A rich presence on Discord for Aseprite

Like some application plugins, it can be very cool to have more information on what we are doing on Aseprite on a discord profile by using Discord Rich Presence.

For exemple, the IDE Intellij had a plugin that can transform the simple activity status into a rich presence :

So, it cant be cool to see (for exemple):

  • How many time we are doing pixel art
  • Name of the file
  • Animating or not ?
  • etc …

(PS: I already asked that without any responses, maybe this post will be more clear)

From a very quick glance at the Discords developer documentation, it could be possible. It would require writing an Aseprite extension in Lua that would communicate with an additional NodeJS client shipped with the extension. This client would use the embedded app SDK to communicate with Discord to report your activity.

It sounds like a fun project to be honest, I wonder how many people would be interested in it though. :thinking:
