+Embeds
+=======
+
+Embeds are special message that are formatted to embed rich content within. You may have ever sent a link to a server and
+seen one appear with a brief description and maybe an image or video.

++---------------------+----------------------+----------------------+---------------------+
+
+The examples above are just a few common samples of what you seen often around Discord, these are automatically generated 
+by discord based on the metadata from the linked sites but you don't need to remember any of this.
+
+Internally, an embed is represented with a JSON payload by the API. discord.py offers a 
+builder-esque interface over this payload to help make the process more straightforward and intuitive in Python.
+
+Let's take a look at a basic example of using the builder:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    import discord
+
+    embed = discord.Embed(
+        title = "Hello World",
+        description = "This is a description",
+        colour = discord.Colour.blurple()
+    )
+
+And then we can send it to a channel using the ``embed`` keyword-only argument:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    await channel.send(embed=embed)
+
+On Discord, this will look like:
+
+.. image:: /images/guide/topics/embeds/basic_embed.png
+    :scale: 50%
+
+Let's break down what we did.
+
+First, we imported the ``discord`` module. This is required to access the ``Embed`` class.
+
+Next, we created an instance of the ``Embed`` class. This is the object that will contain the basic fields of our embed.
+
+The ``title`` and ``description`` fields are pretty self-explanatory. The ``colour`` field is a bit more interesting.
+This field is used to set the colour of the left-hand side of the embed. We used the :meth:`discord.Colour.blurple()` classmethod on the 
+:class:`discord.Colour` class that discord.py provides to get the blurple colour. It can also be set to an integer
+representing a hexadecimal colour code like ``0x5865f2`` or ``5793266``.
+
+
+Instead of passing fields directly to ``Embed``, you can also set basic fields after construction, like so:  
+
+.. code-block:: python  
+
+    embed = discord.Embed()  
+    embed.title = "Hello World"  
+    embed.description = "This is a description"  
+    embed.colour = discord.Colour.blurple()  
+
+.. tip::  
+    
+    US English spellings can use the respective ``color`` and ``Color`` aliases instead.  
+
+.. note::
+    There are two other basic fields that we didn't show here, ``url`` and ``timestamp``. The ``url`` field is used to set the
+    URL that the title of the embed should be masked with. The ``timestamp`` field is used to set the timestamp of the embed. This
+    field takes a :class:`datetime.datetime` timezone-aware object, such as from :func:`utils.utcnow`.
+
+    Try adding these two fields to the embed the same way we did with the other fields and see what happens.
+
+Finally, we sent the embed to a channel. We used the ``embed`` keyword-only argument to do this. This argument takes an 
+instance of the ``Embed`` class which we created earlier and assigned to the ``embed`` variable.
+
+Fields
+-------
+
+Fields can be used to add subsections to an embed, each one contains two articles of information; a name and a value.
+
+Starting off with a few basic fields.
+
+Since embed fields need both a name and value, a field is added by calling :meth:`embed.add_field()<Embed.add_field>`:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    embed = discord.Embed(
+        title = "Weather in San Francisco, CA",
+        description = "Sunny with a High of 55F and a Low of 49F\nFeels like: 55F",
+        colour = discord.Colour.yellow()
+    )
+
+    embed.add_field(name="Precipitation", value="0%", inline=False)
+    embed.add_field(name="Wind", value="5 mph", inline=True)
+    embed.add_field(name="Humidity", value="96%")
+
+    await channel.send(embed=embed)	
+
+Let's see it on Discord:
+
+.. image:: /images/guide/topics/embeds/fields_embed.png
+    :scale: 50%
+
+
+Notice how how the fields are in a certain order, the ``Precipitation`` field is on the top and the other two are next to
+each other on the bottom. This is because of the ``inline`` argument. This argument takes either ``True`` or ``False`` to 
+determine whether or not the field should be on its own block. This is why the ``Precipitation`` field is on the top. 
+If the argument is not passed, it's always ``True``.
+
+
+Let's see what happens when we add a fourth field and don't pass the ``inline`` argument:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    embed = discord.Embed(
+        title = "Weather in San Francisco, CA",
+        description = "Sunny with a High of 55F and a Low of 49F\nFeels like: 55F",
+        colour = discord.Colour.yellow()
+    )
+
+    embed.add_field(name="Precipitation", value="0%", inline=False)
+    embed.add_field(name="Wind", value="5 mph", inline=True)
+    embed.add_field(name="Humidity", value="96%")
+    embed.add_field(
+        name="Fact about this location",
+        value="Golden Gate Park outstrips Central Park"
+    )
+
+    await channel.send(embed=embed)
+
+.. image:: /images/guide/topics/embeds/fields_embed_inline.png
+
+As you can see, the ``Fact about this location`` field was added next to the ``Humidity`` field. This is because we didn't 
+specify the ``ìnline`` argument. If you want to force a field to be on its own row, you can pass ``inline=False`` to 
+the ``add_field`` method. 
