how to make this into a embed message with webhook

SendDiscordWebhook(true, string.Format("{0} Was Killed By {1} And Now Has {2} Death(s)!", kill_info[0], ReplaceDeathText(kill_info[1], replacements), new PlayerDatabase().GetDeathsByDisplayName(kill_info[0])));

Idk, what Discord library are you using? It should have some Embed class you can send instead of a string (also, use $interpolation instead of format)

MODiX•10mo ago

String interpolation is the preferred way of building strings in C#. It is easier to read than concatenation. For example:

var foo = 1;
var bar = 2;
Console.WriteLine("foo is equal to: " + foo + " and bar is equal to: " + bar);

var foo = 1;
var bar = 2;
Console.WriteLine("foo is equal to: " + foo + " and bar is equal to: " + bar);

can be written as:

var foo = 1;
var bar = 2;
Console.WriteLine($"foo is equal to: {foo} and bar is equal to: {bar}");

var foo = 1;
var bar = 2;
Console.WriteLine($"foo is equal to: {foo} and bar is equal to: {bar}");

Idk, what Discord library are you using?

            }
        }

aint using a discord library

Angius•10mo ago

I see, yes Give me a moment

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

thanks brother im new to the whole discord shit lolol

Angius•10mo ago

So, first we need to hit up the docs to see what an embed object is: https://discord.com/developers/docs/resources/channel#embed-object And how to execute webhooks: https://discord.com/developers/docs/resources/webhook#execute-webhook

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

yeah i was looking at these already

Angius•10mo ago

Now we know we need to send JSON data that looks like

{
  "embeds": [
    {
      "title": "My Cool Embed",
      "description": "The coolest one",
      "color": 0xFF0000
    }
  ]
}

{
  "embeds": [
    {
      "title": "My Cool Embed",
      "description": "The coolest one",
      "color": 0xFF0000
    }
  ]
}

Easiest way, is to make classes (or records) that represent this structure, create those objects, serialize it to JSON, and send that

record WebhookMessage(Embed[] Embeds);
record Embed(string Title, string Description, int Color);

record WebhookMessage(Embed[] Embeds);
record Embed(string Title, string Description, int Color);

var data = new WebhookMessage(new Embed[]{
  new("My Cool Embed", "The coolest one", 0xFF0000),
});

using var client = new HttpClient();
var response = await client.PostAsJsonAsync(url, data);

var data = new WebhookMessage(new Embed[]{
  new("My Cool Embed", "The coolest one", 0xFF0000),
});

using var client = new HttpClient();
var response = await client.PostAsJsonAsync(url, data);

(notice my use of HttpClient, since WebClient is long since deprecated)

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

yeah i dont understand how i would make what i have into a embed lol

Angius•10mo ago

private static readonly _client = new HttpClient();

static async Task SendDiscordWebhook(bool killfeed, string message)
{
    var data = new WebhookMessage(new Embed[]{
        new("Your Killfeed", message, 0xFF0000),
    });

    var response = await _client.PostAsJsonAsync(url, data);
}

private static readonly _client = new HttpClient();

static async Task SendDiscordWebhook(bool killfeed, string message)
{
    var data = new WebhookMessage(new Embed[]{
        new("Your Killfeed", message, 0xFF0000),
    });

    var response = await _client.PostAsJsonAsync(url, data);
}

Or, well, any other data you want to include

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

yeah im losted nvm lol just gonna pay someone a dev or someshit to covert it to embed lol so i can see how its done

Angius•10mo ago

What you send to a webhook is a JSON payload Whether it's a plain message, an embed, or anything else Right now, in your code, you're using a very 1998 way of sending a plain message For something more complex, like an embed object, it's better to use... an object And serialize it

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

would rather just have someone covert it for me to embed and etc lool cuz this shit got me lost asf

Angius•10mo ago

Sure, if you'd rather pay

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

yeah i will pay idc lolol

Angius•10mo ago

I prefer learning, but to each their own

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

yeah im lost asf tho how to chnge it all to make it okr work

Angius•10mo ago

Instead of sending a simple "unga killed bunga" string, you need to send a properly structured JSON string like "{"embeds:[{"title":"title","description":"desc","color":18283}]"}" That's the change

if i wanted to change this to embed could you show me a full exmaple of this one so ik what i should be doing and changing and etc

