Sparkle Convenience
A wrapper over Twilight that's designed to be convenient to use, without
relying on callbacks and mostly following Twilight patterns while making your life easier
You should use this if you:
- Simply want something easy to use
- Don't like writing boilerplate
- Don't like thinking too much about the structure of your code
You shouldn't use this if you:
- Want the maximum performance you can get
- Want to customize as much as you can
- Want something more low-level
- Are willing to give up the pros of this crate for these
Interaction Handling
Provides methods to handle interactions conveniently:
- Do all interaction handling without rewriting the ID and token using a handle
- Create a followup response with a reply struct using the builder-pattern, which can be reused easily
- Defer an interaction with one method
- Create an autocomplete or modal response with minimal boilerplate
Error Handling
Provides an enum to conveniently handle errors:
- Provides an error enum that combines user and internal errors
- Easily check that the bot has the permissions required to run a command, and tell the user when it doesn't
- Handle internal errors by printing them, writing them to a file and executing a webhook, all optionally
Caching
HTTP-fallback is not a good idea for many reasons, and there isn't much this crate could provide besides that, but
caching everything possible will give you a peace of mind. If memory usage is a concern, consider
using Sparkle Cache
