Send attachments/images/files to channel

[toastyy00]

I think this is quite impossible to do in console as it takes some images from local, But can it be?
Or use text/links instead images to be sent in order.

It is possible, but I will not include the attachment upload in the lib.

1. Upload attachments

API doc: https://discord.com/developers/docs/reference#uploading-files

You can also upload your image manually, then get its data in devtools at API call POST /channels/<channel_id>/attachments and copy its response data

2. Send a normal message and pass the attachment ID

{
  // Attachment API response
  const attachmentsRes = {
    attachments: [
      {
        id: 114,
        upload_url:
          'https://discord-attachments-uploads-prd.storage.googleapis.com/445349b3-0ef1-4e9d-be5c-1e782ac91de7/2022-02-15_12-06-24.png?upload_id=ADPycdtgy9J9bNZAj695f42Wpi5iiK1wTIwuBmqLi73-usKE8SFHxPTOwk3656xEBTAjckKPAXRzDad6S43PTdNAWkcuQA7Ijtux',
        upload_filename: '445349b3-0ef1-4e9d-be5c-1e782ac91de7/2022-02-15_12-06-24.png'
      }
    ]
  }

  attachmentsRes.attachments.forEach(x => {
    // Add `filename` required key
    x.filename = 'unknown.png'
    // They dont use `upload_filename` but `uploaded_filename` instead in messages API
    x.uploaded_filename = x.upload_filename
  })

  await api.sendMessage(cid, 'hello!', false, attachmentsRes)
}

To send multiple images, just repeat the process and do it yourself.
