Discord.zig

A high-performance bleeding edge Discord library in Zig, featuring full API coverage, sharding support, and fine-tuned parsing

Sharding Support: Ideal for large bots, enabling distributed load handling.
100% API Coverage & Fully Typed: Offers complete access to Discord's API with strict typing for reliable and safe code.
High Performance: Faster than whichever library you can name (WIP)
Flexible Payload Parsing: Supports payload parsing through both zlib and zstd*.

const Client = @import("discord.zig").Client;
const Shard = @import("discord.zig").Shard;
const Discord = @import("discord.zig");
const Intents = Discord.Intents;
const std = @import("std");

fn ready(_: *Shard, payload: Discord.Ready) void {
    std.debug.print("logged in as {s}\n", .{payload.user.username});
}

fn message_create(_: *Shard, message: Discord.Message) void {
    std.debug.print("captured: {?s}\n", .{ message.content });
}

pub fn main() !void {
    var handler = Client.init(allocator);
    try handler.start(.{
        .token = std.posix.getenv("TOKEN") orelse unreachable,
        .intents = Intents.fromRaw(37379),
        .run = .{ .message_create = &message_create, .ready = &ready },
        .log = .yes,
        .options = .{},
    });
    errdefer handler.deinit();
}

Installation

// In your build.zig file
const exe = b.addExecutable(.{
    .name = "marin",
    .root_source_file = b.path("src/main.zig"),
    .target = target,
    .optimize = optimize,
});

const dzig = b.dependency("discord.zig", .{});

exe.root_module.addImport("discord.zig", dzig.module("discord.zig"));

TIP: make sure you use the latest Zig!
