`!n_n:mcve`:

MCVE
an example that is:

minimal - any code not related to your issue is removed
(alternately, write a new snippet that demonstrates the same error)
complete - all the information relevant to your issue is in the question, or the code
(a playground link that's properly erroring is enough)
verifiable - the example still demonstrates your issue

bruh

narrow ivy Jan 20, 2023, 4:22 PM

you can just merge to the Base interface

declare module 'discord.js' {
  interface Base {
    client: <your Client class name>
  }
}

narrow ivy im not seeing an `if` for your `else`

where ?

narrow ivy Jan 20, 2023, 4:23 PM

#

you have an else but no if before it

#

covert vault Jan 20, 2023, 4:23 PM

#

#

that's the code

narrow ivy Jan 20, 2023, 4:23 PM

#

it isn't though

covert vault Jan 20, 2023, 4:24 PM

#

what ?

narrow ivy Jan 20, 2023, 4:24 PM

#

oh bruh i see, code folding lmao; it's really not obvious in the screenshot (don't use screenshots)

#

this is why you don't randomly extend classes...

covert vault Jan 20, 2023, 4:24 PM

#

that's why i sent the code

#

bro

narrow ivy Jan 20, 2023, 4:25 PM

and you expect me to read through 70 lines of code?

no

no. you're the asker. you have an obligation to provide a helpable question.

i have no idea what that says, sorry

just the ts(2687) error

it's not folding

covert vault Jan 20, 2023, 4:28 PM

#

narrow ivy ...yeah i give up if you can't be bothered to let us help

i'm litteraly doing what you're trying to told me

narrow ivy Jan 20, 2023, 4:28 PM

#

is that why it's so horribly misaligned

#

covert vault Jan 20, 2023, 4:29 PM

#

??

#

i'm giving you the error

#

i wasn't able to find doc for that error in my context

#

so i would appreciate if you can help me with it

zealous fable Jan 20, 2023, 4:30 PM

@narrow ivy btw

that is not the error

zealous fable Jan 20, 2023, 4:30 PM

#

(with original discord.js types)

#

so it is not a problem with extending the classes

narrow ivy Jan 20, 2023, 4:31 PM

#

yeah would've been a lot more obvious with the actual types

covert vault Jan 20, 2023, 4:31 PM

didn't i gave you the classes ?

zealous fable Jan 20, 2023, 4:31 PM

uh typo

zealous fable Jan 20, 2023, 4:31 PM

narrow ivy yeah would've been a lot more obvious with the actual types

nope

it's the exact same error

sooooo

narrow ivy Jan 20, 2023, 4:31 PM

yeah that's fair

zealous fable Jan 20, 2023, 4:32 PM

it's very clear why the never is happening

#

it's narrowing

#

it's always narrowing

#

*a bit of an overstatement

narrow ivy Jan 20, 2023, 4:32 PM

lmao nice save

zealous fable Jan 20, 2023, 4:32 PM

but imo it's not too hard to find the narrowing - assuming that it is the cause

zealous fable Jan 20, 2023, 4:33 PM

#

here's the solution

narrow ivy Jan 20, 2023, 4:33 PM

#

isChatInputCommand is the proper typeguard if you want just the CommandInteraction (really ChatInputCommandInteraction)

covert vault Jan 20, 2023, 4:33 PM

#

@zealous fable idk what all you're saying mean but i know both of u and @narrow ivy can help me. can u give me details for me to understand ?

zealous fable Jan 20, 2023, 4:33 PM

#

narrow ivy `isChatInputCommand` is the proper typeguard if you want just the `CommandIntera...

ok tbh this is probably better, yeah

covert vault Jan 20, 2023, 4:34 PM

#

zealous fable here's the solution

where ?

zealous fable Jan 20, 2023, 4:34 PM

#

so the issue is that both ChatInputCommandInteraction and MessageContextMenuCommandInteraction are CommandInteraction

#

and isCommand catches the MessageContextMenuCommandInteraction

#

so it never reaches the i.isAutocomplete()

#

hence the never

covert vault Jan 20, 2023, 4:35 PM

#

uu so what to do ?

zealous fable Jan 20, 2023, 4:35 PM

#

narrow ivy `isChatInputCommand` is the proper typeguard if you want just the `CommandIntera...

@covert vault

#

instead of isCommand

covert vault Jan 20, 2023, 4:35 PM

#

ok

#

and can you explain why that_guy told me to use this snippet ?

narrow ivy Jan 20, 2023, 4:36 PM

#

so you can tell ts that you're using your own client rather than djs's

#

so you can access stuff on PayBot from guild.client, message.client, interaction.client, whatever

#

you don't need to make separate classes

covert vault Jan 20, 2023, 4:37 PM

#

but using guild or smth else will result in some long and long lines of code to do something simple

narrow ivy Jan 20, 2023, 4:37 PM

#

????

