Event Handling

Adding an event handler

Add the import

import discord_gleam/event_handler

Create a new function, that looks like this:

fn event_handler(bot, packet: event_handler.Packet() {
  
}

(the function name can be anything)

Now we will need to handle packets, to do add this into your function

case packet {
    event_handler.ReadyPacket(ready) -> {
      logging.log(logging.Info, "Logged in as " <> ready.d.user.username)

      Nil
    }
    _ -> Nil
}

Your function should now look like this:

fn event_handler(bot, packet: event_handler.Packet() {
  case packet {
    event_handler.ReadyPacket(ready) -> {
      logging.log(logging.Info, "Logged in as " <> ready.d.user.username)

      Nil
    }
    _ -> Nil
  }
}

Now you can add other packets as you can find in Package Docs under the Packet type

Then modify

discord_gleam.run(bot, [])

To

discord_gleam.run(bot, [event_handler]) //Or your function name

Our event handling system allows for multiple event handlers so you dont have to put all possible events you wanna handle in one function
