discord-send-messages

• Sends msg.payload on Discord channel with id msg.channel You can pass channel name in msg.channel as well as id, i.e. general

     title?: string;
     description?: string;
     url?: string;
     color?: ColorResolvable;
     timestamp?: number | Date;
     footer?: {
                 icon?: string;
                 text: string;
               };
     thumbnail?: string;
     author: {
               name: string;
               icon?: string;
               url?: string;
             };
  
     attachments?: Attachment[];
     field?: {
               name: string;
               value: string;
               inline?: boolean;
               };
     fields?: [
                 {
                   name: string;
                   value: string;
                   inline?: boolean;
