Quarkus Discord4J is an experimental Quarkus extension which allows you to develop a WebSocket-based (Gateway) Discord bot using the Discord4J library with minimal boilerplate.
Your bot code will look like this:
class MyDiscordBot {
Mono<Void> onMessageCreate(@GatewayEvent MessageCreateEvent event) {
return event.getMessage().addReaction(ReactionEmoji.of("🤖"));
}
}The code above listens to the MESSAGE_CREATE Gateway event and adds a reaction of 🤖 to every received message.
With the additional commands extension, you can also automatically register and listen for application commands.
Because it's a Quarkus extension, all the standard Quarkus goodies apply:
- Quarkus live reload to detect user code changes and restart your bot automatically (and delay incoming events until after your bot restarts to increase developer joy!)
- Native executable generation via GraalVM or Mandrel
- Optional automatic metrics collection
- And more!
Inspired by the Quarkus GitHub App extension.
Please refer to the extension documentation to learn how to get started and more.