#

no this works everywhere

#

if you have a guild and you want your client, you can use guild.client

#

for example, in guildCreate, guildDelete, guildUpdate

#

or if you have a guildmember, you can do it too, like in guildMemberAdd

covert vault Jan 20, 2023, 4:38 PM

#

look, this one is very long for simple task, not very readable

#

just for retrieveing a user from db

narrow ivy Jan 20, 2023, 4:38 PM

#

that's readable

covert vault Jan 20, 2023, 4:38 PM

#

not for me

narrow ivy Jan 20, 2023, 4:38 PM

#

skill issue

covert vault Jan 20, 2023, 4:38 PM

#

thx

#

very constructive

narrow ivy Jan 20, 2023, 4:38 PM

#

it'll be worse if you don't have the extension

covert vault Jan 20, 2023, 4:38 PM

#

what extension ?

narrow ivy Jan 20, 2023, 4:38 PM

#

let me guess, you have interaction as one of your own classes here

covert vault Jan 20, 2023, 4:38 PM

#

i don't get it

#

no, interaction is native

narrow ivy Jan 20, 2023, 4:39 PM

#

doubt, Interaction#client.db doesn't exist

covert vault Jan 20, 2023, 4:39 PM

#

yep, i precise interaction#client is PayBot

narrow ivy Jan 20, 2023, 4:39 PM

#

exactly

#

so you have to do that for interactions, but also guilds and members and users and roles and channels separately if you want your PayBot

#

so now you have a bunch of classes that extend existing classes and just redeclare a single property

covert vault Jan 20, 2023, 4:40 PM

#

why do i need for guilds ? wtf

narrow ivy Jan 20, 2023, 4:41 PM

#

narrow ivy ```ts declare module 'discord.js' { interface Base { client: <your Client ...

this is how you avoid all that

covert vault Jan 20, 2023, 4:41 PM

#

but that don't work

narrow ivy Jan 20, 2023, 4:41 PM

#

so you can actually use the Interaction that djs gives

covert vault Jan 20, 2023, 4:41 PM

#

narrow ivy Jan 20, 2023, 4:41 PM

#

and you got an error and you didn't tell me what it was

covert vault Jan 20, 2023, 4:41 PM

#

bro

covert vault Jan 20, 2023, 4:41 PM

#

narrow ivy

u saw it

#

i gave it

narrow ivy Jan 20, 2023, 4:42 PM

#

im not psychic

covert vault Jan 20, 2023, 4:42 PM

#

bro

narrow ivy Jan 20, 2023, 4:42 PM

#

i can't read error codes like that, im not a robot 💀

covert vault Jan 20, 2023, 4:42 PM

#

u litteraly read that for screenshot and give me

narrow ivy Jan 20, 2023, 4:42 PM

#

yes, and i still don't know what the error is

covert vault Jan 20, 2023, 4:42 PM

#

ok

narrow ivy Jan 20, 2023, 4:42 PM

#

you have the error right there, and you clearly understand the message since you have that language set?

covert vault Jan 20, 2023, 4:42 PM

#

so don't tell me to add code if you don't know what's wrong with it

#

tf is wrong

narrow ivy Jan 20, 2023, 4:43 PM

#

the code is fine, it's used in plenty of places

#

the context isn't

covert vault Jan 20, 2023, 4:43 PM

#

..

narrow ivy Jan 20, 2023, 4:43 PM

#

there's something wrong around it

#

and i don't know what that is if you don't tell me what's wrong...

#

im not going to go through the massive ts error code json when you can just tell me what it is...

covert vault Jan 20, 2023, 4:44 PM

#

narrow ivy and i don't know what that is if you don't tell me what's wrong...

bro, if you're joking or smth like it isn't funny

narrow ivy Jan 20, 2023, 4:44 PM

#

im not

covert vault Jan 20, 2023, 4:44 PM

#

like i litteraly told 5 times what it is

narrow ivy Jan 20, 2023, 4:44 PM

#

you're literally just, refusing to say what the error message says?

covert vault Jan 20, 2023, 4:44 PM

ts(2687) error

narrow ivy Jan 20, 2023, 4:44 PM

#

i can't read french 💀

#

i can't read error codes either 💀

#

i've told you that already

covert vault Jan 20, 2023, 4:45 PM

#

all declarations of client must have identic modifiers

narrow ivy Jan 20, 2023, 4:45 PM

#

make it readonly or something, i don't remember

covert vault Jan 20, 2023, 4:45 PM

#

...

#

where ? maybe more precise

narrow ivy Jan 20, 2023, 4:46 PM

#

readonly client: PayBot

covert vault Jan 20, 2023, 4:46 PM

#

"The next property declarations must have the same type. The 'client' property must have the type 'Client<true>', but here it has the type 'PayBot'.ts(2717)"

narrow ivy Jan 20, 2023, 4:47 PM

#

have PayBot extend Client<true> instead of just Client

#

(which is Client<boolean> by default)

covert vault Jan 20, 2023, 4:47 PM

#

still get the error

#

#

narrow ivy Jan 20, 2023, 4:48 PM

#

bro why are your buttons so big 💀

#

unrelated, but jesus christ lmao

covert vault Jan 20, 2023, 4:48 PM

it's extension

narrow ivy Jan 20, 2023, 4:48 PM

#

anyways, that's probably lag if nothing changed

narrow ivy Jan 20, 2023, 4:48 PM

#

covert vault it's extension

yeah usually they aren't that big

covert vault Jan 20, 2023, 4:49 PM

#

narrow ivy anyways, that's probably lag if nothing changed

even after reload

#

don't work

#

same error

narrow ivy Jan 20, 2023, 4:49 PM

#

is your PayBot overriding any properties or methods of Client

covert vault Jan 20, 2023, 4:50 PM

#

no, just adding

#

and use super(options) to keep options from Client class

narrow ivy Jan 20, 2023, 4:56 PM

seems to work for some people i've helped thonk
