Expand description

Parse a value from a string in context of a received message.

This trait is a superset of std::str::FromStr. The difference is that this trait aims to support serenity-specific Discord types like Member or Message.

Trait implementations may do network requests as part of their parsing procedure.

Useful for implementing argument parsing in command frameworks.

For more information, see the ArgumentConvert implementation for Channel
