Media Center integration with Discord has been previously requested several times. (Here's one.)  I'd like to speak to that interest again with some Discord API breadcrumbs to hopefully leaven the prospect.

The ask is for functionality, similar to that found in Spotify, that enriches a Discord user's profile panel with their current Media Center activity.



Discord provides both an HTTP API and Gateway (WebSocket) API.  Based on a cursory reading, it appears that use of the Gateway API is required in order to update a user's status.

HTTP API:
https://discord.com/developers/docs/reference#http-api

Gateway API:
https://discord.com/developers/docs/topics/gateway

OAuth2 Scopes:
https://discord.com/developers/docs/topics/oauth2#shared-resources-oauth2-scopes

Some salient parts of the Gateway API:

• The Update Presence event:
  https://discord.com/developers/docs/topics/gateway-events#update-presence
• The Activity object structure:
  https://discord.com/developers/docs/topics/gateway-events#activity-object
  

For your future consideration, once again. Thank you.

Like before, I'd love to see this as well, since Discord is pretty popular these days.
