Handling deletion of all guild specific slash commands with BulkOverwrite

I've been using BulkOverwrite to manage slash commands for guilds and use the

ApplicationCommandRegistryRegisterOptions

ApplicationCommandRegistryRegisterOptions

to specify an array of

guildIds

guildIds

to create guild specific commands with

registerChatInputCommand

registerChatInputCommand

. This works great as long as I have at least one guild specific command for a guild.

The issue is when II remove a guild id from all the command

ApplicationCommandRegistryRegisterOptions

ApplicationCommandRegistryRegisterOptions

then it won't overwrite anything in that guild and so it doesn't delete the removed commands.

Below I've included an example of two commands. Assume that previously both commands were registered for guilds ['111','222','333'] specifically. If I make an update to remove guild '222' from the Help Command and guild '333' from both the Ping and Help Command, then guild '222' will properly delete the Help Command, however guild '333' will not be updated and keep both the Help and Ping Command.

What is the recommended approach to remove guild specific commands from '333' after an update like this? and can it be done using Sapphire and BulkOverwrite somehow?

export class PingCommand extends Command {
    public override async registerApplicationCommands(
      registry: Command.Registry
    ) {

        const pingSpecificGuildIds = ['111', '222']; // removed '333'
      // an empty guild array will make it global
      if (pingSpecificGuildIds.length > 0) {
        registry.registerChatInputCommand(
          pingCommand,
          { guildIds: pingSpecificGuildIds }
        );
      }
    }
}

export class HelpCommand extends Command {
    public override async registerApplicationCommands(
        registry: Command.Registry
    ) {
        const helpSpecificGuildIds = ['111']; // removed '222' and '333'
        // an empty guild array will make it global
        if (helpSpecificGuildIds.length > 0) {
            registry.registerChatInputCommand(
            helpCommand,
            { guildIds: helpSpecificGuildIds }
            );
    }
}

export class PingCommand extends Command {
    public override async registerApplicationCommands(
      registry: Command.Registry
    ) {

        const pingSpecificGuildIds = ['111', '222']; // removed '333'
      // an empty guild array will make it global
      if (pingSpecificGuildIds.length > 0) {
        registry.registerChatInputCommand(
          pingCommand,
          { guildIds: pingSpecificGuildIds }
        );
      }
    }
}

export class HelpCommand extends Command {
    public override async registerApplicationCommands(
        registry: Command.Registry
    ) {
        const helpSpecificGuildIds = ['111']; // removed '222' and '333'
        // an empty guild array will make it global
        if (helpSpecificGuildIds.length > 0) {
            registry.registerChatInputCommand(
            helpCommand,
            { guildIds: helpSpecificGuildIds }
            );
    }
}

Solution

Sapphire doesnt handle deletion of commands, not with bulk nor anything else. You'll have to use the DiscordJS methodologies for that.

Alternatively you can use https://slash-commands-gui.androz2091.fr/settings
