Ban Command Not Working

[spare perch]

I'm trying to create a ban command for my bot that primarily works via the user's ID number, but I keep getting an error when I try testing it.

The code I am using is here: https://pastebin.com/p5BPttKn

The error I get is: TypeError: userid.ban is not a function

Is it even possible to do this, or have I missed something (blatantly obvious, given my track record).

string.ban is not a function
use guild.bans.create(id)

[low moss]

you can use ids in user options, no need to have a string for the name and one for the id

[crimson granite]

^ also

And how would I attach the reason to that?

I tried guild.bans.create(id) and got an error: ReferenceError: guild is not defined

[white maple]

Define it

[spare perch]

Tweaked a couple of things; the ban is now being applied, but the message explaining why the user was banned isn't being sent to the channel I want.

TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'cache')

Code has been updated on Pastebin.

Someone can correct me if I’m wrong however I don’t believe interaction.guilds exists so use something like <client>.guilds

But then you may as well use interaction.client.channels

[maiden yoke]

yeah interaction.guilds doesnt exist

interaction.guild.channels.cache.get("CHANNEL ID").send(...)``` is better

[spare perch]

Okay, that's working now. All that remains is to attach a reason to the ban (because I hate seeing 'no reason provided' in my ban list.

[white maple]

It’s something like , { reason: String} but I need to check fo s

Docs*

Yes it’s that i think

[spare perch]

So interaction.guild.bans.create(userid){reason: banreason}?

[white maple]

No,
.create(userid, {reason: reason})

All right, final question (I hope).

How do I get the username from the ID number?

I tried interaction.guild.members.cache.get(userid) but that returns 'undefined.'

[thick forum]

The member won't always be in the cache try fetching it instead

if you just need the username I'd be easiest to just fetch the "user" not the "member"

[meager patrol]

User#fetch()
Fetches this user.

[thick forum]

nvm this one i picked the wrong one you want this one instead

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/discord.js/stable/class/UserManager?scrollTo=fetch

[spare perch]

const interactionUser = await interaction.guild.members.fetch(userid)
        let userName = interactionUser.username```

Still returning 'undefined.'

Never mind, I got it working.

Just had to replace interactionUser.username with interactionUser.user.username.
