feat(channels): add Discord as a social channel - #100
Merged
Conversation
Connect a Discord server via OAuth (bot authorization) and schedule/publish messages to its channels, with mentions and rich embeds. - Connect: custom Socialite Discord provider (bot scope) maps the authorized guild to a SocialAccount; throws if no server was authorized. - Publish: DiscordPublisher posts via the global bot token, validates the chosen channel belongs to the connected guild (anti cross-guild), optimizes media, builds allowed_mentions only from explicit mention chips (no accidental pings), and renders rich embeds. - Compose: per-post channel picker (live lookup), mention autocomplete and an embed editor, gated by a required-channel compliance rule; Discord post preview. - Enum/config/content-type wiring, ConnectionVerifier health check, throttled lookup endpoints, i18n (en/es/pt-BR), and tests. Operators must create a Discord application and set DISCORD_CLIENT_ID, DISCORD_CLIENT_SECRET, DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN and DISCORD_CLIENT_REDIRECT.
…a test - Add a placeholder discord.png so the brand mark isn't a broken image (operators can swap in the official logo). - Keep a saved Discord channel selectable before the live channel list loads (or if the lookup is unavailable), so editing a post never loses the channel. - Cover the media multipart upload path (payload_json + files[N]) with a test.
…election - Introduced caching for Discord channel lookups, reducing API calls and improving performance. - Updated the DiscordSettings component to use a SearchableSelect for better user experience when selecting channels. - Added new language strings for channel search and no channels found messages in English, Spanish, and Portuguese. - Updated tests to ensure channel list caching is isolated between runs.
Persist channel_name (display-only) so the preview header shows the chosen channel; render mentions as pills; restyle the preview to a light theme to match the rest of the app.
…an use Only text (0) and announcement (5) channels accept a direct message — forum (15) and media (16) require thread creation, so they're dropped from the picker (they returned 'non-text channel'). Channels are also filtered by the bot's effective VIEW_CHANNEL + SEND_MESSAGES, computed from role base perms and channel overwrites (Discord's documented algorithm), with a safe fallback to type-only filtering when the bot's roles can't be resolved.
Add per-post Discord metrics (server member count, thread replies as comments, and reaction counts) read live with the bot token via GET message + guild with_counts, wired into PostMetricsFetcher. Redesign the shared post metrics row: monochrome line icons for member/comment counts vs clean reaction pills, so audience stats read distinctly from reactions. Applies to Telegram too.

What
Adds Discord as a connectable social channel: connect a server via OAuth (bot authorization) and schedule/publish messages to its text channels, with mentions and rich embeds.
Modeled like the existing platforms — connect mirrors the OAuth flow (custom Socialite provider, à la Instagram), publishing mirrors the bot-token pattern (à la Telegram). Account = server (guild); the channel is chosen per post (stored in
PostPlatform.meta).How it works
DiscordProvider(Socialite,bot+identify+guildsscope) authorizes adding the shared bot to the user's server; the authorized guild becomes theSocialAccount. Throws (no broken account) if no server was authorized.DiscordPublisherposts with the global bot token:channel_idbelongs to the connected guild (prevents cross-guild posting via the shared bot);MediaOptimizer) and uploads as attachments;allowed_mentionsonly from explicit mention chips (a literal@everyonetyped in shared content never pings);PlatformUnavailableExceptionso the job retries instead of failing permanently.Platform::Discord+ContentType::DiscordMessage(all enum arms),ConnectionVerifierhealth check (bot still in guild), throttled lookup endpoints, i18n in en/es/pt-BR.Operator setup
Create a Discord application + bot and set:
DISCORD_CLIENT_ID,DISCORD_CLIENT_SECRET,DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN,DISCORD_CLIENT_REDIRECT(optional:DISCORD_PERMISSIONS,DISCORD_ENABLED). Add the brand assetpublic/images/accounts/discord.png.Testing
DiscordPublisherTest— text, mentions (allowed_mentions), embeds, channel-not-in-guild, missing channel, transient-retry, error mapping.DiscordLookupTest— channel filtering, mention targets, graceful degradation on API failure, cross-workspace 403.DiscordControllerTest— connect redirect, callback creates account, fails gracefully with no guild.ConnectionVerifierTest— connected/disconnected guild.UpdatePostRequestTest— channel required on publish, allowed on draft.Out of scope
Threads; richer per-post content overrides. The media-URL fetch follows the same pattern as every other byte-uploading publisher.
