If the message exceeds 2000 characters, it will be split into smaller chunks and sent as separate messages.

discordBot
A simple Discord Bot scaffolding, a slight rev on the one in the valtown guide . The discordBot function takes in an object where each key is a Discord command and the value is a function to handle the command. If the function returns a Promise , it will be handled as a deferred interaction with a followup message . Usage:
import { discordBot } from "https://esm.town/v/dglazkov/discordBot";
const echo = async (data) => {
await new Promise((r) => setTimeout(r, 5000));
return {
type: 4,
data: {
content: data.data.options[0].value,
},
};
};
export default discordBot({
ping: () => ({
type: 4,
data: {
content: `Pong! It is ${new Date()}`,
},
})
echo,
});

verify_discord_signature
verify_discord_signature Verify HTTP signatures coming from Discord. public_key should be the Ed25519 public key from Discord, as a hex string body should be the request body as a string. If you have a JSON object as the request body, use JSON.stringify. signature should be the X-Signature-Ed25519 header timestamp should be the X-Signature-Timestamp header
You must return a 401 error and return early if this function returns false, otherwise you will pretty quickly get a big scary warning from Discord that your endpoint has been removed. Note that you'll only be able to add one once you've integrated this correctly. As this function only deals with strings, it doesn't matter whether you use an Express or web endpoint.
