Discord

This module allows you to send data to Discord server. You can send the following

  • Daytime image
  • Nighttime Image
  • Startrails Image
  • Keogram Image
  • Timelapse Video

File Sizes

Discord implements a Rate limits on the API but it is very unlikely that you will hit any of the limits. Discord also implements a limit of 8 MB for any posted item. The timelapse videos may exceed this rate so if you wish to send them to Discord you will have to configure Allsky to limit video to less than 8 MB. The module checks before sending a file and if it exceeds the Discord limit the file is not sent and an error is logged in the allsky log file.
