Erikost3 - TypeError rest.setToken is not a function

[stone robin]

@uneven bison let us Continue with your problem here

just re post that her :) https://srcb.in/WIqxCgX49C

[uneven bison]

Okay

[stone robin]

let me take a look :)

[uneven bison]

I'm pretty new to js so yeah that's why this problem is probably nothing big lmao

[stone robin]

but ya imported @discordjs/rest right?

npm i @discordjs/rest

[uneven bison]

No, my friend told me I already had it.

But I can do it.

[stone robin]

whats written in your package.json ?

[uneven bison]

yeah

    "dotenv": "^16.0.0",
    "mariadb": "^2.5.5"
  }
}

[stone robin]

okay, yea its imported

[uneven bison]

yeah

im really confused

the tutorial ran this completly fine

[stone robin]

me to, like I do

import { REST } from '@discordjs/rest';

and then I do

const rest = new REST({ version: '9' }).setToken(process.env.BOT_TOKEN);

that is ES6 Syntax, so Converted to Commonjs what you're using its

const { REST } = require('@discordjs/rest')

const rest = new REST({version: '9'}).setToken(process.env.BOT_TOKEN);

[uneven bison]

yeah

is there any way I can log the "rest" object to see what it contains?

[stone robin]

console.log(REST)

but that's properly something like [class de extends EventEmitter]

[uneven bison]

yes

[stone robin]

but you could instead do the console.log() of your rest constant like console.log(rest) directly after creating it

that should look simmalar to this

[uneven bison]

it does

im trying to look for setToken

[stone robin]

yea

[uneven bison]

it has none

breh

yours have no either

[stone robin]

yea, functions are nor listed there

[uneven bison]

now this is confusing

[stone robin]

https://discord.js.org/#/docs/rest/stable/general/welcome also the doc is down

[uneven bison]

hmmm

so is discord js down?

[stone robin]

no

[uneven bison]

oh

[stone robin]

just that part of the documentation

[uneven bison]

nice

[stone robin]

what do you get if ya console.log(rest.setToken);

i get [Function: setToken]

[uneven bison]

most likely null

[stone robin]

and?

[uneven bison]

wtf message [Function: setToken]

[stone robin]

so the funcction exists

[uneven bison]

it says it's not a function tho

TypeError: rest.setToken(...) is not a function

[stone robin]

oh, the ... s

[uneven bison]

huh?

[stone robin]

do you have a .env file? DONT SHARE THE TOKEN

[uneven bison]

yes

[stone robin]

and your token variable is exacctly called TOKEN=xyz?

[uneven bison]

I did TOKEN=token

yes

[stone robin]

TOKE? not TOKEN?

[uneven bison]

no lol

i would love if that was the issue

[stone robin]

okay :)

[uneven bison]

I even tried printing the token

that worked

[stone robin]

if you cconsole log console.log(process.env.TOKEN) do you get your token in the cconsole

ahh okay :)

[uneven bison]

yep

[stone robin]

hmm

[uneven bison]

I actually used the wrong token before.

lmao

[stone robin]

okay?

[uneven bison]

I feel like there is something im missing on this line rest.setToken(process.env.TOKEN)

[stone robin]

no ther isnt really

#djs-help-v14 message you got exactly the same problem

[uneven bison]

hold up imma ask my other friend

[stone robin]

okay :)

[uneven bison]

he doesn't answer :(

so um

[stone robin]

https://www.npmjs.com/package/@discordjs/rest lul discordjs is using a deprecated package xD

[uneven bison]

huh

oh

[stone robin]

so this will not be the way much longer like its looking, but still it should work for you

[uneven bison]

oh

ohno

[stone robin]

still looks weird

[uneven bison]

so the tutorial im using is shit dam

[stone robin]

no

they litteraly use it in the official tutorial

[uneven bison]

hmm

um

[stone robin]

thats the official Tutorial https://discordjs.guide/interactions/registering-slash-commands.html#registering-slash-commands****

[uneven bison]

oh yeah

uhm but this works for u and not for me, then it means my package is wrong???

[stone robin]

would make sense

}

[uneven bison]

yeah same version omg

[stone robin]

yea I don't havy anymore ideas and I dont see anything that could be the problem, bu properly Im just blind, just asked in #djs-help-v14 if somone else could look onto it, sry)

[uneven bison]

thank you for trying tho 👌

[stone robin]

np :)

dont forget to ask for help in this thread now and then in #djs-help-v14 , so it doesnt get forgotten :)

[fiery lily]

what variable did you put to the .env?

[uneven bison]

TOKEN=

[rustic meadow]

@uneven bison add a ; after setToken

[stone robin]

his sourcecode 📌

[rustic meadow]

setToken(...);

[fiery lily]

means, process.env.TOKEN

not process.env.BOT_TOKEN

[uneven bison]

I have TOKEN

[stone robin]

yea he jsut set it to TOKEN

[stone robin]

shouldnt make a diffrence though

[fiery lily]

don't put rest

[uneven bison]

I will try the semi colon.

[rustic meadow]

no it's exactly the issue

[fiery lily]

rest doesn't have function on .setToken

[stone robin]

okay?

[fiery lily]

rest.setToken is not exist,

[rustic meadow]

setToken(..)

(async function (){})
```this is being treated as```js
setToken(..)(async function (){})
``` basically calling setToken's result `setToken()()`

[fiery lily]

only rest constructor,

[rustic meadow]

adding a ; fixes it

[stone robin]

ohh, true

that one case where you need to use ; in js

[uneven bison]

it worked now I'm getting permission denied

[stone robin]

thern you bot doesnt have the right scope

[rustic meadow]

show the actual error, don't assume what it says

[uneven bison]

S[0]: 405: Method Not Allowed

[rustic meadow]

you need to be careful using iifes and array literals

[stone robin]

yea

[fiery lily]

oop i have an replacement, bye now :)

[rustic meadow]

even js something ['a', 'b'] accesses something['b']

                    Routes.applicationGuildCommand(CLIENT_ID, process.env.GUILD_ID),
``` @uneven bison applicationGuildCommand`s`

[uneven bison]

Thanks

[stone robin]

👍

[uneven bison]

The s makes the difference lmao.

[stone robin]

yea, and it makes sense *me: blind -> Ben: 👀 *

[uneven bison]

S[50001]: Missing Access

[rustic meadow]

add the scopes #769862166131245066

[uneven bison]

Intents?

[rustic meadow]

no, scopes, <#769862166131245066 message>
also i recommend you follow the https://discordjs.guide/interactions/registering-slash-commands.html#guild-commands's approach, use a separate script instead of using it alongside your bot

[uneven bison]

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh

its in there wow

[rustic meadow]

you don't need to kick the bot, just reuse that link

[uneven bison]

NICE it works

Thanks guys.
