Using Slash Command to send a message in a different chat and I want to capture the response

Ikke · 2024-07-18T03:17:43.635Z

Hey I have this code that once a process is finished I'll notify the result in a different channel and I want to collect the first response of this other channel to continue to another step. How to await for the response and store the data? ```js if (notify) { client.channels.fetch(cat.channel).then(channel => { channel.send({ content: `:megaphone: **New update!**\n\n${cat.emoji} [${cat.name}] ${map.author} - ${map.code} - ${status.description}\n${map.picture}` }) }); }```

Similar to createMessageCollector but in promise form. Resolves with a collection of messages that pass the specified filter.

// Await !vote messages
const filter = m => m.content.startsWith('!vote');
// Errors: ['time'] treats ending because of the time limit as an error
channel.awaitMessages({ filter, max: 4, time: 60_000, errors: ['time'] })
  .then(collected => console.log(collected.size))
  .catch(collected => console.log(`After a minute, only ${collected.size} out of 4 voted.`));

// Await !vote messages
const filter = m => m.content.startsWith('!vote');
// Errors: ['time'] treats ending because of the time limit as an error
channel.awaitMessages({ filter, max: 4, time: 60_000, errors: ['time'] })
  .then(collected => console.log(collected.size))
