### Embeds
Embeds are special messages with boarders and images. [Example embed created by discord-haskell](./examples/embed-photo.jpg)
The `Embed` record (and sub-records) store embed data received from Discord.
The `CreateEmbed` record stores data when we want to create an embed.
`CreateEmbed` has a `Default` instance, so you only need to specify the fields you use:
```haskell
_ <- restCall (R.CreateMessageEmbed <channel_id> "Pong!" $
def { createEmbedTitle = "Pong Embed"
, createEmbedImage = Just $ CreateEmbedImageUpload <bytestring>
, createEmbedThumbnail = Just $ CreateEmbedImageUrl
"https://avatars2.githubusercontent.com/u/37496339"
})
```
Uploading a file each time is slow, prefer uploading images to a hosting site like imgur.com, and then referencing them.
