conversion of ApplicationCommand to SlashCommandBuilder object

is there a way to convert ApplicationCommand to SlashCommandBuilder object? coz the object received from fetching the API and the locally created ones won't match when I directly compare them after serialization

• What's your exact discord.js npm list discord.js and node node -v version? • Post the full error stack trace, not just the top part! • Show your code! • Explain what exactly your issue is. • Not a discord.js issue? Check out #useful-servers.

For example converting this:

ApplicationCommand {
    id: '1112489448605761541',
    applicationId: '1096844434202697728',
    guild: null,
    guildId: null,
    permissions: ApplicationCommandPermissionsManager {
      manager: [Circular *1],
      guild: null,
      guildId: null,
      commandId: '1112489448605761541'
    },
    type: 1,
    nsfw: false,
    name: 'rename',
    nameLocalizations: null,
    nameLocalized: null,
    description: 'Mass renaming of channels',
    descriptionLocalizations: null,
    descriptionLocalized: null,
    options: [ [Object], [Object] ],
    defaultMemberPermissions: PermissionsBitField { bitfield: 16n },
    dmPermission: false,
    version: '1112489448605761542'
  }

ApplicationCommand {
    id: '1112489448605761541',
    applicationId: '1096844434202697728',
    guild: null,
    guildId: null,
    permissions: ApplicationCommandPermissionsManager {
      manager: [Circular *1],
      guild: null,
      guildId: null,
      commandId: '1112489448605761541'
    },
    type: 1,
    nsfw: false,
    name: 'rename',
    nameLocalizations: null,
    nameLocalized: null,
    description: 'Mass renaming of channels',
    descriptionLocalizations: null,
    descriptionLocalized: null,
    options: [ [Object], [Object] ],
    defaultMemberPermissions: PermissionsBitField { bitfield: 16n },
    dmPermission: false,
    version: '1112489448605761542'
  }

to this:

SlashCommandBuilder {
      options: [Array],
      name: 'rename',
      name_localizations: undefined,
      description: 'Mass renaming of channels',
      description_localizations: undefined,
      default_permission: undefined,
      default_member_permissions: '16',
      dm_permission: false,
      nsfw: undefined
    }

SlashCommandBuilder {
      options: [Array],
      name: 'rename',
      name_localizations: undefined,
      description: 'Mass renaming of channels',
      description_localizations: undefined,
      default_permission: undefined,
      default_member_permissions: '16',
      dm_permission: false,
      nsfw: undefined
    }

also don't mind the command action 😅 they are renamed in non-spammy intervals

Use the slashcommandbuilder On the applicationcommand

xubby•12mo ago

how if the scb constructor doesn't take arguments?

MrMythical•12mo ago

What exactly is your use case?

xubby•12mo ago

check system to decide whether to deploy all/new local commands if the commands fetch from the API don't match the local ones

sexy dark chocolate•12mo ago

Well, use the methods You don't have to do it for each an every application command, you can use a map

xubby•12mo ago

💀 if I use the methods, it would be another adventure in rewrite my own slash command builder so stressful

sexy dark chocolate•12mo ago

I thought it was to like, viewthe application command object as a slashcommandbuilder object Maybe if I understand thr goal I'd know what to do

xubby•12mo ago

I mean even if I do so, how would I access the properties. I'm actually stuck on a way to access properties with the same name easily like: dmPermission and dm_permission I would have gone with iterating them with a for..in loop but I really doubt the ordering in the object so my only option is to access them by their names

sexy dark chocolate•12mo ago

I thought that's what the slash command builder was for, to make all the objects alike and compare, comparing names may be easier though since slash command names are unique

xubby•12mo ago

I'm trying to compare the whole object and see if there's any difference, in relation to the other if I serialize it and compare, it will always be false coz the API data contains more properties than the builder object does not to forget the differences in values and names of properties

sexy dark chocolate•12mo ago

Oh then, try converting the builder to json That should give an applicationcommand object

xubby•12mo ago

nah.. it's the same I wish the slash command builder used the same property names as the API does djsGame

sexy dark chocolate•12mo ago

It does, the ApplicationCommand object discord.js returns has its properties in pascalCase Thats the one you are getting I'm not sure how you'd convert a slashcommandbuilder object to that though

it's the opposite, I want the ApplicationCommand -> SlashCommandBuilder object it's weird that APIApplicationCommand is the same as builder object tho 🤔

sexy dark chocolate•12mo ago

The slash command builder is what you use to deploy commands, the applicationcommand object is from like, fetching commands or getting commands from the cache

ya but like having the same property names would be easier coz the only work left would be matching mutual properties in both objects

sexy dark chocolate•12mo ago

Yeah that's why it has the same properties as the apiapplicationcommand object But you said you wanna convert the application command object to a slashcommandbuilder object, why doesn't the builder work for you again?

because I'll have to manually pass each property and who knows how many transformations I'd have to do to each property FeelsBadMan

I guess it's time to move to raw json

sexy dark chocolate•12mo ago

It is alot of work but I can't think of another way, since the builder doesn't provide a method for this nor can you use the constructor so

ikr! :pepehands:
