Basic Webhook

from discord_webhook import DiscordWebhook

webhook = DiscordWebhook(url='your webhook url', content='Webhook Message')
response = webhook.execute()

Manage being Rate Limited

from discord_webhook import DiscordWebhook

# if rate_limit_retry is True then in the event that you are being rate 
# limited by Discord your webhook will automatically be sent once the 
# rate limit has been lifted
webhook = DiscordWebhook(url='your webhook url', rate_limit_retry=True,
                         content='Webhook Message')
response = webhook.execute()

Multiple Webhook URLs

from discord_webhook import DiscordWebhook

webhook_urls = ['webhook url 1', 'webhook url 2']
webhook = DiscordWebhook(url=webhook_urls, content='Webhook Message')
response = webhook.execute()

Webhook with Embedded Content

from discord_webhook import DiscordWebhook, DiscordEmbed

webhook = DiscordWebhook(url='your webhook url')

# create embed object for webhook
# you can set the color as a decimal (color=242424) or hex (color='03b2f8') number
embed = DiscordEmbed(title='Your Title', description='Lorem ipsum dolor sit', color='03b2f8')

# add embed object to webhook
webhook.add_embed(embed)

response = webhook.execute()

from discord_webhook import DiscordWebhook, DiscordEmbed

webhook = DiscordWebhook(url='your webhook url')

# create embed object for webhook
embed = DiscordEmbed(title='Your Title', description='Lorem ipsum dolor sit', color='03b2f8')

# set author
embed.set_author(name='Author Name', url='author url', icon_url='author icon url')

# set image
embed.set_image(url='your image url')

# set thumbnail
embed.set_thumbnail(url='your thumbnail url')

# set footer
embed.set_footer(text='Embed Footer Text', icon_url='URL of icon')

# set timestamp (default is now)
embed.set_timestamp()

# add fields to embed
embed.add_embed_field(name='Field 1', value='Lorem ipsum')
embed.add_embed_field(name='Field 2', value='dolor sit')

# add embed object to webhook
webhook.add_embed(embed)

response = webhook.execute()

This is another example with embedded content

from discord_webhook import DiscordWebhook, DiscordEmbed

webhook = DiscordWebhook(url='your webhook url', username="New Webhook Username")

embed = DiscordEmbed(title='Embed Title', description='Your Embed Description', color='03b2f8')
embed.set_author(name='Author Name', url='https://github.com/lovvskillz', icon_url='https://avatars0.githubusercontent.com/u/14542790')
embed.set_footer(text='Embed Footer Text')
embed.set_timestamp()
embed.add_embed_field(name='Field 1', value='Lorem ipsum')
embed.add_embed_field(name='Field 2', value='dolor sit')
embed.add_embed_field(name='Field 3', value='amet consetetur')
embed.add_embed_field(name='Field 4', value='sadipscing elitr')

webhook.add_embed(embed)
response = webhook.execute()

By Default, The Embed fields are placed side by side. We can arrange them in a new line by setting inline=False as follows:

from discord_webhook import DiscordWebhook, DiscordEmbed

webhook = DiscordWebhook(url="your webhook url", username="New Webhook Username")

embed = DiscordEmbed(
    title="Embed Title", description="Your Embed Description", color='03b2f8'
)
embed.set_author(
    name="Author Name",
    url="https://github.com/lovvskillz",
    icon_url="https://avatars0.githubusercontent.com/u/14542790",
)
embed.set_footer(text="Embed Footer Text")
embed.set_timestamp()
# Set `inline=False` for the embed field to occupy the whole line
embed.add_embed_field(name="Field 1", value="Lorem ipsum", inline=False)
embed.add_embed_field(name="Field 2", value="dolor sit", inline=False)
embed.add_embed_field(name="Field 3", value="amet consetetur")
embed.add_embed_field(name="Field 4", value="sadipscing elitr")

webhook.add_embed(embed)
response = webhook.execute()

Edit Webhook Messages

from discord_webhook import DiscordWebhook
from time import sleep

webhook = DiscordWebhook(url='your webhook url', content='Webhook content before edit')
sent_webhook = webhook.execute()
webhook.content = 'After Edit'
sleep(10)
sent_webhook = webhook.edit(sent_webhook)

Delete Webhook Messages

from discord_webhook import DiscordWebhook
from time import sleep

webhook = DiscordWebhook(url='your webhook url', content='Webhook Content')
sent_webhook = webhook.execute()
sleep(10)
webhook.delete(sent_webhook)

Send Files

from discord_webhook import DiscordWebhook

webhook = DiscordWebhook(url='your webhook url', username="Webhook with files")

