To help you we need more information:

  • What are you trying to do?
  • What is your code?
  • What errors and debug logs do you have?

im trying to code a discord bot.
java script
my error is node .
when i put the node . in the terminal of visual studio code it does absoulty nothing

dawn lion

and try node <yourfilename>.js

jolly bridge
dawn lion

jolly bridge
dawn lion

yes

jolly bridge
dawn lion

well make sure you're in the right directory

carmine nacelle

and make sure you actually typed the file name correctly

jolly bridge

the file name is Gentlemen Bot

carmine nacelle

then you typed the filename incorrectly

jolly bridge

i put GentlemenBot.js

carmine nacelle

you didn't

jolly bridge
carmine nacelle

you're missing the actual command node now...

jolly bridge

i swear i downloaded it correcrtly and its in my varibles

dawn lion

...

carmine nacelle

...

dawn lion

you just forgot to put node

just do like you did before but with the right filename

jolly bridge

so node.GentlemenBot.js ???

or nodeGentlemenBot.js

dawn lion

are you even trying at this point

you literally did it before

node <yourfile>.js

jolly bridge

i did

i literally did

dawn lion

and did it work

jolly bridge

no

dawn lion

and what error did you get

jolly bridge
dawn lion

are you even reading waht i say

there needs to be a space, node filename.js

jolly bridge

module not found

dawn lion

show your file structure

jolly bridge
dawn lion

you need to run index.js

and you just leaked your token. reset it

jolly bridge

alright

i reset it

rn

so i need to run the index correct?

dawn lion

yes

jolly bridge

in the terminal

dawn lion

yes

jolly bridge

i did that and a error pops up

dawn lion

which error

jolly bridge

it says index.js is not recognized

dawn lion

did you prefix it with node? We've literally just been over this

jolly bridge

yes and it says absolutly nothing

just goes to the next line

dawn lion

and do you have anything in your code that would log something

jolly bridge

not atm would you want to see the full code?

dawn lion

well then of course you wont get any output

jolly bridge
dawn lion

that activity setter is wrong thats one thing

and does the bot show up as online

jolly bridge

thats what this code is for to make it online

dawn lion

also access the client from the param that is passed in the ready event

jolly bridge

so no not yet

wdym?

dawn lion

ready passes in a client parameter, use that to set the activity

and can you run npm ls discord.js

jolly bridge

and what is wrong about the activity setter?

dawn lion

and what did it output

vapid sparrowBOT
jolly bridge

and now what?

dawn lion

Yeah

I highly doubt your code is saved at all

jolly bridge

how?

dawn lion

Its require, not Require, which would throw an error

jolly bridge

ok
