1. 📦 Installation

You can install NetCord packages via NuGet package manager:

Package Description
NetCord Core package with fundamental functionality.
NetCord.Services Facilitates seamless handling of commands and interactions.
NetCord.Hosting Provides .NET Generic Host extensions for the NetCord package.
NetCord.Hosting.Services Provides .NET Generic Host extensions for the NetCord.Services package.
NetCord.Hosting.AspNetCore Provides ASP.NET Core extensions for seamless handling of HTTP interactions.

2. 🚀 Showcase

This snippet showcases a bot with a minimal API-style /square command and includes a module-based /greet command.

Minimal API-style Bot Example

The following example sets up a bot with a minimal API-style approach for the /square command, which calculates the square of a number:

var builder = Host.CreateDefaultBuilder(args)
    .UseDiscordGateway()
    .UseApplicationCommands();

var host = builder.Build()
    .AddSlashCommand("square", "Square!", (int a) => $"{a}² = {a * a}")
    .UseGatewayEventHandlers();

await host.RunAsync();

Of course, you can also use the bare-bones approach.

Module-based Command Example

Moreover, you can use a module-based approach. Here's an example of a /greet command that greets a specified user:

public class GreetingModule : ApplicationCommandModule<ApplicationCommandContext>
{
    [SlashCommand("greet", "Greet someone!")]
    public string Greet(User user) => $"{Context.User} greets {user}!";
}

3. 🎨 Features

  • Easy to Use - Designed to be intuitive and easy to use for C# and .NET developers.

Versioning

NetCord follows a MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH versioning scheme:

  • MAJOR versions can introduce significant, breaking API changes.
  • MINOR versions can add new features and may include limited breaking changes that are unlikely to affect most users.
  • PATCH versions contain backwards-compatible bug fixes and improvements.

Our goal is to maintain stability while allowing for necessary evolution of the API.
