### Basic Webhook

```python
from discord_webhook import DiscordWebhook

webhook = DiscordWebhook(url="your webhook url", content="Webhook Message")
response = webhook.execute()
```

### Create multiple instances
If you want to use multiple URLs you need to create multiple instances.

```python
from discord_webhook import DiscordWebhook

# you can provide any kwargs except url
webhook1, webhook2 = DiscordWebhook.create_batch(urls=["first url", "second url"], content="Webhook Message")
response1 = webhook1.execute()
response2 = webhook2.execute()
```
![Image](img/multiple_urls.png "Multiple Urls Result")

### Get Webhook by ID
You can access a webhook that has already been sent by providing the ID.

````python
from discord_webhook import DiscordWebhook

webhook = DiscordWebhook(url="your webhook url", id="your webhook message id")
# now you could delete or edit the webhook
# ...
````
### Send Webhook to a thread
You can send a message to an existing thread by setting `thread_id` or create a new thread in a forum channel by using a `thread_name`.
```python
from discord_webhook import DiscordWebhook

# send to an existing thread
webhook = DiscordWebhook(url="your webhook url", thread_id="the thread id")
webhook.execute()

# create a new thread in a forum channel
webhook = DiscordWebhook(url="your webhook url", thread_name="some-thread-name")
webhook.execute()
```

### Manage being Rate Limited

```python
from discord_webhook import DiscordWebhook

# if rate_limit_retry is True then in the event that you are being rate 
# limited by Discord your webhook will automatically be sent once the 
# rate limit has been lifted
webhook = DiscordWebhook(url="your webhook url", rate_limit_retry=True, content="Webhook Message")
response = webhook.execute()
```

### Webhook with Embedded Content

```python
from discord_webhook import DiscordWebhook, DiscordEmbed

webhook = DiscordWebhook(url="your webhook url")

# create embed object for webhook
# you can set the color as a decimal (color=242424) or hex (color="03b2f8") number
embed = DiscordEmbed(title="Your Title", description="Lorem ipsum dolor sit", color="03b2f8")

# add embed object to webhook
webhook.add_embed(embed)

response = webhook.execute()
```

![Image](img/simple_embed.png "Basic Embed Example Result")

```python
from discord_webhook import DiscordWebhook, DiscordEmbed

webhook = DiscordWebhook(url="your webhook url")

# create embed object for webhook
embed = DiscordEmbed(title="Your Title", description="Lorem ipsum dolor sit", color="03b2f8")

# set author
embed.set_author(name="Author Name", url="author url", icon_url="author icon url")

# set image
embed.set_image(url="your image url")

# set thumbnail
embed.set_thumbnail(url="your thumbnail url")

# set footer
embed.set_footer(text="Embed Footer Text", icon_url="URL of icon")

# set timestamp (default is now) accepted types are int, float and datetime
embed.set_timestamp()

# add fields to embed
embed.add_embed_field(name="Field 1", value="Lorem ipsum")
embed.add_embed_field(name="Field 2", value="dolor sit")

# add embed object to webhook
webhook.add_embed(embed)

response = webhook.execute()
```

![Image](img/extended_embed.png "Basic Embed Example Result")

This is another example with embedded content

```python
from discord_webhook import DiscordWebhook, DiscordEmbed

webhook = DiscordWebhook(url="your webhook url", username="New Webhook Username")

embed = DiscordEmbed(title="Embed Title", description="Your Embed Description", color="03b2f8")
embed.set_author(name="Author Name", url="https://github.com/lovvskillz", icon_url="https://avatars0.githubusercontent.com/u/14542790")
embed.set_footer(text="Embed Footer Text")
embed.set_timestamp()
embed.add_embed_field(name="Field 1", value="Lorem ipsum")
embed.add_embed_field(name="Field 2", value="dolor sit")
embed.add_embed_field(name="Field 3", value="amet consetetur")
embed.add_embed_field(name="Field 4", value="sadipscing elitr")

webhook.add_embed(embed)
response = webhook.execute()
```

![Image](img/extended_embed2.png "Example Embed Result")

By Default, the Embed fields are placed side by side. We can arrange them in a new line by setting `inline=False` as follows:

```python
from discord_webhook import DiscordWebhook, DiscordEmbed

webhook = DiscordWebhook(url="your webhook url", username="New Webhook Username")

embed = DiscordEmbed(
    title="Embed Title", description="Your Embed Description", color="03b2f8"
)
embed.set_author(
    name="Author Name",
    url="https://github.com/lovvskillz",
    icon_url="https://avatars0.githubusercontent.com/u/14542790",
)
embed.set_footer(text="Embed Footer Text")
embed.set_timestamp()
# Set `inline=False` for the embed field to occupy the whole line
embed.add_embed_field(name="Field 1", value="Lorem ipsum", inline=False)
embed.add_embed_field(name="Field 2", value="dolor sit", inline=False)
embed.add_embed_field(name="Field 3", value="amet consetetur")
embed.add_embed_field(name="Field 4", value="sadipscing elitr")

webhook.add_embed(embed)
response = webhook.execute()
```

![Image](img/extended_embed3.png "Example Non-Inline Embed Result")

### Edit Webhook Messages

```python
from discord_webhook import DiscordWebhook
from time import sleep

webhook = DiscordWebhook(url="your webhook url", content="Webhook content before edit")
webhook.execute()
webhook.content = "After Edit"
sleep(10)
webhook.edit()
```

### Delete Webhook Messages

```python
from discord_webhook import DiscordWebhook
from time import sleep

webhook = DiscordWebhook(url="your webhook url", content="Webhook Content")
webhook.execute()
sleep(10)
webhook.delete()
```