+
+Each row of fields can only contain a maximum of 3 fields, depending on the user's display size.
+
+.. note::
+
+    Fields should be displayed in the order they were added, but if you want to change the order, you can use 
+    the :meth:`embed.insert_field_at()<Embed.insert_field_at>` method to insert a field at a specific index or
+    :meth:`embed.set_field_at()<Embed.set_field_at>` to replace a field at a specific index.
+
+    Try using these methods to change the order of the fields in the embed.
+    
+    Remember that the index of the first field is 0, the second field is 1, and so on.
+
+Author & Footer
+----------------
+
+Let's quickly glance over the ``author`` and ``footer`` fields.
+
+The ``author`` field is a the top of the embed containing:
+
+- A name (``name=`` argument, required)
+- An icon URL (``icon_url=`` argument, optional)
+- A hyperlinked URL, masked by the name (``url=`` argument, optional)
+
+The ``footer`` field is at the bottom of the embed containing:
+
+- A text (``text=`` argument, required)
+- An icon URL (``icon_url=`` argument, optional)
+
+All arguments are keyword-only.
+
+Let's see an example of both:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    embed = discord.Embed(
+        title = "Weather in San Francisco, CA",
+        description = "Sunny with a High of 55F and a Low of 49F\nFeels like: 55F",
+        colour = discord.Colour.yellow()
+    )
+
+    embed.add_field(name="Precipitation", value="0%", inline=False)
+    embed.add_field(name="Wind", value="5 mph", inline=True)
+    embed.add_field(name="Humidity", value="96%")
+    embed.add_field(
+        name="Fact about this location",
+        value="Golden Gate Park outstrips Central Park"
+    )
+
+    embed.set_author(name=bot.user.name, icon_url=bot.user.display_avatar.url)
+    embed.set_footer(
+        text="Powered by OpenWeatherMap",
+        icon_url="https://openweathermap.org/themes/openweathermap/assets/vendor/owm/img/icons/logo_32x32.png"
+    )
+
+    await channel.send(embed=embed)
+
+.. image:: /images/guide/topics/embeds/author_footer_embed.png
+    :scale: 50%
+
+A breakdown of what we did, we set the ``author`` field to the bot's name and avatar URL and the ``footer``'s text to 
+"Powered by OpenWeatherMap" and ``icon_url`` to OpenWeatherMap's logo.
+
+Images
+-------
+
+There are two ways to add images to an embed:
+
+- As the embed's ``image``.
+- As the embed's ``thumbnail``.
+
+At the time of writing, bots cannot embed videos.
+
+We will add an `image of the Golden Gate Bridge`_ to the embed by calling :meth:`embed.set_image() <Embed.set_image>`:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    image_url = "https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/0c/GoldenGateBridge-001.jpg"
+    embed.set_image(url=image_url)
+
+.. _image of the Golden Gate Bridge: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Golden_Gate_Bridge#/media/File:GoldenGateBridge-001.jpg
+
+.. image:: /images/guide/topics/embeds/image_embed.png
+    :scale: 70%
+
+As seen above, when setting :attr:`Embed.image`, the provided URL will be displayed at the bottom of the embed.
+
+The alternative to this, is to set :attr:`Embed.thumbnail`, which would be displayed in the top right corner of the embed.
+
+Files
+------
+
+You may have noticed that we used URLs to for each of the images in the embeds above but what if we wanted to use a local file? 
+That's possible too, we can use the :class:`File` class and set the url fields to a special URI scheme that Discord provides - ``attachment://``.
+
+Let's set the thumbnail of the weather embed to a local file.
+
+First, we have to construct a :class:`File` object. The first argument is the file path, and the second is the name of the attachment that will be used to refer to it within Discord.
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    file = discord.File('./images/sunny_weather.png', 'thumbnail.png')
+
+.. warning::
+
+    The filename for these URLs must be ASCII alphanumeric with underscores, dashes, or dots. This is a Discord limitation.
+
+Next, we need to call :meth:`embed.set_thumbnail() <Embed.set_thumbnail>` to set the thumbnail.
+To refer to our attachment for the thumbnail, we will use a special URI scheme as discussed above.
+
+Since we called our file ``thumbnail.png``, we will set the ``url`` parameter to ``attachment://thumbnail.png``.
