🏷️   Expose your Discord presence and activities to a RESTful API and WebSocket in less than 10 seconds

Hey, I'm Phin 👋

I'm a 22 year old developer and founder. I like to write reliable code and hack with new, unique technologies.

Interested in realtime software, delightful & robust UX, network engineering and cute things! I'm currently learning Japanese and plan to move to Japan in the near future. にゃあああー

フィンさんです、僕は２２才で、デベロッパとネットワークエンジニア。信頼性の高いコードお開発したり、新しい技術を実験したりすることが好きです。僕主に React、Elixir、TypeScript を使います。

🔭 Current

I'm currently working on Hop - we're a cloud platform focusing on supporting real-time, high-bandwidth applications. With Hop Ignite, you can deploy any app to Hop directly from GitHub and achieve global low-latency content delivery - it's super easy, and we'll automatically handle new builds and rollouts when you push to the main branch. :)

⚡️ Experience

I like to say that I'm full-stack, though I'm mostly experienced in real-time systems. I highly leverage Elixir to build scalable realtime systems, and I pair that with React on the frontend. I've been working with React for about 7 years, Elixir for almost 6, and JavaScript for more than 8 years.

📫 Contact

To contact me quickly and easily, DM me on Twitter.

If it makes more sense, you can also email me:

General Inquiries: [email protected]
Hop-related Inquiries: [email protected]

If your inquiry is related to a network I manage or control (e.g. AS952 or AS399531), please send an email to my email listed on the respective WHOIS contact. If it's a P1 emergency, you can email [email protected].

lanyard's Issues

Add community projects to Readme

It would be nice to have community projects (e.g. use-lanyard) listed on the readme.

This could be a sticky issue and projects could be added in comments. Up for debate I guess

Discord Status

So im having an issue with the "discord_status":"..." not showing up correctly and I have as my snippet:

				{#if userPresence.discord_status === 'offline'}
					<br />
					Offline
				{:else}
					<div
						class="inline-block text-sm drop-shadow-3xl shadow-orange-300/50 bg-gradient-to-r from-blue-500/[.15] ring-2 ring-orange-800/95 rounded-md p-3 -ml-6"
					>
						{#if userPresence.discord_status === 'idle'}
							🟡 Idle&nbsp;&nbsp;
						{:else if userPresence.discord_status === 'dnd'}
							🟠 Do Not Disturb&nbsp;&nbsp;
						{:else}
							🟢 Online&nbsp;
						{/if} 

and my <script></script> is:

	// check if the user is currently in VSCode
	$: inVSCode =
		userPresence?.data?.discord_status == 'dnd' &&
		userPresence?.data?.activities?.find((activity) => activity?.name == 'Visual Studio Code');

	// get the icon to display based on whether the user is listening to Spotify or coding in VSCode
	$: statusIcon = inVSCode ? VSCODE_ICON : currentActivity ? SPOTIFY_ICON : null;

	// check if the user is online or idle
	$: isOnline =
		userPresence?.discord_status === 'online' || userPresence?.discord_status === 'idle';

	// get the details of the user's current VSCode session
	$: vsCodeSession = userPresence?.data?.activities?.find(
		(activity) => activity?.name === 'Visual Studio Code'
	);

	// get the name and ID of the current file being edited
	$: fileName = vsCodeSession?.details?.match(/(?<=📁\s).+(?=\s\|)/)?.[0];
	$: fileId = vsCodeSession?.id;

	// get the line number being edited
	$: lineNum = vsCodeSession?.details?.match(/(?<=📝 Editing line ).+(?=\/)/)?.[0] ?? '';

	// construct the status message to display
	$: statusMessage =
		isOnline && inVSCode && fileName && lineNum
			? `Editing ${fileName} on line ${lineNum} in VSCode`
			: isOnline && currentActivity
			? `Listening to ${currentSong}`
			: 'Offline';
			```
So when I manually change the status to test it, it works via lanyard api and shows the correct status but, it change on my webpage.

Is anyone else having this issue or is it just me?

Showing Discord Presence

How can I show my RPC on my website? @Phineas

Hello Phineas Great! hurrah

Hi Phin hurrah .-.

Suggestion: Custom CORS Header?

Now, Every website can access our Discord status with the lanyard API but with custom CORS (cross-origin resource sharing) headers we can set what websites can access our status.

Time Elapsed?

I'd like to be able to see time elapsed with Lanyard.

Missing info at example response: spotify track id

Real Response:

"spotify": {
            "track_id": "3iag81mU7BylirRwRYXd8E",
            "timestamps": {
                "start": 1628585067370,
                "end": 1628585292130
            },
            "song": "I'm Only Joking",
            "artist": "KONGOS",
            "album_art_url": "https://i.scdn.co/image/ab67616d0000b27367ff87e2839c5c93bb6e6a6a",
            "album": "Lunatic"
},

the one in the readme:

"spotify": {
      "timestamps": {
        "start": 1615529820677,
        "end": 1615530068733
      },
      "song": "Let Go",
      "artist": "Ark Patrol; Veronika Redd",
      "album_art_url": "https://i.scdn.co/image/ab67616d0000b27364840995fe43bb2ec73a241d",
      "album": "Let Go"
},

Check if users avatar is gif [ suggestion ]

I think user avatar should be an object like:

{
  avatar: {
    id: 31980618227fc22a5ba23ef9386d41d0,
    animated: false
  }
}

it would be easier.. i guess?

Last seen feature

Adding last_seen timestamp when user is offline/invisible might be useful since it can tell when the last time user is active.

connection that looks like tls received on a clear channel

Hey,
I've encountered spam of this warning, when trying to load a []:4001.
I know that it's just practically saying the connection isn't secured, but I don't know why it's always throwing me a connection reset (ERR_CONNECTION_RESET).

Mentioned warning:

Error in Self Hosting

{"success":false,"error":{"message":"User is not being monitored by Lanyard","code":"user_not_monitored"}}

Lanyard get button url?

Lanyard returns the button name, but what about the URL?

Add ademcancertel to README

My Discord spotify website is also under my information.
(https://ademcancertel-github-io.vercel.app/)

Discord Bio & Banner?

Hey there,
would it be possible to also put a user's bio and their banner on the User Endpoint?

Needed help.

Hello!

Basically I have some problems with my website.
At first, timestamps are not working correctly.

And second. Song/video doesnt update some times

And finally. When presence doesnt have timestamp, console goes crazy.

Discord Bots?

Make it so that we can invite bots to the lanyard server (without permissions ofc) so that we can see if our bots is online or not

Implement new existing badges

List of some emblems ->

Unobtainable Badges:

I ended up finding other emblems, but I don't know if it's real:

New username system

Hello, as you have probably seen already, usernames are evolving on discord. Therefore, the old way of displaying the tag will become obsolete (see image).

Are there any update planned to evolve according to these changes ?

I'm also mentionning that a new badge has also appeared in relation to these changes so maybe it could be added as well.

Lanyard API not working

On my Website avyanshralph.vercel.app The Discord Activity status is not showing when hosted on vercel but it shows when I host it locally... Pls tell the reason behind this issue
