A Kotlin-first (and Java) framework that makes creating Discord bots a piece of cake, using the JDA library.

There is a newer version: 3.0.0-alpha.22

import io.github.freya022.botcommands.api.components.builder.BuilderInstanceHolder

/**
 * Since the instances must be returned to provide a builder-like experience for JVM users,
 * we need to get the instance from the implementation itself
 *
 * However, overriding the [instance] property on the implementation does not allow delegates to access it,
 * as the delegates are in their own world.
 *
 * Kotlin does not support `this` in super constructors or in delegates,
 * even though this should be possible by just looking at the decompiled java code
 *
 * To work around this, we introduce [InstanceRetriever], which will hold our instance,
 * and will only be filled in the implementation's constructor, and so, the instance will be available post-construct.
