discord
Discord is not a standard Linux command
SYNOPSIS
Discord is primarily accessed via a GUI client, not a command-line interface. Any command-line interaction requires external libraries.
PARAMETERS
N/A
Discord, when run via its desktop application, does not directly accept command-line parameters in the same way a typical Linux utility does. Any command-line parameters used would be associated with a third-party client or a script using a Discord API wrapper.
DESCRIPTION
Discord is not a standard Linux command.
It's a proprietary, freeware voice, video, and text chat application and digital distribution platform. While it primarily operates as a GUI application on various operating systems, including Linux, there isn't a direct equivalent to a typical command-line utility.
Users typically interact with Discord through the official Discord client or third-party clients that may have varying degrees of command-line integration for specific tasks like controlling the application or accessing data, depending on if the client supports such options.
There are also command-line tools (mainly built by third parties) that interact with the Discord API, such as discord.py (Python library) or discord.js (Javascript library), but those are not part of any standard Linux installation.
CAVEATS
Discord is proprietary software. Using third-party command-line tools or libraries to interact with the Discord API may violate Discord's terms of service and could result in account suspension or termination.
DISCORD API
The Discord API allows developers to create bots and applications that interact with the Discord platform programmatically. It's documented online and requires authorization tokens.
THIRD-PARTY LIBRARIES
Libraries like discord.py (Python) and discord.js (JavaScript) provide programmatic access to the Discord API from command line tools. These require installation via package managers (pip, npm, etc.).
INSTALLATION ON LINUX
Discord can be installed on Linux using package managers like `apt`, `yum`, `pacman`, or by downloading a `.deb` or `.tar.gz` package from the official Discord website. Installation methods vary depending on the distribution.
