Discord Client for Swift

A client library for the Discord API written in Swift.

This project is a fork of nuclearace's SwiftDiscord, which is no longer actively maintained as of 2023. Among other changes, the codebase has been refactored to employ modern Swift patterns, such as value types and Codable, along with support for the v9 API.

Example

A simple Discord bot that responds to every "ping" message with "pong" could be implemented as follows:

import Discord
import Dispatch

class PingPongBot: DiscordClientDelegate {
    private var client: DiscordClient!

    init() {
        client = DiscordClient(
            token: "Bot <your token>",
            delegate: self,
            configuration: [.intents([.guildMessages, .messageContent])]
        )
        client.connect()
    }

    func client(_ client: DiscordClient, didCreateMessage message: DiscordMessage) {
        if message.content == "ping" {
            client.sendMessage("pong", to: message.channelId)
        }
    }
}

let bot = PingPongBot()
dispatchMain()

You can run this example (which is provided as a snippet) with

swift run PingPongBot <your token>
