What makes me think that the client is not receiving the events is the fact that Raw and Debug never fire when clicking the button. They just sit quite until a heartbeat occurrs.

#

You could really replace response with interaction per the code in the documentation. I just used that generically across all of the events to see what was actually firing when I clicked the button.

rain pawn Apr 8, 2023, 2:59 AM

#

you shouldn't be listening to Raw in the first place, a button interaction should always fire an InteractionCreate event unless you are missing the Guilds intent

nocturne sequoia Apr 8, 2023, 2:59 AM

#

It should, but it isn't is the issue.

#

Client setup:

#

and your interactionCreate event handler how is it

nocturne sequoia Apr 8, 2023, 3:00 AM

#

I was only listening to raw to see if something was happening around the interaction. But it dead silent when clicking the button.

#

okay but show me your interactionCreate handler

nocturne sequoia Apr 8, 2023, 3:01 AM

#

client.on(
  Events.InteractionCreate,
  response => console.debug(
    "InteractionCreate",
    response
  )
);

#

Split for readability there.

#

I just want to know it's being called.

#

Log something… anything.

#

But it logs nothing. I can send message and log that I saw them without issue.

#

you sure you imported Events correctly? which version of the library are you using?

nocturne sequoia Apr 8, 2023, 3:03 AM

#

import { ActionRowBuilder, ButtonBuilder, ButtonStyle, Client, Events, GatewayIntentBits } from "discord.js";

#

Version 14.9.0

#

If Events was imported incorrectly, I would fully expect the MessageCreate handler to not work, but it does.

rain pawn Apr 8, 2023, 3:04 AM

#

Okay hmmmmm

nocturne sequoia Apr 8, 2023, 3:04 AM

#

Yeah…

#

It's so weird.

rain pawn Apr 8, 2023, 3:04 AM

#

can you just send the full script hiding your token

nocturne sequoia Apr 8, 2023, 3:05 AM

#

"use strict";

// Third Party
import "dotenv/config";
import { ActionRowBuilder, ButtonBuilder, ButtonStyle, Client, Events, GatewayIntentBits } from "discord.js";

// Project
import { AppConfig } from "./config.js";

const config = new AppConfig(process.env);
const client = new Client({
  intents: [
    GatewayIntentBits.DirectMessages,
    GatewayIntentBits.DirectMessageReactions,
    GatewayIntentBits.Guilds,
    GatewayIntentBits.GuildMessages,
    GatewayIntentBits.GuildMessageReactions,
    GatewayIntentBits.MessageContent
  ]
});

client.login(config.discordToken);
client.once(Events.ClientReady, instance => console.debug(`Client ready`));

client.on(Events.Error, response => console.debug("Error"));
client.on(Events.Warn, response => console.debug("Warn"));
client.on(Events.Debug, response => console.debug("Debug"));
client.on(Events.Raw, response => console.debug("Raw"));
client.on(Events.InteractionCreate, response => console.debug("InteractionCreate", response));
client.on(Events.MessageCreate, message => {
  if (message.content === "Button?") {
    console.debug("MessageCreate", "message received for Button?");

    return message.reply({
      components: [
        new ActionRowBuilder()
          .addComponents(
            new ButtonBuilder()
              .setCustomId("select-test")
              .setLabel("Test Button")
              .setStyle(ButtonStyle.Primary)
          )
      ],
      content: "Test button creation."
    });
  } else {
    console.debug("MessageCreate", "message other than 'Button?' seen");
  }
});

#

AppConfig is just a wrapper for the process.env parsing.

rain pawn Apr 8, 2023, 3:07 AM

#

hmm

nocturne sequoia Apr 8, 2023, 3:07 AM

#

Yeah… It seems like it should work.

#

That's why I wonder if something was missing from the setup/config with the Discord Server, but it has Admin permissions and was registered using their suggested URL.

rain pawn Apr 8, 2023, 3:08 AM

#

can you instead of using console.debug just do response.reply("something")

#

save and restart

nocturne sequoia Apr 8, 2023, 3:09 AM

#

Did that in many ways suggested by documentation, but will do so again. = )

#

thonk

nocturne sequoia Apr 8, 2023, 3:11 AM

rain pawn Apr 8, 2023, 3:11 AM

#

this is weird af, I have no idea what is happening

nocturne sequoia Apr 8, 2023, 3:11 AM

#

Yeah!

#

Mind. Boggling.

#

Literally cannot even with this. o_O

#

#

Everything suggests it should work. But nothing…

#

Just zero events.

#

I tried the raw string in place. Nope.

#

I tried logging all events listed on the Events enum, nope.

#

Are there some magic bits in the Application/Bot registration within Discord itself I need to set before inviting it? 🤔

#

Like this stuff:

rain pawn Apr 8, 2023, 3:14 AM

#

the only one I know is the application.commands scope but that one is supposed to just let your bot update and create slash commands on the guild, i dont think that one should affect buttons and other interactions

tranquil bone Apr 8, 2023, 3:15 AM

#

nocturne sequoia I tried the raw string in place. Nope.

const { getEventListeners } = require("node:events");

const listeners = getEventListeners(client, "interactionCreate");

log listeners. Put this code in ur message event

nocturne sequoia Apr 8, 2023, 3:15 AM

nocturne sequoia Apr 8, 2023, 3:16 AM

tranquil bone const { getEventListeners } = require("node:events"); const listeners = getEven...

The MessageCreate event?

#

Added:

client.on(Events.MessageCreate, message => {
  console.debug(events.getEventListeners(client, "interactionCreate"));
  console.debug(events.getEventListeners(client, Events.InteractionCreate)
    .map(f => f.toString())
  );

#

#

Sent an asdf message to the channel for the message event to fire.

tranquil bone Apr 8, 2023, 3:21 AM

#

That means the event is created, just not getting fired, now this issue is absolutely unsolvable

nocturne sequoia Apr 8, 2023, 3:21 AM

#

😩

#

Time to go classic IRC bot style I guess… 😒

Try creating a collector on the message and see ìf it get the interaction

It looks like it just auto-collects the message but not the intereaction.
