Using Sub-Commands in Slash Commands

This demonstrates how to use sub-commands within slash commands. Also shown below is an example of how to get a "resolved" parameter without having to use the cache or an extra API call.

#include <dpp/dpp.h>
#include <iostream>
int main() {
dpp::cluster bot("token");
/* Use the on_slashcommand event to look for commands */
bot.on_slashcommand([&bot](const dpp::slashcommand_t & event) {
dpp::command_interaction cmd_data = event.command.get_command_interaction();
/* Check if the command is the image command. */
if (event.command.get_command_name() == "image") {
/* Get the sub command */
auto subcommand = cmd_data.options[0];
/* Check if the subcommand is "dog" */
if (subcommand.name == "dog") {
/* Checks if the subcommand has any options. */
if (!subcommand.options.empty()) {
/* Get the user from the parameter */
dpp::user user = event.command.get_resolved_user(subcommand.get_value<dpp::snowflake>(0));
event.reply(user.get_mention() + " has now been turned into a dog.");
} else {
/* Reply if there were no options.. */
event.reply("No user specified");
}
} else if (subcommand.name == "cat") { /* Check if the subcommand is "cat". */
/* Checks if the subcommand has any options. */
if (!subcommand.options.empty()) {
/* Get the user from the parameter */
dpp::user user = event.command.get_resolved_user(subcommand.get_value<dpp::snowflake>(0));
event.reply(user.get_mention() + " has now been turned into a cat.");
} else {
/* Reply if there were no options.. */
event.reply("No user specified");
}
}
}
});
/* Executes on ready. */
bot.on_ready([&bot](const dpp::ready_t & event) {
if (dpp::run_once<struct register_bot_commands>()) {
/* Define a slash command. */
dpp::slashcommand image("image", "Send a specific image.", bot.me.id);
image.add_option(
/* Create a subcommand type option for "dog". */
dpp::command_option(dpp::co_sub_command, "dog", "Send a picture of a dog.")
.add_option(dpp::command_option(dpp::co_user, "user", "User to turn into a dog.", false))
);
image.add_option(
/* Create another subcommand type option for "cat". */
dpp::command_option(dpp::co_sub_command, "cat", "Send a picture of a cat.")
.add_option(dpp::command_option(dpp::co_user, "user", "User to turn into a cat.", false))
);
/* Create command */
bot.global_command_create(image);
}
});
bot.start(dpp::st_wait);
return 0;
}
