {
    bot.helpers.sendMessage(message.channelId, {
      content: 'Pong!'
    });
  }
});
bot.helpers.sendMessage('SPECIFIC_CHANNEL_ID', {
  content: 'Bot is up and running!'
});
bot.start(); 

With these APIs, you can create a myriad of functionalities and tailor your bot to your specific needs. Dive deeper into Discordeno to unlock its full potential!
