/embedbuilder

A discord embed builder with both a GUI and JSON editor

Primary LanguageJavaScriptMIT LicenseMIT

An embed visualizer

Visualize embed or message content from JSON input or provided GUI editor.

This can be used for discord bot embed commands. It can also be intergreted into your Discord bot's website.

Aside the JSON editor, it also includes a GUI editor which converts to JSON for simplicity.

GUI image JSON image

Supported URL Parameters

Editor param (/?editor=json)

The GUI editor is used by default. If 'editor' parameter is set with it's value set to "json", the website will use the JSON editor by default instead. Setting the value to anything else other than 'json' will be ignored.

Example URL: https://glitchii.github.io/embedbuilder/?editor=json

Data param (/?data=...)

A data param is used to specify the dafault json data to be used when the website loads. Note that value of the data param should be URL encoded first, then base64 encoded last. Calling the jsonToBase64 fuction in /assets/script.js does that and returns the encoded JSON data.

Example URL:
https://glitchii.github.io/embedbuilder/?data=JTdCJTIyZW1iZWQlMjIlM0ElN0IlMjJ0aXRsZSUyMiUzQSUyMkxvcmVtJTIwaXBzdW0lMjIlMkMlMjJkZXNjcmlwdGlvbiUyMiUzQSUyMkRvbG9yJTIwc2l0JTIwYW1ldC4uLiUyMiUyQyUyMmNvbG9yJTIyJTNBMzkxMjklN0QlN0Q=

Other parameters

Params that end with = in the list below need a value, those that don't will always be truthy when set either with or with no value.

Example URL with all parameters:

https://glitchii.github.io/embedbuilder/?username=Troy&verified&reverse&guitabs=image,footer&avatar=https://cdn.discordapp.com/avatars/663074487335649292/576eb5f13519b9da10ba7807bdd83fab.webp?size=128

Intergretting into your website

You are free to use this in your website. Intergretting into your websites allows sending the embed to Discord with a few changes, and using 'formmaters' eg. '{ server_name }' or '{ user_name }' etc. A not so bad downside would be that you'd probably have to keep up with fixes and updates.
If all you want is to have an embed builder in your website with no additional features and maybe using your own bot name and avatar, etc., you could iframe https://glitchii.github.io/embedbuilder into your website with a few of the parameters above if needed instead.