Changing your SendDiscordWebhook message to this

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

 static void SendDiscordWebhookItem(string message)
 {
     ServicePointManager.SecurityProtocol = SecurityProtocolType.Tls12 | SecurityProtocolType.Tls11 | SecurityProtocolType.Tls;
     Settings = Settings.Read();
     using (var client = new WebClient())
     {
         var data = new NameValueCollection();
         data["content"] = message;
         var response = client.UploadValues(Settings.ItemWebhookUrl, "POST", data);
         string responseText = Encoding.UTF8.GetString(response);
     }
 }

 static void SendDiscordWebhookItem(string message)
 {
     ServicePointManager.SecurityProtocol = SecurityProtocolType.Tls12 | SecurityProtocolType.Tls11 | SecurityProtocolType.Tls;
     Settings = Settings.Read();
     using (var client = new WebClient())
     {
         var data = new NameValueCollection();
         data["content"] = message;
         var response = client.UploadValues(Settings.ItemWebhookUrl, "POST", data);
         string responseText = Encoding.UTF8.GetString(response);
     }
 }

so i would full on change this? to what you sent me

Angius•10mo ago

Or, let's make it more understandable maybe

class WebhookMessage
{
    public required Embed[] Embeds { get; init; }
}
class Embed
{

    public required string Title { get; init; }
    public required string Message { get; init; }
    public required int color { get; init; }
}

class WebhookMessage
{
    public required Embed[] Embeds { get; init; }
}
class Embed
{

    public required string Title { get; init; }
    public required string Message { get; init; }
    public required int color { get; init; }
}

class DiscordSenderOrWhatever
{
    private static readonly _client = new HttpClient();

    static async Task SendDiscordWebhook(bool killfeed, string title, string message)
    {
        var data = new WebhookMessage {
            Embeds = new[]{
                new Embed {
                    Title = title,
                    Message = message,
                    Color = 0xFF0000 // red
                }
            }
        };

        var response = await _client.PostAsJsonAsync(url, data);
    }
}

class DiscordSenderOrWhatever
{
    private static readonly _client = new HttpClient();

    static async Task SendDiscordWebhook(bool killfeed, string title, string message)
    {
        var data = new WebhookMessage {
            Embeds = new[]{
                new Embed {
                    Title = title,
                    Message = message,
                    Color = 0xFF0000 // red
                }
            }
        };

        var response = await _client.PostAsJsonAsync(url, data);
    }
}

To this method you would pass whatever else you want to be a part of the embed And to the Embed class you would add whatever other properties you need According to the Discord documentation HttpClient is used instead of WebClient because WebClient is deprecated And we only use a single static instance of it, because creating new clients can lead to issues (port exhaustion) So we want to reuse it Then we use PostAsJsonAsync(), a convenience method that automatically serializes the data we send into a JSON string and sends it It also sets appropriate headers

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

so i want something like this

Angius•10mo ago

Yes, that would describe your message structure

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

do i need a library ? to add

Angius•10mo ago

To add what?

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

cuz i see alot of the red lnes

Angius•10mo ago

Yeah, idk why Where did you place the code? And what do the errors say?

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

under my form1 with all my other classes

Angius•10mo ago

Ah, huh, I would guess you're using an outdated version of .NET? Remove the required then and turn init into set

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

okay now what

Angius•10mo ago

Now look at the rest of my code Admittedly, I haven't worked with Winforms or with outdated versions of .NET for quite a while, so it might not 100% work either

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

Angius•10mo ago

And the errors this time are?

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

Angius•10mo ago

Ah, whoops

private static readonly HttpClient _client = new HttpClient();

private static readonly HttpClient _client = new HttpClient();

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

Angius•10mo ago

And, yeah, you supply the URL Your webhook URL to be precise

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

okay so wait i have it so you put the webhook inside another file a config file

Angius•10mo ago

Yeah, it would be best to not hardcode it

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

i have it in a config file

Angius•10mo ago

Cool

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

config.json

Angius•10mo ago

Read it from the config and pass it as the url

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

var response = client.UploadValues(killfeed ? Settings.KillFeedWebhookUrl : Settings.EventWebhookUrl, "POST", data); this is what i got atm

var data = new NameValueCollection();
data["content"] = string.Format("{0}{1}", message, Environment.NewLine);
var response = client.UploadValues(killfeed ? Settings.KillFeedWebhookUrl : Settings.EventWebhookUrl, "POST", data);
string responseText = Encoding.UTF8.GetString(response);

var data = new NameValueCollection();
data["content"] = string.Format("{0}{1}", message, Environment.NewLine);
var response = client.UploadValues(killfeed ? Settings.KillFeedWebhookUrl : Settings.EventWebhookUrl, "POST", data);
string responseText = Encoding.UTF8.GetString(response);

