Sapphire - Imagine a Framework•3y ago

bot won't get on and connect to discord.

hi, my bot won't turn on. i've coded a lot of bots before with sapphire and they worked just fine, decided to make a new project, coded the structure and everything good but when i run my "yarn watch:start" - "watch:start": "tsc-watch --onSuccess \"node ./dist/index.js\"" it just won't turn on.

this.login() cause i use .env which is inside the src folder

Favna•3y ago

you don't have any super.login() and having env in src is not a reason to have any of that. Look at some of the example bots: @Dragonite, @Gemboard for example in fact I see no reason at all to have a custom client there

Exact same code, but without completely unnecessary extended client Also it should be noted that you didn't add the Message Content intent... so yaknow... before you write message commands and you need to make another post saying they dont work.

Psyonix_OP•3y ago

@Favna what do you mean lol, i want to build a bot with custom stuff, that's why i extended SapphireClient

Favna•3y ago

you dont have custom stuff there and any custom properties you need can be defined outside of the client scope i.e. on the container scope

Psyonix_OP•3y ago

i've got ./lib/setup.ts file

Favna•3y ago

why would you subject yourself to container.client.customProperty instead of container.customProperty

Psyonix_OP•3y ago

well not yet my setup.ts file is this @Favna :

// Unless explicitly defined, set NODE_ENV as development:
process.env.NODE_ENV ??= 'development';

import 'reflect-metadata';
import '@sapphire/plugin-logger/register';
import '@sapphire/plugin-api/register';
import '@sapphire/plugin-editable-commands/register';
import { config } from 'dotenv-cra';
import * as colorette from 'colorette';
import { inspect } from 'util';
import { join } from 'path';
import { srcDir } from './constants';

config({ path: join(srcDir, '.env') });

// Set default inspection depth
inspect.defaultOptions.depth = 1;

// Enable colorette
colorette.createColors({ useColor: true });

// Unless explicitly defined, set NODE_ENV as development:
process.env.NODE_ENV ??= 'development';

import 'reflect-metadata';
import '@sapphire/plugin-logger/register';
import '@sapphire/plugin-api/register';
import '@sapphire/plugin-editable-commands/register';
import { config } from 'dotenv-cra';
import * as colorette from 'colorette';
import { inspect } from 'util';
import { join } from 'path';
import { srcDir } from './constants';

config({ path: join(srcDir, '.env') });

// Set default inspection depth
inspect.defaultOptions.depth = 1;

// Enable colorette
colorette.createColors({ useColor: true });

i prefer creating my own extended client, it's not about that

Favna•3y ago

well then you also fix your own issues :) :) :)

Psyonix_OP•3y ago

i've got this.login()

Favna•3y ago

last I checked this is not the same as super but maybe my dictionary is wrong

Psyonix_OP•3y ago

uh should i change this to super?

Favna•3y ago

sorry to be a bit of an asshole about it but if you want to ignore my recommendations then I don't see much reason to provide proper help either

Psyonix_OP•3y ago

no i am not ignoring yo again, it does log into discord bot seems like my ready.ts isn't loading nor any of my listeners don't know what i doing wrong tbh

do i still have to use eg:

registerApplicationCommands(registry: ApplicationCommandRegistry) {
    registry.registerChatInputCommand(
      {
        name: "ping",
        description: `Gets my ping to the Discord API and interaction round-trip.`,
      },
      {
        guildIds: ["955500329489797180"],
        idHints: ["968221223123316777"],
        behaviorWhenNotIdentical: RegisterBehavior.Overwrite,
      }
    );
  }
}

registerApplicationCommands(registry: ApplicationCommandRegistry) {
    registry.registerChatInputCommand(
      {
        name: "ping",
        description: `Gets my ping to the Discord API and interaction round-trip.`,
      },
      {
        guildIds: ["955500329489797180"],
        idHints: ["968221223123316777"],
        behaviorWhenNotIdentical: RegisterBehavior.Overwrite,
      }
    );
  }
}

@Favna ? and chatInputRun()? or there are any other methods?

Favna•3y ago

read our guide

Psyonix_OP•3y ago

okay this 1?

Favna•3y ago

we didnt write it for it to be ignored smh

Psyonix_OP•3y ago

yep i know

Favna•3y ago

How about you try to find it yourself for ac hange instead of asking to be spoonfed links

Psyonix_OP•3y ago

there are many guides, just asked if you could point out which one to read lol

Favna•3y ago

there aren't many guides. There is one guide. With pages that you can navigate by clicking on them with your mouse cursor. I assume you have a mouse cursor it was invented in 1967 after all
