disnake.Interaction vs disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction

[hitblast]

Hello! I'm recently migrating my Discord bot from discord.py==2.0 to disnake and I've been reading through code snippets and examples of migrated code. However, one thing that I stumbled upon is disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction which has been used for examples inside the library. How is this different from the pre-existing disnake.Interaction class?

Hello there,

disnake.Interaction is the base interaction class and allows disnake to create subclasses of that so that the specific subclasses have their own relevant features. For instance, disnake.GuildCommandInteraction would be a subclass of disnake.Interaction, but have guild-specific features, for example, inter.guild would never be typed as Guild | None, because it would be None if this is in a DM.

Therefore, disnake.ApplicationCommandInteraction would have the application command-specific attributes, whereas disnake.Interaction would lack that, as it's mainly just a base class for all these other instances like ApplicationCommandInteraction, MessageInteraction, GuildCommandInteraction, UserCommandInteraction, and so much more :)
