spectre-html-transcripts (Selfbot v13)

Spectre HTML Transcripts is a node.js module to generate nice looking HTML transcripts. Processes discord markdown like bold, italics, ~~strikethroughs~~, and more. Nicely formats attachments and embeds. Built in XSS protection, preventing users from inserting arbitrary html tags.

This module can format the following:

• Discord flavored markdown
  • Uses discord-markdown-parser
  • Allows for complex markdown syntax to be parsed properly
• Embeds
• System messages
  • Join messages
  • Message Pins
  • Boost messages
• Slash commands
  • Will show the name of the command in the same style as Discord
• Buttons
• Reactions
• Attachments
  • Images, videos, audio, and generic files
• Replies
• Mentions
• Threads

This fork targets discord.js-selfbot-v13 (selfbot) and supports its v3.x releases.

Styles from @derockdev/discord-components. Behind the scenes, this package uses React SSR to generate a static site.

Selfbot (discord.js-selfbot-v13) notes ⚠️

This fork is tailored to work with discord.js-selfbot-v13 (v3.x). Install it in your project and ensure it's available as a peer dependency:

npm install discord.js-selfbot-v13@^3.7.1

Note: Using selfbots may violate Discord's Terms of Service. Use at your own risk.

🖨️ Example Output

📝 Usage

Example usage using the built in message fetcher.

const spectreTranscripts = require('spectre-html-transcripts');
// or (if using typescript) import * as spectreTranscripts from 'spectre-html-transcripts';

const channel = message.channel; // or however you get your TextChannel

// Must be awaited
const attachment = await spectreTranscripts.createTranscript(channel);

channel.send({
  files: [attachment],
});

Or if you prefer, you can pass in your own messages.

const spectreTranscripts = require('spectre-html-transcripts');
// or (if using typescript) import * as spectreTranscripts from 'spectre-html-transcripts';

const messages = someWayToGetMessages(); // Must be Collection<string, Message> or Message[]
const channel = someWayToGetChannel(); // Used for ticket name, guild icon, and guild name

// Must be awaited
const attachment = await spectreTranscripts.generateFromMessages(messages, channel);

channel.send({
  files: [attachment],
});

⚙️ Configuration

Both methods of generating a transcript allow for an option object as the last parameter. All configuration options are optional!

Built in Message Fetcher

const attachment = await discordTranscripts.createTranscript(channel, {
    limit: -1, // Max amount of messages to fetch. `-1` recursively fetches.
    returnType: 'attachment', // Valid options: 'buffer' | 'string' | 'attachment' Default: 'attachment' OR use the enum ExportReturnType
    filename: 'transcript.html', // Only valid with returnType is 'attachment'. Name of attachment.
    saveImages: false, // Download all images and include the image data in the HTML (allows viewing the image even after it has been deleted) (! WILL INCREASE FILE SIZE !)
    footerText: "Exported {number} message{s}", // Change text at footer, don't forget to put {number} to show how much messages got exported, and {s} for plural
    callbacks: {
      // register custom callbacks for the following:
      resolveChannel: (channelId: string) => Awaitable<Channel | null>,
      resolveUser: (userId: string) => Awaitable<User | null>,
      resolveRole: (roleId: string) => Awaitable<Role | null>,
      resolveImageSrc: (
        attachment: APIAttachment,
        message: APIMessage
      ) => Awaitable<string | null | undefined>
    },
    poweredBy: true, // Whether to include the "Powered by spectre-html-transcripts" footer
    hydrate: true, // Whether to hydrate the html server-side
    filter: (message) => true // Filter messages, e.g. (message) => !message.author.bot
});

Providing your own messages

const attachment = await discordTranscripts.generateFromMessages(messages, channel, {
  // Same as createTranscript, except no limit or filter
});

Compressing images

If saveImages is set to true, all images will be downloaded and stored in the file as-is. You can optionally enable compression by installing the sharp module and setting the following options:

callbacks: {
  resolveImageSrc: new TranscriptImageDownloader()
    .withMaxSize(5120) // 5MB in KB
    .withCompression(40, true) // 40% quality, convert to webp
    .build(),
},

Note that, in a more advanced setup, you could store a copy of the files and return an entirely new URL pointing to your own image hosting site by implementing a custom resolveImageSrc function.
