I am getting an error (Cannot read property 'delete' of undefined). It's probably an easy fix but I can't seem to figure out how to fix it.
The error:
message.delete({timeout: 1000})
TypeError: Cannot read property 'delete' of undefined
My code:
const client = new Client();
let count = 0;
let timeout;
client.on('message', ({ channel, content, member, message }) => {
if (channel.id === '933939208102494270') {
if (member.user.bot) return;
if (Number(content) === count + 1) {
count++;
if (timeout) clearTimeout(timeout);
timeout = setTimeout(
() => channel.send(++count).catch(console.error),
100
);
} else if (member.id !== client.user.id) {
message.delete({
timeout: 1000,
});
channel.send(`${member} messed up!`).catch(console.error);
message.delete({
timeout: 1000,
});
// count = 0
if (timeout) clearTimeout(timeout);
}
}
});
of undefined
look left of this... so message is undefined, log what that is at the top of client.on, will find that message is undefined and thus delete does not exist.
The problem is that you try to destructure the first parameter of the callback, which is a Message object, and a Message doesn't have a message property. If you need the message, you can destructure it inside the function.
So instead of
client.on('message', ({ channel, content, member, message }) => {
// ...
it should be
client.on('message', (message) => {
let { channel, content, member } = message
// ...
This way you can use any other property and method of the message.
