# biscuit
## A brand new bleeding edge non bloated Discord library
<img align="middle" src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/oasisjs/biscuit/main/assets/biscuit.svg" alt="biscuit" />
### Install (for [node18](https://nodejs.org/en/download/))
```sh-session
npm install @oasisjs/biscuit
pnpm add @oasisjs/biscuit
yarn add @oasisjs/biscuit
```
> or via [cdn](https://nest.land/package/biscuit)
The biscuit Discord library is built ontop of Discordeno and webspec APIs, we aim to provide portability. Join our
[Discord](https://discord.gg/zmuvzzEFz2)
### Most importantly, biscuit is:
- A modular [Discordeno](https://github.com/discordeno/discordeno) fork
- A framework to build Discord bots
- A bleeding edge API to contact Discord
Biscuit is primarily inspired by Discord.js and Discordeno but it does not include a cache layer by default, we believe
that you should not make software that does things it is not supposed to do.
### Why biscuit?:
- [Minimal](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_philosophy), non feature-rich!
- Crossplatform
- Consistent
- Performant
### Example bot (TS/JS)
```js
import { GatewayIntents, Session } from "@oasisjs/biscuit";
const token = "your token goes here";
const intents = GatewayIntents.MessageContent | GatewayIntents.Guilds | GatewayIntents.GuildMessages;
const session = new Session({ token, intents });
session.on("ready", ({ user }) => {
console.log("Logged in as:", user.username);
});
session.on("messageCreate", (message) => {
if (message.content.startsWith("!ping")) {
message.reply({ content: "pong!" });
}
});
session.start();
```
### Mininal style guide
- 4 spaces, no tabs
- Semi-colons are mandatory
- Run `deno fmt`
- Avoid circular dependencies
### Contrib guide
- Install Deno extension [here](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=denoland.vscode-deno)
- Run `deno check` to make sure the library works
- Avoid sharing state between classes
### Compatibility (bun)
**⚠️ DISCLAIMER:** since bun is unstable I highly recommend running biscuit on node!
- We got the library running on EndeavourOS but it spams the ready event multiple times
- We got the library running on Arch/Artix Linux but breaks when sending fetch requests
- We got the library running on WSL (Ubuntu) without any trouble
> if you really want to use the library with bun remember to clone the repo instead of installing it via the registry
### Known issues:
- some properties may be not implemented yet
- some structures are not implemented (see https://github.com/oasisjs/biscuit/issues)
- cache (wip)
- no optimal way to create embeds, should be fixed in builders tho
- no optimal way to deliver a webspec bun version to the registry (#50)
