2.10.1 Released!

Wed, 18 Apr 2018 11:22:00 +0000

Changelog

This release doesn’t contain any really notable internal changes. This release was instead pushed so that we could promote the fact we now deploy our artifacts to JCenter and Maven Central. This means that our Jitpack repository is now DEPRECATED for RELEASES, instead it should only be used for getting snapshots of dev builds. Please take a look at the updated readme to learn how your pom.xml or build.gradle should be formatted (note the lack of the Jitpack repository and the group id change). Additionally, it should be noted that bots depending on 2.x builds should prefer JCenter builds since it relies on some dependencies only available on that repository.

2.10 Released!

Changelog

This release comes with some breaking changes to better help maintain the current project. As we inch closer towards v3’s release it is imperative that we keep v2 as easy to maintain as possible, so it is likely future versions may have equally breaking changes if they are necessary.

If you want to learn more on the progress on v3, be on the lookout for a blog post.

###+ Additions

Added ActivityType
Added support for animated emojis
Added retry for CloudFlare errors
Added support for (some) Unicode in text channels

###* Changes

Reworked presence. This is a breaking change as it has removed and added various methods. The rework aims to better manipulate your bot’s presence and allow a lot more customization than previously allocated with far fewer methods.
All instances of LocalDateTime has been converted to Instance to better represent the actual data that is being manipulated and to mitigate various confusion on the usage of such methods. This is also a breaking change.
Fixed ordering of MessageHistory#getMessageHistory when all the messages were in the cache.
Fixed NPE if JARs did not have a Manifest for modules.
Fixed NPE when automatically enabling modules.
ReadyEvent wait time now scales linearly with guild count.
Fixed numerous bugs related to reactions.
Fixed NPEs and UOEs for MessageUpdateEvents
Fixed NPEs on Reaction Add/Remove Events
Fixed IGuild#getOwner occasionally returning null
Increased concurrency for DispatchHandler
Fixed NFEs when parsing certain channel IDs
Changed RequestBuffer.request(IVoiceRequest) to be more fluent to use.

###- Removed Anything removed is related to previously mentioned changes.

New Website!

Sun, 28 May 2017 11:22:00 +0000

The site

Discord4J is undergoing major revisions as part of version 3.0. Part of this includes a brand new website! Currently the site is missing some areas including: a dedicated wiki, CI, and javadocs section. But I hope to add these in the near future, in the meantime they redirect to our current hosts.

Other stuff

In addition to the new site, we are currently planning the full rewrite of Discord4J. The dev team is working hard to make sure this is well thought-out, powerful and intuitive. We expect for Discord4J 3.0 to have some form of release within the next few months. Additionally, development of Discord4J will be done under our new Discord4J Github Organization, as such we plan to move the current repository to this organization once Discord4J 3.0 is near completion.
