# DiscordGo
[](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/bwmarrin/discordgo) [](https://goreportcard.com/report/github.com/bwmarrin/discordgo) [](https://travis-ci.com/bwmarrin/discordgo) [](https://discord.gg/golang) [](https://discord.com/invite/discord-api)
<img align="right" alt="DiscordGo logo" src="docs/img/discordgo.svg" width="400">
DiscordGo is a [Go](https://golang.org/) package that provides low level
bindings to the [Discord](https://discord.com/) chat client API. DiscordGo
has nearly complete support for all of the Discord API endpoints, websocket
interface, and voice interface.
If you would like to help the DiscordGo package please use
[this link](https://discord.com/oauth2/authorize?client_id=173113690092994561&scope=bot)
to add the official DiscordGo test bot **dgo** to your server. This provides
indispensable help to this project.
* See [dgVoice](https://github.com/bwmarrin/dgvoice) package for an example of
additional voice helper functions and features for DiscordGo.
* See [dca](https://github.com/bwmarrin/dca) for an **experimental** stand alone
tool that wraps `ffmpeg` to create opus encoded audio appropriate for use with
Discord (and DiscordGo).
**For help with this package or general Go discussion, please join the [Discord
Gophers](https://discord.gg/golang) chat server.**
## Getting Started
### Installing
This assumes you already have a working Go environment, if not please see
[this page](https://golang.org/doc/install) first.
`go get` *will always pull the latest tagged release from the master branch.*
```sh
go get github.com/bwmarrin/discordgo
```
### Usage
Import the package into your project.
```go
import "github.com/bwmarrin/discordgo"
```
Construct a new Discord client which can be used to access the variety of
Discord API functions and to set callback functions for Discord events.
```go
discord, err := discordgo.New("Bot " + "authentication token")
```
See Documentation and Examples below for more detailed information.
## Documentation
**NOTICE**: This library and the Discord API are unfinished.
Because of that there may be major changes to library in the future.
The DiscordGo code is fairly well documented at this point and is currently
the only documentation available. Both GoDoc and GoWalker (below) present
that information in a nice format.
- [](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/bwmarrin/discordgo)
- [](https://gowalker.org/github.com/bwmarrin/discordgo)
- Hand crafted documentation coming eventually.
## Examples
Below is a list of examples and other projects using DiscordGo. Please submit
an issue if you would like your project added or removed from this list.
- [DiscordGo Examples](https://github.com/bwmarrin/discordgo/tree/master/examples) - A collection of example programs written with DiscordGo
- [Awesome DiscordGo](https://github.com/bwmarrin/discordgo/wiki/Awesome-DiscordGo) - A curated list of high quality projects using DiscordGo
## Troubleshooting
For help with common problems please reference the
[Troubleshooting](https://github.com/bwmarrin/discordgo/wiki/Troubleshooting)
section of the project wiki.
## Contributing
Contributions are very welcomed, however please follow the below guidelines.
- First open an issue describing the bug or enhancement so it can be
discussed.
- Try to match current naming conventions as closely as possible.
- This package is intended to be a low level direct mapping of the Discord API,
so please avoid adding enhancements outside of that scope without first
discussing it.
- Create a Pull Request with your changes against the master branch.
## List of Discord APIs
See [this chart](https://abal.moe/Discord/Libraries.html) for a feature
comparison and list of other Discord API libraries.
## Special Thanks
[Chris Rhodes](https://github.com/iopred) - For the DiscordGo logo and tons of PRs.
