The type in question has since been renamed to CommandDataOption, as well as other such long types (https://github.com/serenity-rs/serenity/pull/1899). With forced functional programming, you may be referring to serenity's builders? For example .send_message(|m| m .content("text") .embed(|e| e .description("...") .timestamp("...") ) .components(|c| c .create_action_row(|r| r .create_button(|b| b .style(ButtonStyle::Primary) .label("press me") .custom_id("button1") ) ) ) ).await?; In the next breaking release (`next` branch in git), we have a new by-value builder style which has turned out to be a better design in many ways: .send_message(CreateMessa
Read the rest
ge::new() .content("text") .embed(CreateEmbed::new() .description("...") .timestamp("...") ) .components(CreateComponents::new() .add_action_row(CreateActionRow::new() .add_button( CreateButton::new(ButtonStyle::Primary, "button1").label("press me") ) ) ) ) And a PR is open to make the API even better (replace redundant CreateComponents with Vec<CreateActionRow>) and more will be coming presumably. Does this seem more rusty to you? We're open to more criticism - developmenet on serenity is quite active currently (e.g. 52 PRs merged in the last month)
