📦 Netcord 2.0.0 — The Async Discord OAuth2 Toolkit for FastAPI

A complete rewrite. Cleaner. Smarter. Async-native.

---

✨ What's New

• Full Asynchronous Support: Built entirely on httpx.AsyncClient for non-blocking HTTP interactions.
• Pydantic Models: Structured responses using pydantic for type safety and validation.
• OAuth2 Flow Simplified: Easily exchange codes for tokens and retrieve user data.
• Scope Management: Support for identify, email, and guilds scopes.
• CDN Helpers: Generate direct URLs for avatars and icons with format detection (.gif/.png).
• Custom Exceptions: Clear and informative error handling built upon fastapi.HTTPException.

🔧 Configuration

Set up your credentials once:

from netcord import Netcord

client = Netcord(
    client_id='your_client_id',
    client_secret='your_client_secret',
    redirect_uri='https://yourapp.com/callback',
    bot_token='your_bot_token'
)

Then, use the client to interact with Discord's API seamlessly.

🧩 Integration with FastAPI

Designed to work harmoniously with FastAPI:

• Use dependencies to inject authenticated users into your routes.
• Leverage custom exceptions for consistent error responses.

Note: While direct FastAPI integrations are planned, the current version focuses on providing the core functionality. Future updates will enhance this integration further.
