Automated welcome message(s) for new users. Automation of some moderation/censorship (seen in mee6 bot). Leveling mechanic, connected to some “currency” to buy new levels (seen in the mee6 bot). “rooms command” - returned the list of rooms available from FCC (?). “wiki command” - returned a link to the wiki itself. “find command” - searched the wiki for a given string. 
“magic-8 ball” - randomly returns a “magic-8 ball” string. Give “brownie points” for thanking users (primary feature from gitter-bot version) - this feature will not be in the new one due to it being a source of spam and “gaming” the system. If you have a feature idea for the bot that isn’t already mentioned please post your suggestion This topic should be used to discuss the features and development of a new Discord camperbot, that will be the new version of the gitter bot (linked above). If you've got a knack for JSON application-building or HTTP POST requests and want to customize your own webhooks, you can dig up some more information in our developer docs.FreeCodeCamp recently created an official discord server (here is the announcement), and a few members would like to have a new version of the gitter bot (camperbot) that was featured on the gitter chat. In the next section, you can choose to customize what kind of events trigger webhook messages.Ĭlick the last "Add webhook" button beneath the event notifications customization option, and you're all set! Pushing any updates in the repo (including editing the readme file) will show up in your text channel:Īnd you're all set! GitHub is just one example of an integration that can post messages via webhook. Discord's webhook format really likes JSON. For content type, stick with application/json. In addition to the URL, you have some more GitHub-specific options to choose from. To make the webhook display messages properly, it's really really really REALLY really important that you append '/github' at the end of it. Once you've selected the repo, go into the Settings > Webhooks menuĪnd then click the "Add webhook" button, and enter the Discord-generated URL in the "Payload URL" blank. Add the webhook URL into your GitHub repo settingsĬhoose the repository that you'd like to get updates from in your Discord server. Therefore, I'll grab the webhook URL for this channel by pressing the Copy Webhook URL button:Ģ. In my server, I've created a text channel labeled #general-chat and I want my repo updates to post messages here! Get the webhook URL for the server/channel you want to receive messages: You can use Discord's webhooks to send any code merge or push updates in a repository of yours into a text channel in your server.ġ. Since webhooks can't really function on their own and need to be linked to another website to function as intended, I figured it'd be best to include a sample integration for any of you GitHub enthusiasts and code-pushers. Quick Example: GitHub Webhook Integration You now have your own handy URL / pneumatic tube schoomp-er that you can link to more websites to receive messages from. Name your Webhook: Good for distinguishing multiple webhooks for multiple different services.
Choose what channel the Webhook posts to: By selecting the desired text channel in the dropdown menu.Edit the avatar: By clicking the avatar next to the Name in the top left.Click the " Create Webhook" button to create a new webhook!.Open your Server Settings and head into the Integrations tab:.With that in mind, if you want to update your Discord server with GitHub commits and pull requests or track analytics from DataDog or anything similar, here's how!
Here's a little handy reference list: Can use webhooks: Some services and websites are built to easily incorporate webhooks and send messages outwards, but some aren't. While everyone absolutely loves pneumatic tubes (100% true), it's important to note that webhooks require another website to use (though programming-inclined users can make their own tube schoomper themselves). Think of them as one of those fancy pneumatic tube things you used to love sending money into at a bank and watch disappear, but instead of never seeing your money again, you're actually sending messages into Discord from another platform.īy creating a webhook endpoint in your server, you'll generate a Webhook URL that you can drop into a number of different other services to link the two. Discord's built in Webhooks function as an easy way to get automated messages and data updates sent to a text channel in your server.
