Discordgo

A Discord API for Golang

Discordgo provides an almost complete low-level Golang interface to the Discord REST and Websocket API layers. The majority of both of these interfaces are complete and I should have the remaining functions finished soon.

At this point Discordgo is suitable for use with most projects including bots or clients. The function naming conventions and usage style should not change in the future. Function names are based primarily on the naming used by Discord within their API calls. Should Discord change their naming then Discordgo will be updated to match it.

Special thanks goes to both the below projects who helped me get started with this project. If you're looking for alternative Golang interfaces to Discord please check both of these out.
