A small library for building Discord messages.

Installation

composer require more-cores/discord-message-builder:^4.0

Usage

Using webhooks (they have higher rate limits):

$message = new WebhookMessage();
$message->setContent($content);

$embed = new Embed();
$embed->setTitle($title);
$embed->setDescription($description);
$embed->setUrl($url);
$embed->setTimestamp($dateTime);
$embed->setColor($color);
$message->addEmbed($embed);

$message->toJson(); // valid json ready to be sent to Discord via a Webhook

Or using standard messaging:

$message = new Message();
$message->setContent($content);
$message->setEmbed($embed);

Mentioning

Both Message and WebhookMessage offer the ability to mention roles.

// appends the mention to the previously set content.  Setting the content again overrides mentions
$message->mention($roleId);

$message->isMentioned($roleId);
$message->hasMentions();

Author

// define an embed author using shorthand
$embed->setAuthor($name);

// and optionally specify specific attributes
$embed->setAuthor($name, $url);

// define an embed author by object
$author = new Author();
$author->setName($name);
$embed->setAuthor($author);

Fields

// define an embed video using shorthand
$embed->addField($fieldName, $fieldValue);

// and optionally specify whether it's inline (default to false)
$embed->addField($fieldName, $fieldValue, $inline = true);

// define an embed field by object
$field = new Field();
$field->setName($name);
$field->setValue($value);
$embed->setVideo($field);

Image

$embed->setImageUrl($imageUrl);

Thumbnail

$embed->setThumbnailUrl($thumbnailUrl);

Footer

// define an embed footer using shorthand
$embed->setFooter($text, $iconUrl);

// and optionally specify  specific attributes
$embed->setFooter($urlToImage, $width, $height);

// define an embed thumbnail by object
$thumbnail = new Thumbnail();
$thumbnail->setText($text);
$thumbnail->setUrl($urlToImage);
$embed->setFooter($thumbnail);
