I'm trying to make a snipe command for the dc bot but I can't get the embed to reset. Tried putting embed = {} in different locations, then it tries sending an empty message the next time and errors out. Also it's let embed now since I was testing, tried const first. Edit: works now when checking messages elsewhere, should have done that to start with. Code:
bot.on('messageDelete', message => {
let embed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
.setAuthor(`${message.author.username} (${message.author.id})`, message.author.avatarURL())
.setDescription(message.content || "None")
bot.on('message', message => {
const args = message.content.slice(PREFIX.length).split(/ +/);
const cmd = args.shift().toLowerCase();
if (cmd === 'msg'){
message.channel.send(embed)
}
})
})
You don't need a embed = {}, instead use client.snipes = new Map() as collector. So if someone delete message when the bot online, the bot can detect it.
client.snipes = new Map()
client.on('messageDelete', function(message, channel) {
client.snipes.set(message.channel.id, {
content: message.content,
author: message.author,
image: message.attachments.first() ? message.attachments.first().proxyURL : null
})
}) //This will be your collector on your index file.
Then create a command file.
const msg = client.snipes.get(message.channel.id)
if(!msg) return message.channel.send("Didn't find any deleted messages.")
const embed = new MessageEmbed()
.setDescription(`Your_Message`)
.setTimestamp()
if(msg.image) embed.setImage(msg.image) //If image deleted, it will go here.
message.channel.send({ embeds: [embed] })
Every time a message is deleted you are resubscribing to the message event. I would suggest taking some of that logic to the outside of that scope.
let embed = null;
bot.on('messageDelete', message => {
embed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
.setAuthor(`${message.author.username} (${message.author.id})`, message.author.avatarURL())
.setDescription(message.content || "None")
})
bot.on('message', message => {
const args = message.content.slice(PREFIX.length).split(/ +/);
const cmd = args.shift().toLowerCase();
if (cmd === 'msg' && embed){
message.channel.send(embed)
}
})
