Access extended sapphire client

Following usecase: I extended the sapphire client in order to create custom collections etc. Is there any way I can access the extended client through the container?
Solution:
container.client, and you need to add module augmentation to add the properties to the Client class from discord.js ```ts declare module 'discord.js' { interface Client { myCustomProperty: any...

declare module 'discord.js' {
interface Client {
myCustomProperty: any

}
declare module 'discord.js' {

anyway why would you add them to the client specifically when you can also just add them to the container directly. Save yourself the trouble of doing container.client.custom and just do container.custom

By the way, you're more encouraged to extend container rather than SapphireClient 👀

It's also far easier because you can just:
import { container } from '@sapphire/framework';
import { CustomColelction } from 'whatever';

container.custom = new CustomCollection();

declare module '@sapphire/framework' {
export interface Container {
custom: CustomCollection;
}
}
import { container } from '@sapphire/framework';
import { CustomColelction } from 'whatever';

container.custom = new CustomCollection();

declare module '@sapphire/framework' {
export interface Container {
custom: CustomCollection;
}
}

for typescript to recognise it for me, i have to do it like this
declare module '@sapphire/pieces' {
interface Container {
config: KaydaConfig
db: PrismaClient;
}
}
declare module '@sapphire/pieces' {
interface Container {
config: KaydaConfig
db: PrismaClient;
}
}
seems to be done that way in iriss too so @Upsided i think you should maybe try that instead?