### Send Files

```python
from discord_webhook import DiscordWebhook

webhook = DiscordWebhook(url="your webhook url", username="Webhook with files")

# send two images
with open("path/to/first/image.jpg", "rb") as f:
    webhook.add_file(file=f.read(), filename="example.jpg")
with open("path/to/second/image.jpg", "rb") as f:
    webhook.add_file(file=f.read(), filename="example2.jpg")

response = webhook.execute()
```

![Image](img/webhook_files.png "Example Files Result")

You can use uploaded attachments in Embeds:

```python
from discord_webhook import DiscordWebhook, DiscordEmbed

webhook = DiscordWebhook(url="your webhook url")

with open("path/to/image.jpg", "rb") as f:
    webhook.add_file(file=f.read(), filename="example.jpg")

embed = DiscordEmbed(title="Embed Title", description="Your Embed Description", color="03b2f8")
embed.set_thumbnail(url="attachment://example.jpg")

webhook.add_embed(embed)
response = webhook.execute()
```

### Remove Embeds and Files

```python
from discord_webhook import DiscordWebhook, DiscordEmbed

webhook = DiscordWebhook(url="your webhook url")

with open("path/to/image.jpg", "rb") as f:
    webhook.add_file(file=f.read(), filename="example.jpg")

embed = DiscordEmbed(title="Embed Title", description="Your Embed Description", color="03b2f8")
embed.set_thumbnail(url="attachment://example.jpg")

webhook.add_embed(embed)
response = webhook.execute(remove_embeds=True)
# webhook.embeds will be empty after webhook is executed
# You could also manually call the function webhook.remove_embeds()
```

`.remove_file()` removes the given file

```python
from discord_webhook import DiscordWebhook

webhook = DiscordWebhook(url="your webhook url", username="Webhook with files")

# send two images
with open("path/to/first/image.jpg", "rb") as f:
    webhook.add_file(file=f.read(), filename="example.jpg")
with open("path/to/second/image.jpg", "rb") as f:
    webhook.add_file(file=f.read(), filename="example2.jpg")
# remove "example.jpg"
webhook.remove_file("example.jpg")
# only "example2.jpg" is sent to the webhook
response = webhook.execute()
```

### Allowed Mentions

Look into the [Discord Docs](https://discord.com/developers/docs/resources/channel#allowed-mentions-object) for examples and for more explanation.

This example would only ping user `123` and `124` but not everyone else.

```python
from discord_webhook import DiscordWebhook

content = "@everyone say hello to our new friends <@123> and <@124>"
allowed_mentions = {
    "parse": ["everyone"],
    "users": ["123", "124"]
}

webhook = DiscordWebhook(url="your webhook url", content=content, allowed_mentions=allowed_mentions)
response = webhook.execute()
```

### Use Message Flags

Flags can also be set for messages. Only two are currently supported.

```python
from discord_webhook import DiscordEmbed, DiscordWebhook
from discord_webhook.constants import MessageFlags

content = "Hi."

# this message will not trigger push and desktop notifications
webhook = DiscordWebhook(url="your webhook url", content=content, flags=MessageFlags.SUPPRESS_NOTIFICATIONS.value)
response = webhook.execute()

# do not include any embeds when serializing this message
webhook = DiscordWebhook(url="your webhook url", content=content, flags=MessageFlags.SUPPRESS_EMBEDS.value)
embed = DiscordEmbed(title="Your Title", description="Lorem ipsum dolor sit", color="03b2f8")
webhook.add_embed(embed)
# even if an embed has been added, it will not appear in the message.
response = webhook.execute()
```

### Use Proxies

```python
from discord_webhook import DiscordWebhook

proxies = {
  "http": "http://10.10.1.10:3128",
  "https": "http://10.10.1.10:1080",
}
webhook = DiscordWebhook(url="your webhook url", content="Webhook Message", proxies=proxies)
response = webhook.execute()
```
or
```python
from discord_webhook import DiscordWebhook

proxies = {
  "http": "http://10.10.1.10:3128",
  "https": "http://10.10.1.10:1080",
}
webhook = DiscordWebhook(url="your webhook url", content="Webhook Message")
webhook.set_proxies(proxies)
response = webhook.execute()
```

### Timeout

```python
from requests.exceptions import Timeout
from discord_webhook import DiscordWebhook, DiscordEmbed

# We will set ridiculously low timeout threshold for testing purposes
webhook = DiscordWebhook(url="your webhook url", timeout=0.1)

# You can also set timeout later using
# webhook.timeout = 0.1

embed = DiscordEmbed(title="Embed Title", description="Your Embed Description", color="03b2f8")

webhook.add_embed(embed)

# Handle timeout exception
try:
    response = webhook.execute()
except Timeout as err:
    print(f"Oops! Connection to Discord timed out: {err}")
```

### Async support
In order to use the async version, you need to install the package using:
```
pip install discord-webhook[async]
```
Example usage:
```python
import asyncio
from discord_webhook import AsyncDiscordWebhook


async def send_webhook(message):
    webhook = AsyncDiscordWebhook(url="your webhook url", content=message)
    await webhook.execute()


async def main():
    await asyncio.gather(
        send_webhook("Async webhook message 1"),
        send_webhook("Async webhook message 2"),
    )  # sends both messages asynchronously


asyncio.run(main())
```

### Use CLI

```
usage: discord_webhook [-h] -u URL [URL ...] -c CONTENT [--username USERNAME]
                       [--avatar_url AVATAR_URL]

Trigger discord webhook(s).

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -u URL [URL ...], --url URL [URL ...]
                        Webhook(s) url(s)
  -c CONTENT, --content CONTENT
                        Message content
  --username USERNAME   override the default username of the webhook
  --avatar_url AVATAR_URL
                        override the default avatar of the webhook
```