# send two images
with open("path/to/first/image.jpg", "rb") as f:
    webhook.add_file(file=f.read(), filename='example.jpg')
with open("path/to/second/image.jpg", "rb") as f:
    webhook.add_file(file=f.read(), filename='example2.jpg')

response = webhook.execute()

You can use uploaded attachments in Embeds:

from discord_webhook import DiscordWebhook, DiscordEmbed

webhook = DiscordWebhook(url='your webhook url')

with open("path/to/image.jpg", "rb") as f:
    webhook.add_file(file=f.read(), filename='example.jpg')

embed = DiscordEmbed(title='Embed Title', description='Your Embed Description', color='03b2f8')
embed.set_thumbnail(url='attachment://example.jpg')

webhook.add_embed(embed)
response = webhook.execute()

Remove Embeds and Files

from discord_webhook import DiscordWebhook, DiscordEmbed

webhook = DiscordWebhook(url='your webhook url')

with open("path/to/image.jpg", "rb") as f:
    webhook.add_file(file=f.read(), filename='example.jpg')

embed = DiscordEmbed(title='Embed Title', description='Your Embed Description', color='03b2f8')
embed.set_thumbnail(url='attachment://example.jpg')

webhook.add_embed(embed)
response = webhook.execute(remove_embeds=True, remove_files=True)
# webhook.files and webhook.embeds will be empty after webhook is executed
# You could also manually call the functions webhook.remove_files() and webhook.remove_embeds()

.remove_file() removes the given file

from discord_webhook import DiscordWebhook

webhook = DiscordWebhook(url='your webhook url', username="Webhook with files")

# send two images
with open("path/to/first/image.jpg", "rb") as f:
    webhook.add_file(file=f.read(), filename='example.jpg')
with open("path/to/second/image.jpg", "rb") as f:
    webhook.add_file(file=f.read(), filename='example2.jpg')
# remove 'example.jpg'
webhook.remove_file('example.jpg')
# only 'example2.jpg' is sent to the webhook
response = webhook.execute()

Allowed Mentions

Look into the Discord Docs for examples and for more explanation

This example would only ping user 123 and 124 but not everyone else.

from discord_webhook import DiscordWebhook

content = "@everyone say hello to our new friends <@123> and <@124>"
allowed_mentions = {
    "users": ["123", "124"]
}

webhook = DiscordWebhook(url='your webhook url', content=content, allowed_mentions=allowed_mentions)
response = webhook.execute()

Use Proxies

from discord_webhook import DiscordWebhook

proxies = {
  'http': 'http://10.10.1.10:3128',
  'https': 'http://10.10.1.10:1080',
}
webhook = DiscordWebhook(url='your webhook url', content='Webhook Message', proxies=proxies)
response = webhook.execute()

or

from discord_webhook import DiscordWebhook

proxies = {
  'http': 'http://10.10.1.10:3128',
  'https': 'http://10.10.1.10:1080',
}
webhook = DiscordWebhook(url='your webhook url', content='Webhook Message')
webhook.set_proxies(proxies)
response = webhook.execute()

Use CLI

usage: discord_webhook [-h] -u URL [URL ...] -c CONTENT [--username USERNAME]
                       [--avatar_url AVATAR_URL]

Trigger discord webhook(s).

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -u URL [URL ...], --url URL [URL ...]
                        Webhook(s) url(s)
  -c CONTENT, --content CONTENT
                        Message content
  --username USERNAME   override the default username of the webhook
  --avatar_url AVATAR_URL
                        override the default avatar of the webhook

Timeout

from requests.exceptions import Timeout
from discord_webhook import DiscordWebhook, DiscordEmbed

# We will set ridiculously low timeout threshold for testing purposes
webhook = DiscordWebhook(url='your webhook url', timeout=0.1)

# You can also set timeout later using
# webhook.timeout = 0.1

embed = DiscordEmbed(title='Embed Title', description='Your Embed Description', color='03b2f8')

webhook.add_embed(embed)

# Handle timeout exception
try:
    response = webhook.execute()
except Timeout as err:
    print(f'Oops! Connection to Discord timed out: {err}')

Async support

In order to use the async version, you need to install the package using:

pip install discord-webhook[async]

Example usage:

import asyncio
from discord_webhook import AsyncDiscordWebhook


async def send_webhook(message):
    webhook = AsyncDiscordWebhook(url='your webhook url',
                                  content=message)
    await webhook.execute()


async def main():
    await asyncio.gather(
        send_webhook('Async webhook message 1'),
        send_webhook('Async webhook message 2'),
    )  # sends both messages asynchronously


asyncio.run(main())
