Node.JS Error

[Stentorian]

Hello, 

 

I am trying to create a sponsor command for my public Discord bot but I want to make it interactive so that when a user reacts to the message with the corresponding emoji, it will send the embed. I have removed the embeds for privacy reasons but I need some help. Refer to the code and error below. 

 

CODE: https://hasteb.in/ugaxoqen.js

ERROR: https://hasteb.in/decegova.coffeescript

 

Many Thanks. 

Ben

Remove ".message" from here:

 

Since the users property is part of MessageReaction class, not Message.

I now get this error message:

Maybe reaction isn't in the format you think it is, console log reaction and take a look

I console log'd reaction and got this https://hasteb.in/yixigiyu.yaml

 

What I am trying to do is set up the bot so it ignores itself when reacting to a message which is why the bot thing is there.

So I've got it semi-working. https://hastebin.com/otidizosec.js

 

The only problem now is that nothing happens when I react to the message. No errors at all.

line 25, 

                if (bot = true) return;

I'm guessing you meant:

if (bot !== true) return;

The users property is a Collection so you'll need to do:

if (reaction.users.first().bot) bot = true;

No. I need it to ignore when the bot reacts to the message at the start so it doesn't get triggered by that and instead when a user reacts.

So I've changed it to this https://hasteb.in/opusoxay.js following what you said and now whenever I react to the message, nothing happens. Nothing in the console either.

Are you sure reaction.emoji.name matches what you're comparing it to? Try comparing it to the name that is labelled in the emoji picker instead:

Your if statement on line 8 isn't checking if the variable is equal to true. It's setting the value to true instead. If the value is a boolean, simply make it:

if(bot) return;

Also about detecting which emoji you're placing: Don't use emoji in your code. There's a reference about using emoji with discord.js here: https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/class/ReactionEmoji

Maybe name isn't what you think it is? Try logging the result of getting the emoji's name to see if it prints something similar to "regional_indicator_k". I haven't dealt with reactions myself but it's worth a shot.

I've just given up on using a reaction system and I've just gone to sub-commands. Thanks for the help though!
