Discord-openapi-client NPM

discord-openapi-client

!WARNING This is work in progress.

Autogenerated OpenAPI client for Discord, generated from discord/discord-api-spec.

This should contain almost everything you will need to interact with the Discord API, atleast whatever their OpenAPI spec has.

There are absolutely no significant dependencies apart from the openapi-fetch package for the generated types.

Usage

!NOTE This package is ESM only.

Install package:

# npm
npm install discord-openapi-client
# pnpm
pnpm add discord-openapi-client
# yarn
yarn add discord-openapi-client
# bun
bun add discord-openapi-client
# deno/jsr
deno add jsr:@tasky/discord-openapi-client

Usage example:

import { client } from "discord-openapi-client";

const user = await client.GET(
  "/users/{user_id}" /** 👈 path params, fully typed */,
  {
    params: { path: { user_id: "123456789012345678" } },
  },
);

console.info(user);

The client object uses the openapi-fetch package, with the paths type from the generated OpenAPI schema types. It handles all typesafety, ensuring you're using the correct path params, query params, etc, without any any or unknown casting.

You should also enable noUncheckedIndexedAccess in your tsconfig.json, so so any additionalProperties key will be typed as T | undefined. (Docs)

Consult the openapi-fetch docs for more information.

Alternatively, if you want to construct your own client, the paths, components, operations and schemas types are exported from the package.

Migrating from `v0.0.5`

I now use openapi-typescript to generate the types, as orval gave me a lot of trouble with the generated types. You can keep using the old version, or reuse the orval builder for yourself, see: https://github.com/taskylizard/discord-openapi-client/blob/e97fcd089e0ce4d43dd6d4a3fff6980b3fbb170d/orval.config.ts.

However, I won't recommend this approach, as the builder generates a lot of code (over 2550 symbols!), bloats the bundle size, and is not very maintainable.
