Event Coding

Managing an Event

STEP #1 - Select your file

Choose a file present in /custom/events/<filename>.php
<filename> is the name of the file called for each event as described here

STEP #2 - Write your code

Let's take as an example that you wanted to execute code when a user of your server sends a message:

Key: MESSAGE_CREATE
Filename: /custom/events/MessageCreate.php

<?php
    // Write here your custom code
?>

Event inner Payloads

Almost all Events return a $payload, an object from which that particular event started. For example when a User create a message will be activate the MESSAGE_CREATE event with a message object that we call $payload which contain this information. What returns is exactly the object we receive when we perform $discord->guilds->message("GUILD_ID", "MESSAGE_ID");.
