Events

Be advised that currently the events that Discord sends over webhooks are very limited.

The event are determined by their file name, here's a typical event structure:

src
└ events
  ├ ApplicationAuthorized.ts # Triggered when your app was authorized by a user
  └ EntitlementCreate.ts # Triggered when an entitlement was created

This means that command file names must be globally unique. Yes, currently casing matters.

Event execution

All events are required to have a default export, this function is how the event will be handled.

// src/events/ApplicationAuthorized.ts
import type { Event } from "dressed";
 
export default async function (event: Event<"ApplicationAuthorized">) {
  console.log(
    event.user.username,
    "just added me to",
    event.guild ? event.guild.name : "themself",
  );
}

Events are not responsive, so there aren’t dedicated functions for sending replies, like there are for interactions.
