Send message to Discord (php)

Very simple code to send single messages to discord channel.

This code was originally writen to send service messages about deploying my project to production.

How to Use

Composer

Execute:

$ composer require agorlov/discordmsg

Create example.php:

<?php

use AG\DiscordMsg;

require_once './vendor/autoload.php';

(new DiscordMsg('Greetings!'))->send();

Run it:

$ php example.php

Check discord chanel (for tests), your message is there:

https://discord.gg/jB5FsPf

Good old require_once

1. Put Msg.php and DiscordMsg.php to your project:

2. Check out how it works:

example.php

require_once 'Msg.php';
require_once 'DiscordMsg.php';


echo "To see dumb messages..\n";
echo "..join the discordmsg chanel https://discord.gg/Bh4EZB and enjoy!\n";
echo "Feel free to test!\n";


// First message
$msg = new \AG\DiscordMsg('Hello, Friends');
$msg->send();


// Second message
(new \AG\DiscordMsg(
    'I started the example.php, something happened?',
    null,
    $_ENV["USER"] ?? 'Mr. Pitkin'
))->send();


// Third message
(new \AG\DiscordMsg(
    "Maybe the missile is launched? :grimacing:", // message
    'https://discordapp.com/api/webhooks/475239272610398218/' . // chanel webhook link
        'tfpeg5EFI_94oEHfltZwcB5UAurfcswkBw5mKouZCq-akhvxe5BNOtN16AqSHvmSwpum',
    get_current_user(), // bot name
    '' // avatar url
))->send();


```bash
$ php example.php

How to notify user

Thank to @bricecarbou (#3)

To notify anybody by webhook, we need to use the "real" id of user (recover in discord with @) and use $msg="<@id_recovered> ...

$msg = "<@4386638385456546554> is notified";
(new \AG\DiscordMsg(
  $msg, // message
  $webhookurl, // chanel webhook link
  "Trad Bot", // bot name
  '' // avatar url
))->send();

How to get Webhook link

Open chanel preferences (if you have enough permissions):
