A wrapper for the official [Discord](https://discordapp.com) REST, gateway and voice APIs.
A drop-in replacement wrapper for the DiscordPHP package originally by [teamreflex](https://github.com/teamreflex), improved and under development now by [RocketMates](https://github.com/rocketmates) to power their Discord Bot.

## FAQ
PHP 7.4 compatible.

1. Can I run DiscordPHP on a webserver (e.g. Apache, nginx)?
- No, DiscordPHP will only run in CLI. If you want to have an interface for your bot you can integrate [react/http](https://github.com/ReactPHP/http) with your bot and run it through CLI.

## Getting Started

### Installing DiscordPHP

DiscordPHP is installed using [Composer](https://getcomposer.org). Make sure you have installed Composer and are used to how it operates. We require a minimum PHP version of PHP 5.5.9, however it is reccomended that you use PHP 7. PHP 5.x support **will** be removed in the future.

This library has not been tested with HHVM.

1. Run `composer require team-reflex/discord-php`. This will install the lastest release.
- If you would like, you can also install the development branch by running `composer require team-reflex/discord-php dev-develop`.
2. Include the Composer autoload file at the top of your main file:
- `include __DIR__.'/vendor/autoload.php';`
3. Make a bot!

### Basic Example

```php
<?php

include __DIR__.'/vendor/autoload.php';

use Discord\Discord;

$discord = new Discord([
'token' => 'bot-token',
]);

$discord->on('ready', function ($discord) {
echo "Bot is ready!", PHP_EOL;

// Listen for messages.
$discord->on('message', function ($message, $discord) {
echo "{$message->author->username}: {$message->content}",PHP_EOL;
});
});

$discord->run();
```

## Notes

- This library can use a lot of RAM and PHP may hit the memory limit. To increase the memory limit, use `ini_set('memory_limit', '200M')` to increase it to 200 mb. If you would like it to be unlimited, use `ini_set('memory_limit', '-1')`.

## Documentation

Raw documentation can be found in-line in the code and on the [DiscordPHP Class Reference](http://teamreflex.github.io/DiscordPHP/). More user friendly and examples will soon be coming on the [DiscordPHP Wiki](https://discordphp.readme.io/).

## Contributing

We are open to contributions. However, please make sure you follow our coding standards (PSR-4 autoloading and custom styling). We use StyleCI to format our code. Our StyleCI settings can be found [here](https://github.com/teamreflex/DiscordPHP/wiki/StyleCI).