Angius•10mo ago

Looks like killfeed ? Settings.KillFeedWebhookUrl : Settings.EventWebhookUrl would decide your webhook URL then

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

cs 

var response = await _client.PostAsJsonAsync(killfeed ? Settings.KillFeedWebhookUrl : Settings.EventWebhookUrl, data);

cs 

var response = await _client.PostAsJsonAsync(killfeed ? Settings.KillFeedWebhookUrl : Settings.EventWebhookUrl, data);

so it should look like this

Angius•10mo ago

Yeah

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

Angius•10mo ago

You need to reference System.Http.Json namespace, IIRC So add a using Sytem.Http.Json; reference at the top of the file Assuming your version of .NET has that

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

Angius•10mo ago

Sorry, System.Net.Http.Json

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

wrong lolol

Angius•10mo ago

Json not json

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

either works lol

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

Angius•10mo ago

Ah, yeah, guess it's not there In that case,

var response = await _client.PostAsJsonAsync(url, data);

var response = await _client.PostAsJsonAsync(url, data);

needs to become

var content = new StringContent(JsonSerializer.Serialize(data), Encoding.UTF8, "application/json");
var response = await _client.PostAsync(url, content);

var content = new StringContent(JsonSerializer.Serialize(data), Encoding.UTF8, "application/json");
var response = await _client.PostAsync(url, content);

Assuming... your version of .NET has System.Text.Json namespace

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

Angius•10mo ago

What's the error on Serialize?

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

Angius•10mo ago

I guess that's Newtonsoft...? That's why I diteched old versions long ago lmao Try SerializeObject? Instead of Serialize

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

nope

Angius•10mo ago

JsonConvert.SerializeObject(data)...?

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

that worked lol

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

Looks right ?

Angius•10mo ago

I think so, yeah

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

okay so this is done now what?

Angius•10mo ago

Now use this method to send an embed

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(Settings.KillFeedWebhookUrl) && Settings.DiscordKillFeed) {
    //kills logging (discord)
    string kill_ = packet.Message;

how would i make this work?

Angius•10mo ago

What doesn't work about it?

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

wait confused should i try it lol?

     static void SendDiscordWebhook(bool killfeed, string message)
     {
         ServicePointManager.SecurityProtocol = SecurityProtocolType.Tls12 | SecurityProtocolType.Tls11 | SecurityProtocolType.Tls;
         Settings = Settings.Read();
         using (var client = new WebClient())
         {
             var data = new NameValueCollection();
             data["content"] = string.Format("{0}{1}", message, Environment.NewLine);
             var response = client.UploadValues(killfeed ? Settings.KillFeedWebhookUrl : Settings.EventWebhookUrl, "POST", data);
             string responseText = Encoding.UTF8.GetString(response);
         }
     }

     static void SendDiscordWebhook(bool killfeed, string message)
     {
         ServicePointManager.SecurityProtocol = SecurityProtocolType.Tls12 | SecurityProtocolType.Tls11 | SecurityProtocolType.Tls;
         Settings = Settings.Read();
         using (var client = new WebClient())
         {
             var data = new NameValueCollection();
             data["content"] = string.Format("{0}{1}", message, Environment.NewLine);
             var response = client.UploadValues(killfeed ? Settings.KillFeedWebhookUrl : Settings.EventWebhookUrl, "POST", data);
             string responseText = Encoding.UTF8.GetString(response);
         }
     }

should i delete this one now? or what?

Angius•10mo ago

Keep it

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

Angius•10mo ago

I don't suppose you have version control set up, so keep it just in case

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

so how would i make the stuff use the embed now?

Angius•10mo ago

You would call the new method instead of the old one I guess make it static

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

like what would i replace? so ik

Angius•10mo ago

And use

await DiscordSenderOrWhatever.SendDiscordWebhook(bla, bla, bla)

await DiscordSenderOrWhatever.SendDiscordWebhook(bla, bla, bla)

Instead of your current method Ah, I don't suppose the calling method is asynchronous... you mentioned it's winforms, right? Fuck it then,

DiscordSenderOrWhatever.SendDiscordWebhook(bla, bla, bla).GetAwaiter().GetResult();

DiscordSenderOrWhatever.SendDiscordWebhook(bla, bla, bla).GetAwaiter().GetResult();

Sorry, I'm unwilling to delve into explaining what asynchronous code is and how to make it work with Winforms now lol

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

would i just do this?

