Not a Problem but more a best-practice question

I was wondering how you guys declare your slash commands.
First i was clearing all SlashCommands for my Application everytime i start the bot, and declare every Command once more. I thought that might be the best practice. In this way i made sure the api matched my implementation of that command.

**But everything changed when the api attacked **

Yeah i noticed theres a limit of 200 declarations a day.
So i stopped doing this and implemented a "slash command declaration" mode. Only if active it will purge all old definitions and update them.

I probably could fetch the definition for each command and check if they have changed and update them if so. But i was wondern whats the best practice?

We basically recommend just having a separate deployment script

And yeah, run that file whenever you need to make changes

well yes i saw that aswell but im not happy with that

since its not looking right

right now i do it like this

        let command = new SlashCommandBuilder()
        .setDescription('Do stuff')
         // set everything you want here
        CommandService.getInstance().createSlashCommand('commandName`, command, this.handleHandoutCommand.bind(this))

cant really provide much help outside of our guides if you want to do it your own way

But you're generally on the right track, the best practice is to find a way to only update when you actually need to
