  • My issue is whenever I have done all of my intents and my "client.login('TOKEN')" I do "npm i -g nodemon" that installs and the to save it I do "nodemon" in the terminal and there is an error as this is what a youtube video instructed me to do.

In all reality I am just trying to get my bot online. I am a beginner and then I will try to figure out how to do that later on.

this is a summary of what you need to do

#

How do I run "Powershell" as Admin?

#

@honest fjord

honest fjord
#

open windows menu (win key), type "powershell", on the right side click open as admin and it'll open

#

it may ask for a confirmation or something

dim onyx
#

Okay, thanks for the information.

dim onyx
honest fjord
#

type Y

dim onyx
honest fjord
#

try using nodemon now

dim onyx
#

So now if I do nodemon in the terminal it should work correct?

honest fjord
#

if it still doesn't work, try restarting vscode just in case

dim onyx
#

Different are this time.

honest fjord
#

yeah it's searching for an "ndex.js"

#

it should be index.js

#

it's a typo

honest fjord
#

reset it in case you haven't already

dim onyx
dim onyx
honest fjord
#

what command are you running exactly?

#

just nodemon ?

dim onyx
#

Correct.

honest fjord
#

I'm not sure how nodemon works exactly, maybe it's grabbing an script from your package.json

#

can you share that?

#

via a bin

main moatBOT
#

To share long code snippets, use a service like gist, sourcebin, pastebin, or similar instead of posting them as large code blocks or files.

dim onyx
#

guys im dumb

dim onyx
honest fjord
#

oh, lol

#

yeah that stuff happens

dim onyx
honest fjord
#

you mean how to reply with an embed?

dim onyx
honest fjord
#

it's the same as with a regular message

dim onyx
#

Ex: I use /promote

then it replies with an embed that has the user reason old rank new rank blah blah blah but in an embed

#

but how would I make it a embed?

main moatBOT
dim onyx
#

So yes that is how you do a embed but how would I put that into a slash command ?

#

@honest fjord

honest fjord
#

do you know how to do a basic slash command?

dim onyx
#

😭

honest fjord
#

okay np, you just have to take a step back

dim onyx
honest fjord
#

you should follow the guide from the start

main moatBOT
dim onyx
#

😭

honest fjord
#

you haven't imported it

dim onyx
honest fjord
#

import it from discord.js

dim onyx
honest fjord
#

can you show your whole code?

dim onyx
#

i didnt show my token that is it

#

@honest fjord

honest fjord
#

um you aren't meant to have those code snippets in the same file

dim onyx
#

do i make a file in src folder or by its self?

honest fjord
#

follow the guide from the scratch and read it, don't just copy and paste it since you won't understand most stuff

#

djs is just an api, not a framework so it doesn't do much by itself, you define your entire structure however you'd like

#

but the guide gives you an understandable and easy to modify start

dim onyx
#

this doesn't say make a file

#

oh wait

#

i have to make a folder named commands

#

and then subfolder

honest fjord
#

you should be in your "creating your bot" section, since that's the setup guide

#

the rest of the guide is more like worded documentation

honest fjord
#

or you could name it "koxels-commands" and load it, whatever you want

#

the point I'm trying to make is that djs won't load anything by itself, you have to code that

dim onyx
honest fjord
#

the guide tells you how you can do it

dim onyx
honest fjord
#

not necessarily the only way, but it's a start

dim onyx
#

im confused

honest fjord
#

about what?

#

have you followed the rest of the guide that's before that?

dim onyx
honest fjord
#

okay, then you should be fine at that point

dim onyx
#

this?

#

what file

#

i have the trwo folders but do i make a file for the command?

honest fjord
#

don't try to blindly copy and paste code, at least try to read what it says

#

it's not telling you to copy it

dim onyx
honest fjord
#

it's just telling you how it'd look like

#

below that it tells explains what the setup will be, and what you can actually copy

dim onyx
honest fjord
#

because you need to deploy them, discord can't magically know what commands you're listening to

dim onyx
honest fjord
#

the next part of the guide covers handling

#

and then deploying

dim onyx
#

ok

honest fjord
#

registering and deploying mean the same thing in this context and are used as synonyms

#

don't skip the handling part though

dim onyx
#

that look right

#

@honest fjord

honest fjord
#

if it's like the guide then yeah

#

I don't remember how it was exactly

dim onyx
honest fjord
#

about?

dim onyx
#

i got rid of the commands stuff i will do it tomorrw

#

i give up on that for now

#

but i got this

honest fjord
#

you have two client variables

dim onyx
#

i got it now

#

thanks for the help! can you keep this open?

#

@honest fjord

honest fjord
#

I'm not staff but I'm pretty sure it stays open

dim onyx
dim onyx
#

@honest fjord online?

#

anyone online?

#

need assistance with an error

#

while making slash commands in the command handling section

#

@rough dove

fading terrace
#

#rules 5, not the first time you did this either

dim onyx
dim onyx
#

Anyways can someone assist whenever?

dim onyx
#

need help with this error

heady scroll
#

missing a semicolon

#

and you forgot to set a token

#

in the rest constructor

dim onyx
dim onyx
#

?

heady scroll
#

new REST(…).setToken(…);

dim onyx
heady scroll
#

no

#

why did you remove the method?

dim onyx
heady scroll
#

and move the version to the token? do you know javascript or what you’re doing?

dim onyx
heady scroll
#

please refer to #rules 3 as that is required in our server

dim onyx
#

I am using node.js and discord.js'

heady scroll
#

yes you are…?

dim onyx
#

that is it

heady scroll
#

node.js and discord.js use Javascript

dim onyx
heady scroll
#

#resources

dim onyx
heady scroll
#

no, because i can’t help if you don’t know javascript at all

dim onyx
#

Just not about that for some reason.

heady scroll
#

okay, what’s a method

#

what’s an array

#

what’s an object

#

if you can’t answer those, i cannot help you

dim onyx
#

*various

heady scroll
#

you googled that.

#

that’s exactly what google says

dim onyx
# heady scroll what’s an object

Okay, look I truly understand your rules. I have never done this in my life and am trying the best I can do to create a bot. I don't know anything, I just want help.

heady scroll
#

i can’t help you if you don’t know javascript

dim onyx
#

is

dim onyx
heady scroll
#

because how else will you understand anything i tell you if you have no understanding of javascript

#

you’ll have a hard time with basic stuff if you’re not able to understand what i tell you

dim onyx
#

explaining

heady scroll
#

i can’t help you anymore, please learn javascript

dim onyx
heady scroll
#

my time has been wasted already and no i’m not your bro

dim onyx
dim onyx
heady scroll
#

good luck

dim onyx
heady scroll
#

i’m not rude, i’m being factual

#

please stop

dim onyx
#

I am just trying to fix one error that I don't need "Javascript" for and some staff member can't help me that is "rude". What do I need to stop

#

?
