I'm making a bot with Discord.js and this is my code:
const { CommandInteraction, Interaction } = require("discord.js");
module.exports = {
name: "test",
description: "Tests the bot.",
ephemeral: "false",
permission: "SEND_MESSAGES",
/**
*
* @param {CommandInteraction} interaction
*/
execute(interaction) {
interaction.reply({content: "Testing..."})
.then(interaction => {
setTimeout(function(){
interaction.editReply("Test Successful ✔")
}, 3000)
})
}
}
But I get an error in the terminal when I try to start the bot. This is the error I get:
C:\Users\Manuel\Desktop\Manuel\Programs\Programming\Visual Studio Code\Helix32 (Discord)\Commands\Developer\test.js:16
interaction.editReply("Test Successful ✔")
^

You need to set the fetchReply to true to return the message, but there really is no need... just use the original interaction
interaction.reply({content: "Testing..."})
.then(() => { //no "interaction" declaration
setTimeout(function(){
interaction.editReply("Test Successful ✔") //use original interaction object
}, 3000)
})
I think you are seeing this because you're not getting the interaction back, from the prior call. If you use this (including the flag), it should help:
interaction.reply({ content: 'Pong!', fetchReply: true })
cheers!
