How to get Discord alarm for Diablo IV world Boss via python

This posting is more simple and general way for getting alarm via discord bot.

This posting is just added discord related code from previous article.

The Discord is provide to WebHook service that is simply bot service.

If using WebHook URL, we can send to message on channel or your server.

Let's go enjoy your diablo world.

1. Create a channel or server on discord.

2. Edit Channel (for example : General)

3. Go to Apps and "create a webhook" click.

4. Edit Bot Name and Click the "Copy webhook URL"

5. We can send to message in channel via just using this URL. This is sample python code :

import requests

WEBHOOK_URL = 'Input your webhook url'

def send_message(message):
    requests.post(WEBHOOK_URL, data=message)

message = {'content':'Hello! Discord!!'}
send_message(message)

6. Add to my World Boss track and Notificator code :

    send_discord(content)

except Exception as e:
    logger.error(f"Error: {e}")

7. Execution python.

# python Diablo4_alert.py

This point is no need any registering development group for using discord API and no need any token/authorization.

Using Webhook URL service, we can more simply get alarm for World Boss Re-gen :)
