Message Wrapper
⚠️ Disclaimer
Warning
This system is here to helps you cache messages, in order to keep infos about deleted & edited messages. This is not provided by Discord and everything is self-handled by DiSky.
Even with all correct settings, some factors can make this system not working! (like Discord API issues, or cache issues, etc...)
Please, do not reports issues about this system, unless you are sure that you have all correct settings and that you have waited enough time for the cache to be filled.
How it works
For both edited & deleted cache, DiSky will cache received messages in memory. That mean any messages that were not cached (aka not sent while the bot was running) won't have any info stored!
Edited Messages
DiSky will update the cached previous/current message text when a message is edited. This will allow you to get the previous message content, and the new one.
The message itself still exists on Discord, so only the message's content is updated and cached.
Usage
In the on message edit event, you can use the event-string expression to get the old message content. event-message is also available, and will contain the current/new content.
Deleted Messages
DiSky will do its best to recreate a whole fake message object, with all the infos it can get from the previously-cached message.
This will allow you to get the message's content, the author, the channel, the attachments, etc... basically, all information of an actual message.
This is not a real message!
This is a fake message, so you won't be able to destroy, reference, etc... it with DiSky. It'll always lead to a 10008: Unknown Message error!
Usage
In the on message delete event, you can use the event-message expression to get the deleted message object.
- For instance, if you try to do
destroy event-message, it'll lead to a10008: Unknown Messageerror.
Why this system?
Discord doesn't provide any way to get deleted/edited messages, so this system is here to help you to get these messages.
