Dennis.DSharpPlus.PaginatedSelects 1.0.0

Paginated Selects

This extension adds paginated select components to DSharpPlus. (badly)

How to use

First, activate the extension on your discord client

using DSharpPlus.PaginatedSelects;

var paginatedExtension = client.UsePaginatedSelects();

Creating a paginated select

1. Using AddPaginatedSelect

PaginatedSelect paginated = new PaginatedSelect(/* List<DiscordSelectComponentOption> here */);
// OR
var normalSelect = new DiscordSelectComponent()
{
	// bla bla
};
var paginated = normalSelect.ToPaginatedSelect();

DiscordSelectComponent firstPage = paginatedExtension.AddPaginatedSelect("myselect", paginated);

2. Using the extension methods on builders (DiscordInteractionResponseBuilder, DiscordFollowupMessageBuilder, DiscordWebhookBuilder)

// For paginated selects that was already created:
await ctx.EditResponseAsync(new DiscordWebhookBuilder()
				.WithContent("Hi! Where are you from?")
				.AddPaginatedSelect("myselect"));

// To create a new one:
await ctx.EditResponseAsync(new DiscordWebhookBuilder()
				.WithContent("Hi! Where are you from?")
				.AddPaginatedSelect("myselect", new PaginatedSelect(new(){
					new("America", "us"),
					new("France", "fr"),
					new("Germany", "gb"),
					new("Turkey", "shit"),
					// ...
				})));
// Note: you can also make a DiscordSelectComponent and supply it, the extension will call ToPaginatedSelect() on it.

I want it gone after its used

// For this paginated select:
new PaginatedSelect()
{
	AutoRemoveSelect = true,
};

// For all of the selects (that doesnt set PaginatedSelect#AutoRemoveSelect to false)
new PaginatedSelectsConfiguration()
{
	AutoRemoveSelect = true,
};

I want the other contents of the message changed after the page changes

Sure! (do it yourself)

new PaginatedSelect()
{
	CustomRender = (CustomRenderContext ctx) => {
		ctx.Interaction.DoStuff();
		// Note: you must supply the select component too
		// You can use pre-made ctx.Select and PaginatedSelectsExtension.Utils.ReplaceComponent ;)
	}
};

Want more?

This extension is highly configurable. You can set a default placeholder text for your selects (PaginatedSelectsConfiguration) and override them per-select. (PaginatedSelect)

You can also change the next and previous page select options in the configuration.

new PaginatedSelectsConfiguration()
{
	NextPageOption = new("NEXTTTT!!", "_", "next page uwu"),
	PreviousPageOption = new("fuck go back", "_", "oh god did i go too far"),
};

Pull requests and issues are welcome (please)

Formatting

The label, description and the placeholder/suffix in the configuration allow for custom formatting.

• {page} will turn into the page number
• {pagecount} will turn into the total number of pages
