Since cubed doesn't wanna host discord bots, this addon is really great for Minecraft -> discord if we ever wanna announce in-game events in the discord server e.g purchases, boosts, events etc.

You can also send a web request to an API which does this for you

zNotChill

but you cant do post requests

zNotChill

you'll need to use a 3rd party get api

Jeroeno_Boy

You don't really need post equests tho

zNotChill

for sending messages you do

Jeroeno_Boy

Oh you meant it like that, yeah just use 3rd party api

zNotChill

yes its so stupid, i made something similar - you send a get request with all the data then it POSTs the webhook

zNotCerq

most backend devs 100% love writing useless api endpoints just to forward get requests to post requests

zNotCerq

i should make another api that forwards get to post requests... and has discord webhook functionality!!!

Jeroeno_Boy

I was going to make a counter argument to what you just said, which would be a valid argument. But while writing it I realized that its better that this gets added

zNotChill

yeah but then you can never trust a 3rd party especially if you're giving them a token

Jeroeno_Boy

I assume the third party is yourself, and imo, a discord bot token like that isn't really that important. It's not like the bots will influence tens of thousands of guilds

zNotChill

the third party is most likely yourself, but even if the token wasnt important would you still want to give it to a 3rd party?

Jeroeno_Boy

Depends on the scale of the bot

zNotChill

true, but making a full GET/POST api for a discord bot is time consuming and probably not worth it when plugins already exist for it

Jeroeno_Boy

I know, but then we can also agrue about the use for skript if you want to do more complicated things like that, but thats not for this thread

MiniRascal

how do i do that

This should now also be possible by using reqn and manually constructing the body of the request. Seeing as post requests are now possible.

MiniRascal

yay!
