So I tried a lot of ways to locking a channel to a specific role, this is one of my attempt code:
Locking the channel
const Command = require("../structures/Command.js");
const { Permissions } = require('discord.js');
module.exports = new Command({
name: "lock",
description: "lock the channel that the command is executed",
async run(message, args, client) {
if (message.author.bot) return;
if (message.member.permissions.has(Permissions.FLAGS.ADMINISTRATOR)){
let role = message.guild.roles.cache(r => r.id === "895151537511362600");
role.overwritePermissions(UserResolvable, {
VIEW_CHANNEL: true,
SEND_MESSAGES: false,
READ_MESSAGE_HISTORY: true,
ATTACH_FILES: false
});
} else message.reply(`why do you want to use a mod command when you're not a mod`)
}
});
Unlocking:
const Command = require("../structures/Command.js");
const { Permissions } = require('discord.js');
module.exports = new Command({
name: "unlock",
description: "unlock the channel that the command is executed",
async run(message, args, client) {
if (message.author.bot) return;
if (message.member.permissions.has(Permissions.FLAGS.ADMINISTRATOR)){
let role = message.guild.roles.cache(r => r.id === "895151537511362600");
role.overwritePermissions(UserResolvable, {
VIEW_CHANNEL: true,
SEND_MESSAGES: true,
READ_MESSAGE_HISTORY: true,
ATTACH_FILES: true
});
} else message.reply(`why do you want to use a mod command when you're not a mod`)
}
});
It didn't work, also returned a error say UserResolvable is not defined
I also tried this method and it still didn't work
According to the docs you use channel.permissionOverwrites.edit()
So your lock code would look something like this:
message.channel.permissionOverwrites.edit(message.guild.everyone.id, {
VIEW_CHANNEL: false,
SEND_MESSAGES: false,
READ_MESSAGE_HISTORY: false,
ATTACH_FILES: false
});
message.channel.permissionOverwrites.edit("ROLE_ID", {
VIEW_CHANNEL: true,
SEND_MESSAGES: true,
READ_MESSAGE_HISTORY: true,
ATTACH_FILES: true
});
And then for the unlock command just change the permission values.
To lock use like this
channel.permissionOverwrites.edit(channel.guild.roles.everyone, {
SEND_MESSAGES: false
}).catch((e) => { console.error(e) })
