Class: EmbedParser

An embed tag will send an embed in the tag response. There are two ways to use the embed tag, either by using properly formatted embed JSON or manually inputting the accepted embed properties.

Embed can be used either by using a json string or by using the embed properties.

Examples

Using JSON

{embed: json}

{embed: { "title": "Hello!", "description": "This is a test embed." } }
{embed: {
    "title": "Here's a random duck!",
    "image": { "url": "https://random-d.uk/api/randomimg" },
    "color": 15194415
} }

Using properties

{embed(property):value}

{embed(color): 0x37b2cb}
{embed(title): Rules}
{embed(description): Follow these rules to ensure a good experience in our server!}
{embed(field): Rule 1|Respect everyone you speak to.|false}

Developers need to construct the embed builder themselves with the output of the tag.

const { Interpreter } = require("tagscript")
const { EmbedParser } = require("@tagscript/plugin-discord")
 
const ts = new Interpreter(new EmbedParser())
const result = await ts.run('{embed: { "title": "Hello!", "description": "This is a test embed." }}')
 
// You might need to change the embed object before passing to `EmbedBuilder`. Changes such as change thumbnail and image value from string to object.
const embed = new EmbedBuilder(response.actions.embed);

Remarks

The return type depends on user's input. So it might not be EmbedData | APIEmbed. So use a typeguard to check.
