Quick Start

Overview

To use the Discord transporter, pass the following options object to the createMicroservice() method on main.ts file:

import { NestFactory } from '@nestjs/core';
import { MicroserviceOptions } from '@nestjs/microservices';
import { DiscordTransporter } from 'nestjs-discord-transporter';
import { AppModule } from './app.module';

async function bootstrap() {
  const app = await NestFactory.createMicroservice<MicroserviceOptions>(
    AppModule,
    {
      strategy: new DiscordTransporter({
        token: '<you-token>', // or set the environment var DISCORD_TOKEN
        intents: [], // optional param
        partials: [], // optional param
        prefix: 'command:', // optional if receive commands
      }),
    },
  );
  await app.listen();
}
bootstrap();

Transporter options

Request-response

To create a message handler based on the request-response paradigm use the @MessagePattern() decorator, which is imported from the @nestjs/microservices package. This decorator should be used only within the controller classes since they are the entry points for your application. Using them inside providers won't have any effect as they are simply ignored by Nest runtime.

app.controller.ts

import { Controller } from '@nestjs/common';
import { Message } from 'discord.js';
import { MessagePattern } from '@nestjs/microservices';
import { AppService } from './app.service';

@Controller()
export class AppController {
  constructor(private readonly appService: AppService) {}

  @MessagePattern('messageCreate')
  async getHello(message: Message) {
    message.channel.sendTyping();
    const response = await this.appService.handleMessage(message.content);
    message.channel.send(response);
  }
}
