To some degree I feel like it would be appropriate to update this rest client to more properly reflect what is actually possible with Bearer tokens.\r\n\r\n# Details\r\nAs of right now, the `DiscordRestClient` is just a rest-only client based on the bot client. It may or may not be favorable to update this client to:\r\n\r\n- Properly document what endpoints can be used with which scopes (xmldocs)\r\n- Implement OAuth2 endpoint (`/oauth2/authorize`, `/oauth2/token`, `/oauth2/token/revoke`)\r\n- Implement additional rest endpoint not supported for bot tokens (`/users/@me` stuff, joining guilds for users, attach email address to `/users/@me`, etc etc etc)\r\n- Create a new config type for oauth2 clients, might be breaking change but come on, who actually uses the DiscordRestClient right now?\r\n- Implement client credentials\r\n- Throw errors _before_ making requests when the right scopes aren't available\r\n\r\n# Steps to reproduce\r\nNot applicable\r\n\r\n# Notes\r\n- This would mean a minor version bump for v4.x to implicate minor breaking changes\r\n- A more concrete TODO list would have to be constructed.\r\n- This may or may not bring minor (breaking?) changes to the internal rest client.\r\n- Yes, I only thought about this because I need it for a web dashboard lol\r\n- I'd be down to work on this myself, let me know","author":{"url":"https://github.com/Naamloos","@type":"Person","name":"Naamloos"},"datePublished":"2022-07-22T10:10:38.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":3},"url":"https://github.com/1354/DSharpPlus/issues/1354"}
