To contribute an update to an existing component or create a new component, create a PR on GitHub. If you're new to Pipedream component development, you can start with quickstarts for trigger span and action development, and then review the component API reference.

Trigger#

New Message (Instant) on Discord

Description:Emit new event for each message posted to one or more channels in a Discord server

Version:1.0.3

Key:discord-new-message

View on GitHub

Discord Overview#

The Pipedream Discord app enables you to build event-driven workflows that interact with the Discord API. When you authorize the Pipedream app's access to your guilds, you can use Pipedream workflows to perform common Discord actions, or write your own code against the Discord API.

Trigger Code#

import discord from "../../discord.app.mjs";
import sampleEmit from "./test-event.mjs";

export default {
  type: "source",
  key: "discord-new-message",
  name: "New Message (Instant)",
  description: "Emit new event for each message posted to one or more channels in a Discord server",
  version: "1.0.3",

  dedupe: "unique",
  props: {
    discord,
    channels: {
      type: "$.discord.channel[]",
      appProp: "discord",
      label: "Channels",
      description: "Select the channel(s) you'd like to be notified for",
    },
    // eslint-disable-next-line pipedream/props-label,pipedream/props-description
    discordApphook: {
      type: "$.interface.apphook",
      appProp: "discord",
      async eventNames() {
        return this.channels || [];
      },
    },
  },
  async run(event) {
    if (event.guildID != this.discord.$auth.guild_id) {
      return;
    }
    this.$emit(event, {
      id: event.id,
    });
  },
  sampleEmit,
};

Trigger Configuration#

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI and CLI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
Discord	`discord`	`app`	This component uses the Discord app.
Channels	`channels`	`$.discord.channel[]`	Select the channel(s) you'd like to be notified for
	`discordApphook`	`$.interface.apphook`

Trigger Authentication#

Discord uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your Discord account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Discord and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any Discord API.

Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:

About Discord#

Use this app to create a Discord source that emits messages from your guild to a Pipedream workflow.

Action#

Create a Usage Record on Stripe

Description:With metered billing, you charge your customers based on their consumption of your service during the billing cycle, instead of explicitly setting quantities. Use this action to create a usage record for metered billing. [See the docs](https://stripe.com/docs/api/usage_records/create) for more information

Version:0.1.0

Stripe Overview#

The Stripe API is a powerful tool for managing online payments, subscriptions, and invoices. With Pipedream, you can leverage this API to automate payment processing, monitor transactions, and sync billing data with other services. Pipedream's no-code platform allows for quick integration and creation of serverless workflows that react to Stripe events in real-time. For instance, you might automatically update customer records, send personalized emails after successful payments, or escalate failed transactions to your support team.
