# Discordgo

Discordgo provides a mostly complete low-level Golang interface to the Discord
REST and Websocket API.


# Usage Example
```go
package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"time"

	"github.com/bwmarrin/discordgo"
)

func main() {

	var err error

	// Create a new Discord Session and set a handler for the OnMessageCreate
    // event that happens for every new message on any channel
	Session := discordgo.Session{
		OnMessageCreate: messageCreate,
	}

	// Login to the Discord server and store the authentication token
	// inside the Session
	Session.Token, err = Session.Login("coolusername", "cleverpassword")
	if err != nil {
		fmt.Println(err)
		return
	}

	// Open websocket connection
	err = Session.Open()
	if err != nil {
		fmt.Println(err)
	}

	// Do websocket handshake.
	err = Session.Handshake()
	if err != nil {
		fmt.Println(err)
	}

	// Listen for events.
	Session.Listen()
	return
}

func messageCreate(s *discordgo.Session, m discordgo.Message) {
	fmt.Printf("%25d %s %20s > %s\n", m.ChannelId, time.Now().Format(time.Stamp), m.Author.Username, m.Content)
}
```

# Documentation
- [GoDoc](https://godoc.org/github.com/bwmarrin/discordgo)
- Hand crafted documentation coming soon.

# What Works

Low level functions exist for the majority of the REST and Websocket API.

* Login/Logout
* Open/Close Websocket and listen for events.
* Accept/Create/Delete Invites
* Get User details (Name, ID, Settings, etc)
* List/Create User Channels (Private Message Channels)
* List/Create Guilds
* List/Create Guild Channels
* List Guild Members
* Receive/Send Messages to Channels

# What's Unfinished

* Editing User Profile settings
* Permissions related functions.
* Functions for Maintenance Status
* Voice Channel support.