Angius•10mo ago

For example, yes Ideally after solving the errors, whatever they are

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

SendDiscordWebhook(true, string.Format("**{0}** Was Killed By **{1}** And Now Has **{2}** Death(s)!", kill_info[0], ReplaceDeathText(kill_info[1], replacements), new PlayerDatabase().GetDeathsByDisplayName(kill_info[0])));

SendDiscordWebhook(true, string.Format("**{0}** Was Killed By **{1}** And Now Has **{2}** Death(s)!", kill_info[0], ReplaceDeathText(kill_info[1], replacements), new PlayerDatabase().GetDeathsByDisplayName(kill_info[0])));

this is where it sends it so how would i make it use the embed instea

Angius•10mo ago

What do you mean Like this

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

Angius•10mo ago

The method will take whatever you need to be inside of the embed Make sure you have the namespace referenced Right now, it will send an embed with title, description, and color If you need anything more in that embed, add it according to the Discord documentation And pass the required data

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

Angius•10mo ago

Ah, make sure the class is public And, ideally, have it in a separate file Nor as a nested class of the Form1 class

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

should i just make a full new class for the discordSenderOrwhatever

Angius•10mo ago

The convention is that every class has its own file, yes

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

fuck me

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

Angius•10mo ago

See how you had it done in your original method You had Settings = new Settings() right?

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

yeah

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

its not even locked lol

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

fixed one error goes into antoher one

Angius•10mo ago

Make the method public

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

it is lolol

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

Angius•10mo ago

What's the full error? Can you try quick fixes?

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

trying it now

Angius•10mo ago

Ah, well, if you say that a method takes some parameter, you need to give it that parameter C# 101 The method takes a bool a string with the title of the embed, and a string with the body of the embed

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

yeah that didnt work lol

Angius•10mo ago

Give it true, "whatever title", string.Format(...... as the parameters

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

wait wym im confused

EmbedDiscord.DiscordSenderOrWhatever.SendDiscordWebhook(true, string.Format("**{0}** Was Killed By **{1}** And Now Has **{2}** Death(s)!", kill_info[0], ReplaceDeathText(kill_info[1], replacements), new PlayerDatabase().GetDeathsByDisplayName(kill_info[0])));

EmbedDiscord.DiscordSenderOrWhatever.SendDiscordWebhook(true, string.Format("**{0}** Was Killed By **{1}** And Now Has **{2}** Death(s)!", kill_info[0], ReplaceDeathText(kill_info[1], replacements), new PlayerDatabase().GetDeathsByDisplayName(kill_info[0])));

this is what i got right now

Angius•10mo ago

Yeah, you give this method two parameters And it wants three parameters I... think you give it two, string.Format() kinda makes it unclear Two is not three

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

so what should i do lol confused asf

MODiX•10mo ago

Angius

Give it true, "whatever title", string.Format(...... as the parameters

Angius•10mo ago

Sure

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

trying now yeah nothing

Angius•10mo ago

I wonder if it's because Newtonsoft serializes the data with uppercase property names and Discord expects lowercase...

Angius•10mo ago

Take your data classes

Angius•10mo ago

And add [JsonProperty("name")] attributes to the properties, where name is the property name but lowercase So

[JsonProperty("title")]
public string Title { get; set; }

[JsonProperty("title")]
public string Title { get; set; }

for example

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

let me try that

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

so like this

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

Angius•10mo ago

Yeah, normally you would await it, but it has some further-reaching implications So use the .GetAwaiter().GetResult() hack I mentioned before

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

how would i add that tho? to the thing

Angius•10mo ago

EmbedDiscord.DiscordSenderOrWhatever.SendDiscordWebhook(true, "Unga Bunga Embed Title", string.Format("**{0}** Was Killed By **{1}** And Now Has **{2}** Death(s)!", kill_info[0], ReplaceDeathText(kill_info[1], replacements), new PlayerDatabase().GetDeathsByDisplayName(kill_info[0]))).GetAwaiter().GetResult();

EmbedDiscord.DiscordSenderOrWhatever.SendDiscordWebhook(true, "Unga Bunga Embed Title", string.Format("**{0}** Was Killed By **{1}** And Now Has **{2}** Death(s)!", kill_info[0], ReplaceDeathText(kill_info[1], replacements), new PlayerDatabase().GetDeathsByDisplayName(kill_info[0]))).GetAwaiter().GetResult();

