Well, events messageUpdate and messageDelete doesn't "work" after restarting the bot
I mean, they don't respond to messages that were sent before the restart
I added MESSAGE to partials
Now the events works, but there is a problem with the if (newMessage.author.bot) return and if (message.author.bot) return and generally with message|newMessage.author|member etc.
Here are the error:
TypeError: Cannot read properties of null (reading 'bot')

Can someone help? I need these partials MESSAGE to messageUpdate because the bot did not respond to messages that were sent after restart. More specifically, to the automod, i.e. that it deletes invitations if someone has edited the message and has no permissions
messageUpdate
module.exports = class {
constructor(client) {
this.client = client;
}
async run(oldMessage, newMessage) {
const data = {};
const client = this.client;
data.config = client.config;
if (newMessage.author.bot) return;
if (!newMessage.editedAt) return;
code that deleted invites if member has not permissions
}
};
messageDelete
module.exports = class {
constructor(client) {
this.client = client;
}
async run(message) {
const data = {};
const client = this.client;
data.config = client.config;
if (message.author.bot) return;
Code that snipes deleted message
}
}
The error means that newMessage.author is null. You already knew that you would need to use the MESSAGE partials.
The problem is that you don't check if the received message is a partial only.
A partial message will not contain all of the original Message parameters. The id, the channelId, and the guildId will be present, but others, like author, can be null.
To solve this, you'll need to check if your message is partial only, and if it is, you can fetch it and use it as usual:
module.exports = class {
constructor(client) {
this.client = client;
}
async run(oldMessage, newMessage) {
const data = {};
const client = this.client;
data.config = client.config;
if (oldMessage.partial) oldMessage = await oldMessage.fetch();
if (newMessage.partial) newMessage = await newMessage.fetch();
if (newMessage.author.bot) return;
if (!newMessage.editedAt) return;
// code that deleted invites if the member has no permissions
}
};
