Message.getEmbeds() contains certain embeds only the second time they're sent about jda

[freya022]

Please provide code example for reproduction steps, I have no idea what getEmbeds method you're talking about, nor where the message comes from

If I had to guess, this is a message received event, in which case the embed resolution is done asynchronously (on Discord's side), as you may have noticed that embeds sometimes do take time to appear on Discord itself, it is therefore not a JDA issue.

There's also an event that fires when an embed get resolved, see MessageEmbedEvent

Sorry, I'm indeed talking about the message received event. I've also just found the line where they're parsed so I was about to say that it seems it's a problem on Discord's side:

JDA/src/main/java/net/dv8tion/jda/internal/entities/EntityBuilder.java

Line 1755 in 472cf52

final List<MessageEmbed> embeds = map(jsonObject, "embeds", this::createMessageEmbed);

Is there a way to check whether a message has any embeds, even if they aren't resolved yet? I'm constrained by needing the entire contents of a message and any embeds it may have at a singular point in time, so if I could check whether a message has embeds and then wait for them I would like to know about it. From what I've read in the wiki and javadocs so far, it doesn't seem like it.

There's no way to determine if a message will have embeds generated by links, only Discord's embed generator can do that.

You can check if a message has links, you should be able to find a few regex's online

Telling why you need to see generated embeds would also help

(I've updated the issue with the relevant code now)

My usecase is synchronizing Discord chat with Minecraft chat, where I want to send the Discord messages into the Minecraft chat after formatting them with Minecraft's Component system. In the code example given in the issue you can see where I access the embeds and format them.

Also, not every link leads to an embed, so checking whether there's a link and then waiting for the embeds event may just deadlock the program if done without a timeout. I want it to be as responsive as possible.

If there's no way to edit a MC message to include the embeds later, then you can't

Alright, there isn't. This answers my question. Thanks for your time.
