Creating a Commands

This is the basic structure of a command.

JavaScript

ping.js

const Discord = require("discord.js");
module.exports = {
  name: "ping",
  aliases: ["pong"],
  execute({ bot, message, args, hkandler }) {
    let pingEmbed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
      .setColor("RANDOM")
      .setTitle("Pong!")
      .setDescription(`API Latency: ${bot.ws.ping}ms!`);
    message.channel.send(pingEmbed);
  },
};

TypeScript

ping.ts

import { Client, Message } from "discord.js"
import { HKandler } from "hkutilities/dist/structures/hkandler"
export = {
  name: "ping",
  execute({ bot, message, args, hkandler }: {bot: Client, message: Message, args: string[], hkandler: HKandler}) {
    let pingEmbed = new MessageEmbed()
      .setColor("RANDOM")
      .setTitle("Pong!")
      .setDescription(`API Latency: ${bot.ws.ping}ms!`);
    message.channel.send(pingEmbed);
  },
}

You can use execute, run, or callback in your command with the default message event

With the default message event, the following properties can be used:

• Aliases => other names that the command can be called with

• clientPerms => the permission(s) that the bot will need when running a command

• userPerms => the permission(s) that the user will need when running a command

• minArgs => the minimum amount of arguments

• maxArgs => the maximum amount of arguments

• ownerOnly => set it so only bot owners can use the command

• cooldown => number of seconds between each command use per user
