Sending message to Discord - Kox - 2023-02-19

Hi,

This tutorial aims to give you a basic example about how to use a webhook to send message from your OpenMP/SA-MP server into a discord channel.

Requirements :

1) Install pawn-requests package on your server
  • Install the package with sampctl or manually

2) Creating a Discord webhook
  1. Create text channel
  2. Click "Edit Channel" =>  Integrations => Create Webhook
  3. Click on the Webhook => Copy Webhook url (save it for later)

3) Send message from server
  1. Add requests include and create a RequestsClient with your webhook url
    PHP Code:
    #include <requests>

    new RequestsClient:client;
    main()
    {
        client = RequestsClient("replace with your webhookurl");
    } 

  2. Send message to discrod
    PHP Code:
    public OnPlayerConnect(playerid)
    {
        new name[MAX_PLAYER_NAME + 1];
        GetPlayerName(playerid, name, sizeof(name));
        new string[MAX_PLAYER_NAME + 23 + 1];
        format(string, sizeof(string), "%s has joined the server.", name);
        RequestJSON(
            client,
            "",            
            HTTP_METHOD_POST    , 
            "OnPostJson",    
            JsonObject    (
                "content", JsonString(string)
            )
        );
        return 1;
    }

    forward OnPostJson(Request:id, E_HTTP_STATUS:status, Node:node);
    public     OnPostJson(Request:id, E_HTTP_STATUS:status, Node:node) 
    {
        if(status == HTTP_STATUS_NO_CONTENT) {
            printf("successfully posted message");
        }
        else 
        {
            printf("failed to post message");
        }
    } 

Now when a player connect to the server, a message will be sent on the discord channel.
