For example:

To post a message to Discord, you open a TLS connection to discord.com on port 443.

Then you send

POST /api/webhooks/($id)/($token) HTTP/1.1
Host: discord.com
Connection: close
User-Agent: ($some name for your program)
Content-Type: application/json
Content-Length: ($character count of the below)

{"content":"Hello, I am a bot!","username":"Anne the droid","avatar_url":"https://example.org/icon.png"}

Content may have markdown, username and avatar_url are optional.

To get the id and token, you go to a channel's Integration settings, "New Webhook", and there you will see a /api/webhooks/.../.... The token is the longer last part of the URL, and the ID the decimal number before it.

If you want to verify the message has been sent, add ?wait=true to the path in POST, and you won't get a reply until it has.

This can all be implemented in 60 lines of Lua, with only a socket library.
