Discord Webhook sending

How to use

Basic use:

const webhook = require('discord-webhook-node');
const hook = new webhook.Webhook("YOUR WEBHOOK URL");

hook.send("Hello there!");

Custom embeds:

const { Webhook, MessageBuilder } = require('discord-webhook-node');
const hook = new Webhook("YOUR WEBHOOK URL");

const embed = new MessageBuilder()
.setTitle('My title here')
.setAuthor('Author here', 'https://cdn.discordapp.com/embed/avatars/0.png', 'https://www.google.com')
.setURL('https://www.google.com')
.addField('First field', 'this is inline', true)
.addField('Second field', 'this is not inline')
.setColor(7785669)
.setThumbnail('https://cdn.discordapp.com/embed/avatars/0.png')
.setDescription('Oh look a description :)')
.setImage('https://cdn.discordapp.com/embed/avatars/0.png')
.setFooter('Hey its a footer', 'https://cdn.discordapp.com/embed/avatars/0.png')
.setTimestamp();

hook.send(embed);

Keep in mind that the custom embed method setColor takes in a decimal color. You can convert hex colors to decimal using this website here: https://convertingcolors.com

Sending files:

const { Webhook } = require('discord-webhook-node');
const hook = new Webhook('YOUR WEBHOOK URL');

hook.sendFile('../yourfilename.png');

Preset messages:

const { Webhook } = require('discord-webhook-node');
const hook = new Webhook('YOUR WEBHOOK URL');

//Sends an information message
hook.info('**Information hook**', 'Information field title here', 'Information field value here');

//Sends a success message
hook.success('**Success hook**', 'Success field title here', 'Success field value here');

//Sends an warning message
hook.warning('**Warning hook**', 'Warning field title here', 'Warning field value here');

//Sends an error message
hook.error('**Error hook**', 'Error field title here', 'Error field value here');

Notes

discord-webhook-node is a promise based library, which means you can use .catch, .then, and await, although if successful will not return any values. For example:

const { Webhook } = require('discord-webhook-node');
const hook = new Webhook("YOUR WEBHOOK URL");

hook.send("Hello there!")
.then(() => console.log('Sent webhook successfully!'))
.catch(err => console.log(err.message));

or using async:

const { Webhook } = require('discord-webhook-node');
const hook = new Webhook("YOUR WEBHOOK URL");

(async () => {
    try {
        await hook.send('Hello there!');
        console.log('Successfully sent webhook!');
    }
    catch(e){
        console.log(e.message);
    };
})();

By default, it will handle Discord's rate limiting, and if there is an error sending the message (other than rate limiting), an error will be thrown. You can change these options with the custom settings options below.

Custom settings:

const { Webhook } = require('discord-webhook-node');
const hook = new Webhook({
    url: "YOUR WEBHOOK URL",
    //If throwErrors is set to false, no errors will be thrown if there is an error sending
    throwErrors: false,
    //retryOnLimit gives you the option to not attempt to send the message again if rate limited
    retryOnLimit: false
});
