Ability to delete messages sent from a webhook a few days later.

I want to delete all the messages I sent with DiscordWebhook but not in the same run as in your example:

from discord_webhook import DiscordWebhook
from time import sleep

webhook = DiscordWebhook(url='your webhook url', content='Webhook Content')
sent_webhook = webhook.execute()
sleep(10)
webhook.delete(sent_webhook)

I would like something like:

from discord_webhook import DiscordWebhook

webhook = DiscordWebhook(url='your webhook url', content='Webhook Content')
sent_webhook = webhook.execute()
sent_webhook .save('sent_webhook .swh')

And then a few days later, the following imaginary code is executed:

from discord_webhook import DiscordWebhook

webhook, sent_webhook = DiscordWebhook(file='sent_webhook.swh')
webhook.delete(sent_webhook)

Is it possible?

@beuaaa I’m currently rewriting the code to allow for something like this. In the end, this is how it will be possible:

webhook = DiscordWebhook(url="url")
webhook.execute()
print(webhook.id)

# ... after some period of time

webhook = DiscordWebhook(url="url", id="webhook id")
response = webhook.delete()

So you’ll need to save the returned webhook id which will be available in the new webhook.id property.

Thanks a lot @kshubham506 . I think you did the work with your fork so I will use your fork while this new feature is added in the original repo. With your fork how do you get the id of the sent message?

@lovvskillz I hope this change will be merged into this repo. Do you think there is a chance to merge this new feature? If yes, when?

HI @beuaaa , I use redis to store the sent message ids, ( i don’t need the ids’ indefinitely so redis pretty much solves all my use cases)
