- Improved handling of error messages of api_exceptions based on JDA exceptions
Due to the sunsetting of Javacord, this mod migrated to JDA, which meant that introducing breaking changes was inevitable, so I chose to use this update to add more improvements that introduce breaking changes.
The naming convention of "parsables" in the documentation and changelogs have changed. These map values used as function parameters are now referred to as "schemas" or "objects". A "schema" is the format of the fields a parsable has, while an "object" will be referred to as a map value following that schema.
Breaking changes
The following changes may break existing scripts. Make sure to update them to work with this new discarpet version.
Event changes
Due to JDA having no built-in message caching, the following events were changed:
- The
__on_discord_message_editevent now no longer provides the previous message and whether it was actually edited - The
__on_discord_message_deletenow only gives the deleted message id and the channel object instead of the message object
Function changes
- The channel or message for creating a thread is no longer provided in the schema (previously "parsable"), but as an argument to
dc_create_thread dc_reacthas been split todc_add_reaction(msg, emoji)anddc_remove_reaction(msg, emoji?, user?)dc_set_channel_topicwas removed in favor of the newdc_update_channel- Removed

Additionally,slash_command_interaction_option~'options'was removed, since subcommand groups and subcommands are no longer expressed as nested options, but can be retrieved usinginteraction~'sub_command'or~'sub_command_group'.- Replaced
~'is_subcommand_or_group'in slash command interaction option values with~'type'
Schema changes

fileschema (see above)thumbnailandimageinembediconinembed_authorandembed_footeravatarinwebhook_profileandwebhook_profile_updater
Type strings
ALL type strings are now returned in lowercase. Additionally, the type fields of schemas are now all case-insensitive, so you can interchangeably use upper or lower case strings everywhere.
Most values returned by the ~'type' queries of values are now also different:
~'type' strings
The types of a channel value have changed:
SERVER_TEXT_CHANNEL->textSERVER_VOICE_CHANNEL->voiceSERVER_FORUM_CHANNEL->forumSERVER_STAGE_VOICE_CHANNEL->stageSERVER_NEWS_CHANNEL->newsSERVER_STORE_CHANNEL-> removedSERVER_PUBLIC_THREAD->guild_public_threadSERVER_PRIVATE_THREAD->guild_private_threadSERVER_NEWS_THREAD->guild_news_threadPRIVATE_CHANNEL->privateGROUP_CHANNEL->groupCHANNEL_CATEGORY->categorySERVER_DIRECTORY_CHANNEL-> removed-

New member value
Added dc_member value type, referencing a user in a server.
This can be used to retrieve data of a user specific to a server, like nicknames and roles.
In order to retrieve this value, the following has been added:
- Added
message~'member' - Added
message~'member' - Added
interaction~'member' - Added
role~'members' - Added

- Added
dc_update_channel, replacingdc_set_channel_topic, allowing to update many options of channels. - Added
channel_updaterschema.
- Updated to 1.21.5
- New behaviour for errors while executing API requests.
Previously, functions would return
trueorfalse(sometimesnullor a value) to indicate success or failure. Now those functions no longer return anything (or only return a value) and instead throw custom discarpet exceptions that can be caught usingtry(). This affects the following functions and queries:- These functions no longer return a boolean value to indicate success
and will instead throw an exception when an error occured:
dc_set_channel_topicdc_reactdc_set_nicknamedc_add_roledc_remove_roledc_set_namedc_delete
- These functions will now throw an exception instead of returning null. When successful they will return a value:
dc_send_messagedc_send_webhookdc_create_webhookdc_update_webhookdc_create_threaddc_create_application_commanddc_get_global_application_commandsdc_user_from_iddc_message_from_iddc_webhook_from_iddc_webhook_from_url
- These actions now properly handle errors and throw exceptions on failure:
attachment~'download'channel~'webhooks'server~'webhooks'server~'slash_commands'user~'private_channel'
- Special cases:
dc_respond_interactioncan still returnnullwhen the response type doesn't create a message. In all other cases it will either throw an exception or return aMessage
- These functions no longer return a boolean value to indicate success
and will instead throw an exception when an error occured:

__on_discord_message(message, old_message, is_actual_edit)__on_discord_message_delete(message)__on_discord_server_member_join(server, user)__on_discord_server_member_leave(server, user)
