Ascord

Ascord is a powerful discord bot framework written completely in ASPL.
This library was one of the very first projects written in the language.

Important

Ascord is WIP and should not be used in production at the time, as not all features are implemented and the gateway connection is not 100% stable yet.

Example usage

import ascord
import ascord.message
import io

var bot = new Bot()
bot.onReady = callback(){
    print("Starting up...")
    bot.setStatus("Hello ASPL 🧑‍💻")
}
bot.commandPrefix = "!"
bot.onMessage = callback(Message message){
    print("Message from " + message.sender.name + "#" + message.sender.discriminator + ": " + message.content)
}
bot.onCommand = callback(CommandMessage command){
    print("Command from " + command.sender.name + "#" + command.sender.discriminator + ": " + command.content)
    if(command.command == "ping"){
        bot.postMessage("Pong! 🏓", command.channel)
    }elseif(command.command == "say"){
        bot.postMessage(command.args.join(" "), command.channel)
    }elseif(command.command == "status"){
        bot.setStatus(command.args.join(" "))
    }elseif(command.command == "shutdown"){
        print("Shutting down...")
        bot.postMessage("Shutting down...", command.channel)
        exit(0)
    }
}
bot.start(io.read_file("client.token"))

Implemented features

Ascord does not implement the whole Discord API yet; these are the main features that are implemented, but others might already work as well:

• Message sending and receiving
• Heartbeating (not 100% reliable yet though)
• Simple command handling (either via a prefix or as slash commands)
• Embeds (only title and description)
• Setting the bot's status
• Getting a user by their id

Documentation

A documentation will be added soon.
