Slash Commands and Interactions #2295

msciotti · 2020-12-09T20:43:36Z

Opening the PR now because the "meat" of the docs are done. Just a quick note:

Comments on this PR should be solely about the documentation. When this launches, we will have specific repo templates for feedback on the feature itself. I will pretty aggressively prune the convo here to be documentation-only so that we can get this out

This documentation page is a bit of a monolith, and should probably be split up into smaller sections. The same can be said of most of our documentation, to be honest. I'm prioritizing having the documentation ready over having it look pretty, and we can revisit later.

TODO:

Write a better intro
Document INTERACTION_CREATE gateway event
Document subcommands and groups
How does the security check actually work
Make sure all the links work
Put a resources section since we have a nice node and python library to help with cryptography and some data models
Check styling in local dev for 🌟 aesthetics 🌟
Make sure the code examples actually work

This is my final draft now. All the information should be correct, even if some could be better. I'll be merging and deploying this tonight so after that any changes can be PR'd against master.

Is there a limit to the payload size for this endpoint? (Hopefully it's large enough, the previous permission example was 1kb minified 😰)

A limit to the payload size for creating commands?

Like how there's limits to embeds and whatnot, I guess. I was mostly just asking for the sake of asking, though.

Those limits are mostly just because our send_message has a max filesize on it I believe

Docs are missing out on talking about message flags or using the EPHEMERAL flag.

From what i've seen, flags would be here too.

I've intentionally left flags off for now because ephemeral messages aren't quite done (UI-wise) on all platforms.

Does this do the same behavior as setting wait to true in executing commands?

(meant to put this in creating a follow-up message)

Not entirely sure what you mean. Do you mean will it return the message object when creating a followup message?

Yeah, that was my question. Meant to say executing webhooks not commands.

Is this guaranteed to have the User attached, unlike CREATE_MESSAGE?

Yes the user object is guaranteed

+After receiving an interaction, you must respond to acknowledge it. This may be a `pong` for a `ping`, a message, or simply an acknowledgement that you have received it and will handle the command async.
+
+Interaction responses may choose to "eat" the user's command input if you do not wish to have their slash command show up as message in chat. This may be helpful for slash commands, or commands whose responses are asynchronous or ephemeral messages.


I feel "swallow" is the more widely used term here, but "eat" is a fun word.

Yknow, I knew "eat" wasn't quite it but I knew it was some sort of eating-based word. I'm keeping it now though I've become attached :p

+[Interactions and Slash Commands](#DOCS_INTERACTIONS_SLASH_COMMANDS/) are the great, new way of making a Discord bot. The following open-source libraries provide help for the security and authentication checks that are mandatory if you are receiving Interactions via outgoing webhook. They also include some types for the Interactions data models.


The comma after great feels weird.

Can this use different interaction types (like ChannelMessageWithSource) or is it completely restricted to the parameters from webhooks? If it is restricted, will we be able to use file in interaction responses or would it only be here?

Followups are only webhook messages, types are only for the initial response

Advaith is correct that only the original response supports the different types since any followup message is just like sending a normal message.

I don't believe we support file yet, but we should. Had to make some tradeoffs in the architecture to start but definitely noted :)

Is type 7 here any channel, only text channels or voice channels as well?

Any channel - from text channels to channel categories.

Any channel within the guild, yes. So no DM channels but everything else including categories, store channels, etc.

Is there any specific reason why this isn't called public_flags?

I think that all the flags on an application actually are public, as opposed to users where we specifically differentiate. Calling them the public flags covers my butt for now but I can confirm.

It would be useful for future-proofing for a future where bots could be boosted.

Thanks everyone for your help in getting this PR into a good state! As always if we find more things that need clarifying or changing, PRs or pings are always welcome. There's also two new issue templates here for slash command bugs and feature requests, so we'll keep an eye on those!

WalshyDev · 2020-12-15T17:03:34Z

Mason, could you tell us what the rollout plans are for this feature? Now this is merged and we have feature/bug templates, are we going to see the rollout starting today?
