Dm A Specific Person

[NepXDNep]

Title says it all, would like to have this feature

[Bios-Marcel]

This could be done via a new command. I currently have no better idea.

Examples:

dm Marcel#7299
dm 264748158972723201

Since we can't search users, as discordgo doesn't support the endpoint and I haven't been able to figure it out myself yet, this will always work by User ID, but not by Username if the user is not in your cache :/

If a chat is already open, that can simply be reused, otherwise discordgo.UserChannelCreate needs to be invoked.

Hey. I'm doing it now, please assign me

Help Wanted:
When using cmd.session.UserChannelCreate (userID) twice, this function returns an empty channel.
Except for this issue, everything is ready.

[Bios-Marcel]

You aren't supposed to create one if it already exists. The discord client just calls Session#UserChannels first. I just checked that.

[Russia9]

When I create a channel using cmd.session.UserChannelCreate (userID), it is not recorded in Session#UserChannels. How can I do that?

[Bios-Marcel]

Are you testing with a bot account?

[Russia9]

No, with my main

[Bios-Marcel]

I checked out your branch and it works for me 🤷‍♂️ So I don't know what the problem could be

[Russia9]

Hi. Sorry for not responding for a long time. If I try now to enter the dm USER#ID command twice in my branch, after the second time there will be an empty dialog.

[Bios-Marcel]

I finally managed to properly add this without bugs I think :D

I updated the API for it to V8:
