Is there a better way to handle both message and slash commands?

Docs say that you have to override

messageRun

messageRun

method to handle message commands and override

chatInputRun

chatInputRun

for slash commands.
This leads to unnecessary code duplication, since logic would be mostly the same.

expose something like hybrid commands , so you can write a single handler for any interaction, is there an equivalent for Sapphire?

Solution

just extract most logic to a separate function and call it from both, i.e. the ping commands from sapphiredev/examples repo
