Discord Bot Overview#

The Discord Bot API unlocks the power to interact with Discord users and channels programmatically, making it possible to automate messages, manage servers, and integrate with other services. With Pipedream's serverless platform, you can create complex workflows that respond to events in Discord, process data, and trigger actions in other apps. This opens up opportunities for community engagement, content moderation, analytics, and more, without the overhead of managing infrastructure.

Trigger Code#

import { DEFAULT_POLLING_SOURCE_TIMER_INTERVAL } from "@pipedream/platform";
import common from "../common.mjs";

export default {
  ...common,
  key: "discord_bot-new-guild-member",
  name: "New Guild Member",
  description: "Emit new event for every member added to a guild. [See docs here](https://discord.com/developers/docs/resources/guild#list-guild-members)",
  type: "source",
  dedupe: "unique",
  version: "0.1.4",
  props: {
    ...common.props,
    db: "$.service.db",
    timer: {
      type: "$.interface.timer",
      default: {
        intervalSeconds: DEFAULT_POLLING_SOURCE_TIMER_INTERVAL,
      },
    },
  },
  async run({ $ }) {
    const { guildId } = this;
    const params = {
      limit: 100,
      after: this._getLastMemberID(),
    };

    while (true) {
      const members = await this.discord.getGuildMembers({
        $,
        guildId,
        params,
      });

      if (members.length === 0) {
        return;
      }

      for (const member of members) {
        const {
          user,
          joined_at: joinedAt,
        } = member;

        params.after = user.id;
        if (user.bot) continue;

        this.$emit(member, {
          summary: `New member: ${user.username}`,
          id: user.id,
          ts: Date.parse(joinedAt),
        });
      }

      this._setLastMemberID(params.after);
    }
  },
};

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 Bot	`discord`	`app`	This component uses the Discord Bot app.
Guild	`guildId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
	`timer`	`$.interface.timer`

Trigger Authentication#

Discord Bot uses API keys for authentication. When you connect your Discord Bot account, Pipedream securely stores the keys so you can easily authenticate to Discord Bot APIs in both code and no-code steps.

This app allows you to use the Discord API using your own Discord bot. If you don't want to use a custom bot, and you just need to use the Discord API, exit this screen and use the Discord app, instead.

If you want to use your own Discord bot, but haven't created one yet, see these instructions or watch this video. You'll need to add this bot to your server(s) to make successful API requests.

Once you've created your bot, you'll find the Bot token within the Bot section of your app. Enter that token below.

QStash Overview#

QStash API offers a secure, scalable, and simple way to manage message queues and defer tasks. Using this API, you can enqueue messages, schedule tasks to run after a delay, and ensure that tasks are executed exactly once, leveraging the power of serverless architecture. With Pipedream's ability to connect to a multitude of services, you can build complex workflows that trigger actions in other apps based on events in QStash, allowing you to automate cross-application business processes with ease.
