Sending message to Discord

[Kox]

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 :

• Pawn-requests package
  
• Discord server
  

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.
