You could manually create a dictionary which converts PermissionsBitField.Flags.xxx to a string

storm edge Jan 30, 2023, 5:05 AM

#

discord js does not have a converter ?

dreamy kestrel Jan 30, 2023, 5:05 AM

#

Like:

const permissionsString {
  PermissionsBitField.Flags.xxx: 'xxx',
  PermissionsBitField.Flags.xxx: 'xxx',
  ...
}

I don't think so

storm edge Jan 30, 2023, 5:05 AM

#

bruhh

dreamy kestrel Jan 30, 2023, 5:06 AM

#

cause there's not really much of a use for it

#

what are you trying to do with the string?

#

cause I'm not sure there is any use case for this...

#

so i put the required permission bitfild in my command when user execute and user dont have it i need to to tell them they need that bitfild permission

#

you could do new PermissionsBitField(PermissionFlagBits.ManageGuild).toArray() which will return 'ManageGuild' as the string permission

storm edge Jan 30, 2023, 5:08 AM

#

vestal vector you could do `new PermissionsBitField(PermissionFlagBits.ManageGuild).toArray()`...

thx

ye thx

#

since PermissionFlagsBits.ManageGuild returns 32n, toArray() returns the actual name of the bit

dreamy kestrel Jan 30, 2023, 5:10 AM

#

vestal vector

You'd have to do var[0] since it's an array

vestal vector Jan 30, 2023, 5:10 AM

#

uh no, not in this case

dreamy kestrel Jan 30, 2023, 5:10 AM

#

what

vestal vector Jan 30, 2023, 5:10 AM

#

its only one permission

#

so there's no point

dreamy kestrel Jan 30, 2023, 5:10 AM

#

huh

#

you don't have to do [0]?

vestal vector Jan 30, 2023, 5:11 AM

#

i mean you could if you wanted the array brackets removed

#

still returns the permission name regardless

dreamy kestrel Jan 30, 2023, 5:12 AM

#

but I'm pretty sure if you tried to modify it(like concat it) then it wouldn't work(i think)

vestal vector Jan 30, 2023, 5:12 AM

#

they just want to view the name

#

or could even call .toString() on the .toArray()

cool ig
