Send message to specific channel
Hi i'm trying to get a list of textchannels to log to. But when i use client.channels.fetch i keep getting 'null'?
here's my code.
the config.SEXY_LOG_CHANNELS is an env var with the channels id seperated by commas.
here's my code.
const channels: TextChannel[] = []
for (const i of config.SEXY_LOG_CHANNELS.split(",")) {
let channel: Channel | null | undefined;
try {
channel = client.channels.fetch(i);
} catch (e) {
if ((e as DiscordAPIError).code === 50001) console.error("SexyUP: Bot doesn't have access to this channel.", i)
continue
}
if (!channel || channel === null) {
console.error("SexyUP: Channel wasn't found.", i, i === null)
continue
}
if (!(channel instanceof TextChannel)) {
console.error("SexyUP: Message isn't a text channel", i)
continue
}
if (!client.user) {
console.error("SexyUP: Something went terribly wrong, the bot user doesn't exist? Very weird.")
continue
}
const permissions = channel.permissionsFor(client.user);
if (!permissions || !permissions.has("SendMessages")) {
console.error("SexyUP: No permissions to send messages in this channel. ", i, permissions)
continue
}
channels.push(channel)
}const channels: TextChannel[] = []
for (const i of config.SEXY_LOG_CHANNELS.split(",")) {
let channel: Channel | null | undefined;
try {
channel = client.channels.fetch(i);
} catch (e) {
if ((e as DiscordAPIError).code === 50001) console.error("SexyUP: Bot doesn't have access to this channel.", i)
continue
}
if (!channel || channel === null) {
console.error("SexyUP: Channel wasn't found.", i, i === null)
continue
}
if (!(channel instanceof TextChannel)) {
console.error("SexyUP: Message isn't a text channel", i)
continue
}
if (!client.user) {
console.error("SexyUP: Something went terribly wrong, the bot user doesn't exist? Very weird.")
continue
}
const permissions = channel.permissionsFor(client.user);
if (!permissions || !permissions.has("SendMessages")) {
console.error("SexyUP: No permissions to send messages in this channel. ", i, permissions)
continue
}
channels.push(channel)
