Handling Events

Currently the @lilybird/handlers package provides only one way of handling events, however, I can assure you there are more to come.

Creating a listener

index.ts

import { createClient, Intents } from "lilybird";
import { createHandler } from "@lilybird/handlers/simple";

const listeners = await createHandler({
    dirs: {
        events: `${import.meta.dir}/events`,
    }
})

await createClient({
  token: process.env.TOKEN,
  intents: [Intents.GUILDS],
  listeners: {/* your listeners */}
  ...listeners
})

events/ping.ts

import { Event } from "@lilybird/handlers/simple";

export default {
  event: "ready",
  run: (client) => {
    console.log(`Logged in as ${client.user.username}`);
  },
// This duplication is needed for TypeScript types to work properly
// This is also why this API isn't the best
} satisfies Event<"ready">
