Using button components

Discord's newest features support sending buttons alongside messages, which when clicked by the user trigger an interaction which is routed by D++ as an on_button_click event. To make use of this, use this code as in this example.

#include <dpp/dpp.h>
#include <dpp/unicode_emoji.h>
 
int main() {
 
    dpp::cluster bot("token");
 
    bot.on_log(dpp::utility::cout_logger());
 
    /* The event is fired when someone issues your commands */
    bot.on_slashcommand([&bot](const dpp::slashcommand_t& event) {
        
        /* Check which command they ran */
        if (event.command.get_command_name() == "button") {
 
            /* Create a message */
            dpp::message msg(event.command.channel_id, "this text has a button");
            
            /* Add an action row, and then a button within the action row. */
            msg.add_component(
                dpp::component().add_component(
                    dpp::component().
                    set_label("Click me!").
                    set_type(dpp::cot_button).
                    set_emoji(dpp::unicode_emoji::smile).
                    set_style(dpp::cos_danger).
                    set_id("myid")
                )
            );
 
            /* Reply to the user with our message. */
            event.reply(msg);
        }
    });
 
    /* When a user clicks your button, the on_button_click event will fire,
     * containing the custom_id you defined in your button.
     */
    bot.on_button_click([&bot](const dpp::button_click_t& event) {
        /* Button clicks are still interactions, and must be replied to in some form to
         * prevent the "this interaction has failed" message from Discord to the user.
         */
        event.reply("You clicked: " + event.custom_id);
    });
 
    bot.on_ready([&bot](const dpp::ready_t& event) {
        if (dpp::run_once<struct register_bot_commands>()) {
 
            /* Create and register a command when the bot is ready */
            bot.global_command_create(dpp::slashcommand("button", "Send a message with a button!", bot.me.id));
        }
    });
 
    bot.start(dpp::st_wait);
 
    return 0;
}

When the feature is functioning, the code below will produce buttons on the reply message like in the image below:
