Option to send webhook + embed

[Ooze4327]

Can we have the option to send a webhook with an embedded message instead of a plain message?

What is your reason for preferring a webhook? Adding the option might add a lot of complexity in how messages are sent.
As for placing it in an embed, an option for it may be doable. As I'm currently working on small improvements and feature additions, I may just add that really soon.

I would like to send webhooks with an embed to align with other webhooks with embeds I have created and sent for various pings/announcements in the server. I use discohook to streamline and schedule everything. Sending as a webhook allows me to funnel what channel to go to, provide a design (profile picture, name, and corresponding emoji) to easily identify items as server related and important to the community.

I'll admit, I started thinking about that not long after commenting. It feels like a niche use case, but maybe I'd be proven wrong if I made the feature available. The customization aspect sounds pretty appealing.

I'm not familiar with Discohook. How would you combine it with this bot? Does it accept webhooks coming from other sources and meant for Discord, and then let you manage them?

It would match the customization/style of the messages Discohook sends if we are able to send by webhook with embed. It doesn't necessarily have to plug into Discohook- just the functionality to send webhooks with embeds would be enough.
