guild

Guild is a Command Line Utility that allows you to post code snippets from a file to a Discord channel.

How does it work?

By utilizing Serentiy to access the Discord API, guild communicates with your Discord server using Webhooks. This allows guild to post a message to Discord on its own without having to type anything into Discord itself.
