Read Messages

[prime harness]

I want to read the messages that are sent but
bot.on('message', (message) => { console.log(message.content); });
doesn't work

what can I do?

Is there an event

[spice sluice]

The message and interaction events were renamed to messageCreate and interactionCreate respectively, to bring the library in line with Discord's naming conventions.

- client.on('message', message => { ... });
+ client.on('messageCreate', message => { ... });
- client.on('interaction', interaction => { ... });
+ client.on('interactionCreate', interaction => { ... });

And you need MessageContent and GuildMessages intents

[prime harness]

where are they located?

[steady violet]

In your client constructor

[prime harness]

yeah I know but are they just called MessageContent or like GatewayIntentBits.Guilds

[steady violet]

You can use an array of strings

[“Guilds”, “MessageContent”]

Or use the enums

[prime harness]

oh

[steady violet]

Like you do here

[prime harness]

so easy 😄

[steady violet]

GatewayIntentBits.MessageContent

[prime harness]

If I do it like this [GatewayIntentBits.MessageContent, GatewayIntentBits.Guilds, GatewayIntentBits.GuildMessages] it says: code: 'DisallowedIntents'

[prime harness]

with this as well

Tag suggestion for @prime harness:
Error [DisallowedIntents]: Privileged intent provided is not enabled or whitelisted.

If you are using the GuildMembers, GuildPresences, or MessageContent intents, you need to enable them in the developer portal:
• Developer Portal > Your app > Bot > Privileged Gateway Intents