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    embed.set_thumbnail(url="attachment://thumbnail.png")
+
+And finally, we will send the embed with the ``file`` parameter set to our file.
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    await channel.send(file=file, embed=embed)
+
+It should look the same as before but now we are using a local file instead of a URL.
+
+More about this can be found at :ref:`local_image`
+
+
+Reading values off an embed
+----------------------------
+
+Now that we have constructed our embed, let's see how we can get the values from it if for example we get it from a :class:`Message`.
+
+Let's start by getting the title of the embed.
+
+We can do this by using the :attr:`Embed.title` attribute.
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    >>> print(embed.title)
+    'Weather in San Francisco, CA'
+
+That was easy!
+
+Now, let's get the footer text.
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    >>> print(embed.footer.text)
+    'Powered by OpenWeatherMap'
+
+But what if we remove the footer and try again?
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    >>> embed.remove_footer()
+    >>> print(embed.footer.text)
+    None
+
+As you can see, it returns ``None``, this is because attribute like ``author`` and ``footer`` return a special object that returns ``None`` when the attribute is not set.
+
+This is the same for all other attributes that got more than one value like :attr:`Embed.fields`, :attr:`Embed.image`, etc.
+
+Most of these attributes have more attributes compared to what we can set, for example, the :attr:`Embed.image` attributes called ``width`` and 
+``height`` that return the width and height of the image respectively.
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    >>> print(embed.image.width)
+    1024 # or None
+    >>> print(embed.image.height)
+    768 # or None
+
+Other attributes can be found in the :class:`Embed` documentation for the reprecive attribute.
+
+Proxy URLs
+~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+This is a cached version of the url in the case of images. When the message is deleted, this URL might be valid for a few minutes or not valid at all.
+
+The following field can have a proxy URL:
+
+- :attr:`Embed.image`
+- :attr:`Embed.thumbnail`
+- :attr:`Embed.author`
+- :attr:`Embed.footer`
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    >>> print(embed.thumbnail.proxy_url)
+    'https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/123456789012345678/8765432187654321/image.png'
+
+
+Other Methods
+-------------
+
+There are a few other methods that may be useful when working with embeds.
+
+.. method:: Embed.from_dict()
+    :noindex:
+    
+    Creates an embed from a Python dictionary.
+
+    .. code-block:: python
+
+        payload = {
+            "title": "Hello, World!",
+            "description": "This bot is running on discord.py!",
+            "color": 0x00FF00
+        }
+        embed = discord.Embed.from_dict(payload)
+
+    .. warning::
+        
+        Each key needs to match the structure of an embed from Discord's API.
+        Namely, the API doesn't alias `colour` and `color` needs to be used instead.
+        :ddocs:`Embeds as documented by Discord<resources/channel#embed-object>`.
+        
+
+.. method:: Embed.to_dict()
+    :noindex:
+
+    Inversely, `to_dict` converts the embed to a dictionary compatible with the API's embed specification.
+
+    .. code-block:: python
+
+        >>> embed.to_dict()
+        {'title': 'Hello, World!', 'description': 'This bot is running on discord.py!', 'type': 'rich', 'color': 65280}
+
+Other can be found in the :class:`Embed` documentation.
+
+
+Restrictions and limits
+------------------------
+
+There are a few restrictions and limits that you should be aware of when working with embeds.
+
+Markdown support
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Markdown like **this**, *that*, and even ``this`` is supported in embeds, but only in certain fields.
+
+More about this can be found at :ref:`_guide_topic_markdown`.
+
+All strings
+~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+All values passed to the embed must be a string.
+
+Except for ``timestamp`` and ``colour`` which must be a :class:`datetime.datetime` and :class:`Colour` / ``int``, respectively.
+
+discord.py attempts to convert all values given to string using ``str()``.
+This can be confusing for beginning users of Python as they may not be aware of this, most objects have a ``__str__`` method that 
+returns a string representation of the object. Most objects in discord.py also do this, like :class:`Asset`, that is returned from
+attributes like :attr:`User.avatar` and :attr:`Guild.icon`, calling ``str()`` on any of those returns the URL of the asset.
+That is precisely why you can pass these attributes to the ``url`` or ``icon_url`` parameter of the methods or :attr:`User` to ``name`` in
+:meth:`embed.set_author() <Embed.set_author>`. It will work but it's not encouraged to do so.
+
+Try it out:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    embed.set_author(name=bot.user, icon_url=bot.user.display_avatar)
+
+Character limits
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Each field has its own character limit. Unfortunately, listing all the limits here would quickly become 
+outdated, but you can find them in the :ddocs:`Discord API documentation<resources/channel#embed-object>`.
