Responses to bot commands

[MrPRAINGLE]

Hey !

Recently, when I was coding, I went in a trouble. In the bot that I actually use (so not the mine), it is possible to answer commands. For an example, you can type "!clear" and the bot asks you how many messages you want to delete. If you answer by a number, it will delete as any messages as specified by this number.

I tried with the "Client.on("message")" technique, but the problem is that you can only response once. Could you help me please ?

You should try using awaitMessages

Thanks ! But I meant to like... tp send a message such as "This is not an ID" if the wanted value is a snowflake

[ghost]

const msg = await client.channels.cache.get(channelid).fetchMessage(messageid);

if(!msg) {
    return msg.channel.send("Invalid Snowflake Id")
}

Could be resolved like this. This is not the best code but you can improve it.

Note: Its DJS V12

[ghost]

const msg = await msg.channel.messages.fetch(messageid);

if(!msg){
    return msg.channel.send("Invalid Snowflake ID");
} 

const deletedMessage = await msg.delete();

This one is the solution for the Current Stable Version. This is not a definite solution because improvements could be made.

It's a good method, but if we do a !ban + , the bot answers This not a snowflake, idiot. try again" and I want that if the user sends a correct snowflake (without !ban``) the user that corresponds to the snowflake get banned... I saw this on several bots but I don't know how does that works

You could change the maximum amount messages needed to be collected. Use the max property for setting the maximum messages. You could remove the property for infinite message collection.

eg:

msg.channel.awaitMessages({ filter, max: 4,})