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

nothing still

Angius•10mo ago

At this point I'd just use some Discord library, then

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

lolol

Angius•10mo ago

I... might actually whip up a Discord webhook library

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

this is probably one of the most confusing shit i done lolol

Angius•10mo ago

Once you understand what an API call is, what JSON is, and the basics of C#, it's not that hard But, yeah, you have to first learn those things Instead of jumping into deep water head-first

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

Literally just need these messssges to be sent as a embed not a basic plain message lmao yeah fuck this shit lol @ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ last qustion where can i find the stuff about embed messages like title,name,message,tumbnail and etc figured it all out btw had to re code the messages bs lol

Angius•10mo ago

On the Discord docs that I linked somewhere at the start

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

 type = "rich",
 color =  0xcd402a,
 title = ititle,
 message = imessage,
 thumbnail = new { url = "https://imgur.com/b6lGyF8.png" },
 footer = new { text =  DateTime.Now + " - Admin Pannel - " },

 type = "rich",
 color =  0xcd402a,
 title = ititle,
 message = imessage,
 thumbnail = new { url = "https://imgur.com/b6lGyF8.png" },
 footer = new { text =  DateTime.Now + " - Admin Pannel - " },

like what else can i add to this?

Angius•10mo ago

Anything mentioned in the docs

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

okay one last thing

 SendEmbedToWebhookEvents(Settings.EventWebhookUrl, "New Event", "**Chinook** Is Dropping A Crate", "").GetAwaiter().GetResult();

 SendEmbedToWebhookEvents(Settings.EventWebhookUrl, "New Event", "**Chinook** Is Dropping A Crate", "").GetAwaiter().GetResult();

how would i add the image link into this

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

so it looks like this

Angius•10mo ago

The same way you're passing the URL, the title, and so on Add a parameter, put that parameter in the webhook object, serialize, send

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

cs SendEmbedToWebhookEvents(Settings.EventWebhookUrl, "New Event", "**Chinook** Is Dropping A Crate", "", "https://i.imgur.com/CVGbaQu.png").GetAwaiter().GetResult();

cs SendEmbedToWebhookEvents(Settings.EventWebhookUrl, "New Event", "**Chinook** Is Dropping A Crate", "", "https://i.imgur.com/CVGbaQu.png").GetAwaiter().GetResult();

so like this? no lol

Angius•10mo ago

For example, yeah You will need to add the new parameter to your method first, though Again, C# 101

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

hmm wym?

Angius•10mo ago

What I said If you have a method

public void Foo(int a, string b){}

public void Foo(int a, string b){}

you can call it with two parameters

Foo(69, "nice");

Foo(69, "nice");

You can't call it with Foo(69, "nice", true, false, new Person(), new int[]{1, 2, 3})

I see the iimage parameter That is, presumably, the image link?

yeah should be if not its the one before that

Then, yeah, it looks fine

thats how i got it

Angius•10mo ago

Look at your parameters

string webhookUrl, string ititle, string idescription, string iimage, string content

string webhookUrl, string ititle, string idescription, string iimage, string content

string webhookUrl    Settings.EventWebhookUrl
string ititle        "New Event"
string idescription  "**Chinook** Is Dropping A Crate"
string iimage        ""
string content       "https://i.imgur.com/CVGbaQu.png"

string webhookUrl    Settings.EventWebhookUrl
string ititle        "New Event"
string idescription  "**Chinook** Is Dropping A Crate"
string iimage        ""
string content       "https://i.imgur.com/CVGbaQu.png"

Here's what you're passing to your method

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

ooo nope that broke for some reason hmm

SendEmbedToWebhookEvents(Settings.EventWebhookUrl, "New Event", "An **Air Drop** Is Inbound!", "https://i.imgur.com/CVGbaQu.png").GetAwaiter().GetResult();

SendEmbedToWebhookEvents(Settings.EventWebhookUrl, "New Event", "An **Air Drop** Is Inbound!", "https://i.imgur.com/CVGbaQu.png").GetAwaiter().GetResult();

almost got it all done yeah image broke it hmm

https://discord.com/developers/docs/resources/channel#embed-object

Angius•10mo ago

Notice how image is an object not just a string

Angius•10mo ago

Click the blue link and you see

TakingYourGFOP•10mo ago

what does that mean tho lol

Angius•10mo ago

That the image property of the embed is not a simple string It's a complex object It's not

{
    ...,
    "image": "https://images.com/image.png"
}

{
    ...,
    "image": "https://images.com/image.png"
}

but rather

{
    ...,
    "image": {
        "url": "https://images.com/image.png",
        "width": // optional
        // etc
    }
}

{
    ...,
