How to send data using a Discord Webhook in Glitch?

#1

I want to receive data from IFTTT and send it to multiple discord servers via webhooks. I am a complete beginner and only know some JavaScript. What code should I use to send data via Discord webhooks?

#2

Hello @masteradit

I recommend that you use discord.js to handle webhooks, you should also store webhooks in a JSON file, this is something I can help you further with in a social media such as Discord if you would like.

@ihack2712 How do I code it?

I mean can you give me an example code?

#4

Oh, yeah!

EDIT
This snippet is untested, and made using discordjs/discord.js (master).

INSTALLATION npm i -S discordjs/discord.js

THIS IS NOT SUPPORTED FOR STABLE VERSION, ONLY MASTER VERSION

// Dependencies
const Discord = require('discord.js');

// Initiate a new Webhook.
const Webhook = new Discord.WebhookClient(process.env.WEBHOOK_ID, process.env.WEBHOOK_TOKEN);

// Send a message
Webhook.send('Hello world')
  .then(() => console.log('Message sent!'))
  .catch(e => console.log('Failed to send message!', err.message))

// Or even send an embed
var embed = new Dicscord.MessageEmbed()
  .setTitle('Hello')
  .setDescription('world!')
  .addField('Lorem', 'Ipsum')
  .setThumbnail('https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/409/1*D4PatAaU5Xu7BA5cFrNSjQ.png')

// Send the message embed
Webhook.send({ embed })
  .then(() => console.log('Embed sent!'))
  .catch(e => console.log('Failed to send embed!', err.message))

@ihack2712 Thanks! I have a few more questions.

I am very familiar with this type of structure:
{"content":"Hi","username":"TestBot"}
Is there an alternative way to send Webhooks like this? :arrow_up:

Btw, can we chat at Discord? Here’s my server: https://discord.gg/DdGbkGd

Hello, yes we can chat at discord, but I see that I don’t have to join any servers. Can you send me your Discord tag?
