[kind hemlock]

i’m on latest node & DJS

[thin light]

BaseChannel#createdTimestamp
The timestamp the channel was created at

[kind hemlock]

i know how to take the last timestamp

[slim needle]

when specifying your versions, please use exact versions. Thanks

[kind hemlock]

but i don’t know how to check if the last message is 3 days

i want to do :

3 days inactivity auto close but how i can check if the last message is sended after 3 days for close the channel?

[thin light]

TextBasedChannel#lastMessageId
The channel's last message id, if one was sent

[slim needle]

get timestamp from this, then compare it to current date

[kind hemlock]

i have try but i don’t know how to compare it

[slim needle]

SnowflakeUtil.timestampFrom(id)
just compare that

[hushed river]

They are numbers, what part of comparing numbers is confusing?

[kind hemlock]

before when i have try it i try to create a var with the current date const x = new Date.now() and after

Time message - x

[hushed river]

That will always be a negative number then

[kind hemlock]

so i do SnowflakeUtil.timestampFrom(message timestamp) that's right ?

and it's say the timestamp passed

[oblique peak]

message id not timestamp

[kind hemlock]

euh yes sure

i want to do this verification all 5 minutes how i can check all channel ?

all channel contains "X" in the name

of my guild

[oblique peak]

<GuildChannelManager>.filter(ch => ch.name.includes('string'))

and setInterval()

[kind hemlock]

yes this i know

that's just for take all channel

thx i'm going try this ^^

[oblique peak]

but if you want to check the inactivity of the channel every x days wouldn’t be better to put this interval every x days

[kind hemlock]

yes but that(s a ticket system

and i search for 30 min inactivity channel state change

wait

I have category active channel

and inactive

i want to set inaxtive after 30m ,o message

the channel is set active when a message is sended

that's why 5 minutes

[kind hemlock]

mhhh i'm so bad ? x)

[ocean tundra]

@kind hemlock Highly recommend typescript

guild.channels is a https://discord.js.org/#/docs/discord.js/main/class/GuildChannelManager

[kind hemlock]

don't another method in js ?

[ocean tundra]

Parse error near "don't another method"

[kind hemlock]

i don't understand mdmr

[oblique peak]

.cache.filter

[kind hemlock]

yes i have find lmao i'm not djs dev v14

[kind hemlock]

const filter = guild.channels.cache.filter(ch => ch.name.includes('aide')) 

      filter.messages.fetch({ limit: 1 }).then(messages => {
        let lastMessage = messages.first();

        console.log(lastMessage.id)
        
        if (!lastMessage.author.bot) {
          return; 
        }
      }).catch(console.error);

    }, 1 * 60 * 1000) // 1 minute(s)

[oblique peak]

filter is a Collection of all channel that includes "aide" in their names

[kind hemlock]

a bruh

and how i can define all channel includes "aide" for set the last message sended ?

[oblique peak]

for (const channel of channels.values()) ... or <Collection>.forEach()

and try getting the last message from <TextChannel>.lastMessage

[kind hemlock]

setInterval( function() {

      const filter = guild.channels.cache.filter(ch => ch.name.includes('aide')) 
      const channel = filter.forEach();

      const lastMsg = channel.lastMessage();
      console.log(lastMsg.id);

    }, 1 * 60 * 1000) // 1 minute(s)

[hushed river]

Do you know how forEach works? If no: learn basic JS, #resources has some good links
If yes: use it correctly then

[kind hemlock]

i'm tired lmao sry

guild.channels.cache.filter(ch => ch.name.includes('aide')).forEach(chan => {
        console.log(chan);
      });

rn i do chan.lastMessage right ?

[kind hemlock]

mhhh

I have try with this

https://www.npmjs.com/package/discord.js-snowflake

[hushed river]

discord.js exports SnowflakeUtil itself. And that has the exact function. Where did you import it from?

[kind hemlock]

oh i have don't think this

thx

and now how i can check if

is inactive by x days ?

or x hours

[slim needle]

you... subtract that from Date.now()...

[kind hemlock]

but if i do this

[slim needle]

uh what

[kind hemlock]

that's say 53 years ago

[slim needle]

Assuming that this timestamp is in seconds

that's in ms

[kind hemlock]

mhhh

[kind hemlock]

Timestamp message : 1665251587294 | Current : 1665253548328 Substract : -1961034
Timestamp message : 1665181841894 | Current : 1665253548329 Substract : -71706435
Timestamp message : 1665253272448 | Current : 1665253548329 Substract : -275881
Timestamp message : 1665251947507 | Current : 1665253548330 Substract : -1600823

but with the result

how i can know that's 1 hour ago

[slim needle]

you... subtract

[kind hemlock]

i'm fucking noob in djs 14 and also with timestamp

[kind hemlock]

Substract : -1600823

that's the result

but i don't know i can know that's 1 hour ago for ex

[slim needle]

well, you could Date.now() - x
x is whatever the difference is

<t:1665252179>

is that when the message was sent

[kind hemlock]

how u do this in discord ?

[thin light]

Message formatting (mentions, timestamps, emoji, etc.): learn more

[kind hemlock]

i know in the code but no in text

thx

[kind hemlock]

so now i check if this is highter than 3,600,000 ms

highter or =

and i have my system

right ?

because 3,600,000 ms = 1 hour

[hushed river]

Yes

[kind hemlock]

Thanks that's working !

it's good for me
