Mark as read for Discord

This script will cycle all servers you're in and mark them all as read! Just run

npm install request

node markasread.js <your discord token>

markasread.js

var token = "idk"
console.log("> Hello.")
var base = "https://discordapp.com/api/v6"

const request = require("request")
if (process.argv[2] != undefined) {
    token = process.argv[2]
    console.log(" -> Using provided token")
}else {console.log(" -> Using default token")}

console.log("> Getting guilds...")
request({
    "url": base + "/users/@me/guilds",
    "headers": {
        "authorization": token
    }
}, (error, resp, body) => {
    if (error) {
        console.error(error)
    }else {
        if (resp.statusCode == 200) {
            markAllRead(JSON.parse(body))
        }else {
            console.log("  -> Authentication (probably) failed.")
        }
    }
})

function markAllRead(guilds) {
    console.log(" -> Got " + guilds.length + " guilds.\n> ACK'ing all guilds\n -> This will take " + guilds.length + " seconds.")
    // gotta go slow. (1/second)
    var loops = 0
    var interations = guilds.length
    var canContinue = true;
    var failed = 0    
    var markasread = setInterval(() => {
        var guild = guilds[loops]
        if (canContinue) {
            console.log("   -> ACK: " + guild["name"] + "(" + guild["id"] + ")")
            canContinue = false;
            request.post(base + "/guilds/" + guild["id"] + "/ack", {
                "headers": {"authorization": token}
            }, (error, resp, body) => {
                if (error) {
                    console.error(error)
                }else {

                        failed = 0
                    }else {
                        console.log("    -> FAIL! (" + resp.statusCode + ")")
                        console.log(body)
                    }
                }
            })
        }else {console.log("  -> Waiting for network...")
    failed++}
        if (failed == 10) {
            console.error("> Exit\n -> Suspected network fault.")
            process.exit(1)
        }
        if (canContinue) {loops++}
        if (loops == interations) {
            console.log("-> TIME! \n --> All done!")
            clearInterval(markasread)
        }
    }, 1000)
}

What would I need to add to this script to get it to only mark muted channels as read?

Yeesh I haven't looked at this script for a little while, not really kept up with the Discord API either. If it still works, I'm sure you'll be able to find the specific channel information for the guilds form /channel/:id - but scanning every channel you have access to would take a while given the rate limits.

I've mostly gone with just pressing the mark all as read button in the inbox tray in Discord now, but I suppose that probably does the same thing.

Would love to see this re-made and mark all servers as read since discord currently doesn't let you mark all of them as read and has to be manually done.

@T-byte-sketch - you can mark as read in Discord, it's in the inbox tray -> unread -> Mark Inbox as Read

I suppose I could re-make it, but when it's there in the normal client I don't think it's worth it honestly.

is it possible to specifically mark a message as read? the message should include a reply mention or a @ mention
