Spacebar API Types

GitHub npm

Warning

Not all types in this package may be implemented or even correct with Spacebar.

Simple type definitions for the Spacebar API. This package is a modified version of Discord API Types to provide specific types for Spacebar. It should only be used for Spacebar instances.

Some notable changes include:

  • Versions 6, 8 and 10 of the API and Gateway have been removed, this is because Spacebar is only focused with version 9 right now.
  • Deno removed

Installation

Install with npm / yarn / pnpm:

npm install @spacebarchat/spacebar-api-types
yarn add @spacebarchat/spacebar-api-types
pnpm add @spacebarchat/spacebar-api-types

Usage

You can only import this module by specifying the API version you want to target. Append /v* to the import path, where the * represents the API version. Below are some examples

const { APIUser } = require('@spacebarchat/spacebar-api-types/v9');
// TypeScript/ES Module support
import { APIUser } from '@spacebarchat/spacebar-api-types/v9';

You may also import just certain parts of the module that you need. The possible values are: globals, gateway, gateway/v*, payloads, payloads/v*, rest, rest/v*, rpc, rpc/v*, utils, utils/v*, voice, and voice/v*. Below are some examples

const { GatewayVersion } = require('@spacebarchat/spacebar-api-types/gateway/v9');
// TypeScript/ES Module support
import { GatewayVersion } from '@spacebarchat/spacebar-api-types/gateway/v9';

Note: The v* exports (@spacebarchat/spacebar-api-types/v*) include the appropriate version of gateway, payloads, rest, rpc, and utils you specified, alongside the globals exports

Project Structure

The exports of each API version is split into three main parts:

  • Everything exported with the API prefix represents a payload you may get from the REST API or the Gateway.

  • Everything exported with the Gateway prefix represents data that ONLY comes from or is directly related to the Gateway.

  • Everything exported with the REST prefix represents data that ONLY comes from or is directly related to the REST API.

    • For endpoint options, they will follow the following structure: REST<HTTP Method><Type><Query|(JSON|FormData)Body|Result> where the type represents what it will return.

      • For example, RESTPostAPIChannelMessageJSONBody or RESTGetAPIGatewayBotInfoResult.

      • Some exported types (specifically OAuth2 related ones) may not respect this entire structure due to the nature of the fields. They will start with either RESTOAuth2 or with something similar to REST<HTTP Method>OAuth2

    • If a type ends with Result, then it represents the expected result by calling its accompanying route.

      • Types that are exported as never usually mean the result will be a 204 No Content, so you can safely ignore it. This does not account for errors.
  • Anything else that is miscellaneous will be exported based on what it represents (for example the REST route object).

  • There may be types exported that are identical for all versions. These will be exported as is and can be found in the globals file. They will still be prefixed accordingly as described above.
