Discord.Webhook 1.0.9

Discord.Webhook

Used for sending webhook messages to Discord using a Discord Webhook URL - Also completely dependency free!

Samples

Creating a WebhookObject

var webhookObject = new WebhookObject();

Building an embed object

webhookObject.AddEmbed(builder =>
{
	builder.WithTitle("Discord-Webhook lib")
		.WithDescription("Building embed with 'AddEmbed(Action<EmbedBuilder> embedBuilderFunction)'")
		.WithUrl("https://github.com/ToshiroZ/Discord-Webhook")
		.WithThumbnail("https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/wp-content/uploads/trump-mugshot-1.jpg")
		.WithColor(Colors.Magenta)
		.WithImage("https://i.imgur.com/ZGPxFN2.jpg")
		.AddField("New Field", "This is a new field")
		.WithFooter("DiscordUser",
			"https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/wp-content/uploads/trump-mugshot-1.jpg");
});

Sending a message

await new Webhook("my-webhook-url").SendAsync(webhookObject);

Sending a message with an avatar URL and username

await new Webhook("my-webhook-url", "username", "avatar url").SendAsync(webhookObject);

Sending a message to a thread

⚠️ Ensure that your webhook URL is targeting a forum channel, any other channel type will throw an exception!

Since v1.0.9, the library now supports threads, you can set your messages to be targeted to a thread.

await new Webhook("my-webhook-url", "username", "avatar url")
            .SendAsync(webhookObject);

Sending a message even easier

Since v1.0.9, you can send webhook messages easier by using a static method in the Webhook class called SendAsync This method is used to simplify the above call even further, although this is realistically only superior when you're only sending a single webhook message and not multiple calls.

await Webhook.SendAsync("my-webhook-url", webhookObject);

... and you can add an avatar URL, username, etc in the same way as before:

await Webhook.SendAsync("my-webhook-url", webhookObject, "username", "avatar url"); 
await Webhook.SendAsync("my-webhook-url", webhookObject, "username", "avatar url", "thread name");  // For threads

Result

Error handling

Since v1.0.9, the library now handles exceptions from Discord's API to allow for easier debugging and handling on an application-level. All exceptions thrown by Discord are handled with a DiscordWebhookException in the Discord.Webhook.Exceptions namespace. You can handle exceptions like this:

try 
{
            var webhookObject = new WebhookObject();
            webhookObject.AddEmbed(builder =>
            {
            	builder.WithTitle("Discord-Webhook lib")
            		.WithDescription("Building embed with 'AddEmbed(Action<EmbedBuilder> embedBuilderFunction)'")
            		.WithUrl("https://github.com/ToshiroZ/Discord-Webhook")
            		.WithThumbnail("https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/wp-content/uploads/trump-mugshot-1.jpg")
            		.WithColor(Colors.Magenta)
            		.WithImage("https://i.imgur.com/ZGPxFN2.jpg")
            		.AddField("New Field", "This is a new field")
            		.WithFooter("DiscordUser",
            			"https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/wp-content/uploads/trump-mugshot-1.jpg");
            });
            
            await new Webhook("my-webhook-url").SendAsync(webhookObject);
}
catch (DiscordWebhookException ex)
{
            Console.WriteLine($"Exception from Discord: {ex.Message}");
}
