I'm trying to get the memberCount from my discord bot to be sent to my home.js file but I cannot find a way to send the live memberCount from the async arrow function to a variable in order to render it to my home.js file.

The error I get:

TypeError: Cannot read property 'memberCount' of undefined in discord.js

The code:

const express = require("express");
const bodyParser = require("body-parser");
const { Client, Guild, Intents } = require('discord.js');
const client = new Client({ intents: [Intents.FLAGS.GUILDS] });
const tracks = require(__dirname + '/tracks.js')
require("dotenv").config();

const app = express();

// members check up
const guild = client.guilds.cache.get('797158503247511592');
const memberCount = guild.memberCount;
const members = memberCount.toLocaleString();

console.log(members)


app.set('view engine', 'ejs');

app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({
  extended: true
}));
app.use(express.static("public"));

app.get("/", function(req, res){
  res.render("home");
});

app.listen(3000, function(){
  console.log("Server started on port 3000.");
});

client.on('ready', () => {
  console.log(`Logged in as ${client.user.tag}!`);
  console.log(`${client.guild}`)
});

client.on('interactionCreate', async interaction => {
  if (!interaction.isCommand()) return;

  if (interaction.commandName === 'ping') {
    await interaction.reply('Pong!');
  }
});

client.login(process.env.TOKEN);
