Discord Integration Example

[venerjoel99]

This example showcases an example of a human-in-the-loop workflow with Discord. The workflow will do the following:

• Message the channel to start messaging the bot
• Listen for messages sent after the last message sent by the bot
• For each message, reply with the backwards message.
• If the message is the word STOP, end the workflow

No applications have been configured for previews targeting branch: main. To do so go to restack console and configure your applications for previews.

@justrdk Here is a simple human-in-the-loop example using the Discord API in the Restack workflow

@venerjoel99 isn't there a way to get events when a message is sent on the server instead of polling messages in the workflow?

[justrdk]

you an use the "sleep" function from @restackio/ai/workflow

[venerjoel99]

I have moved the sleep to the scheduleWorkflow.ts file, but I can't use the sleep function in that file since it's not allowed to be used outside of a workflow execution

I can make a real-time event-based workflow example. I will respond here once I add the example here

perfect, to have the workflow keep on running while waiting on events you can use the "condition" functions from @restackio/ai/workflow

[venerjoel99]

@justrdk I have made changes to sending events to the Restack workflow based on real-time Discord messaging events picked up by the bot
