I have a command where I want to write the id of a user in a voice channel into an array. So far, I managed to write the whole collection of the user with joinedTimestamp etc. Now I want to extract the id of the user from the collection.
My command looks like this:
client.on('messageCreate', (message) => {
let waitingroom = message.guild.channels.cache.get("952324088762867722")
let player = [];
let isadmin = message.member.roles.cache.has(adminRole);
if (message.content.toLowerCase() === prefix + 'startgame' && isadmin) {
player.push(waitingroom.members);
console.log(player);
}
});
And this is what I get from the array when 2 users are in the waitingroom:
[
Collection(2) [Map] {
'392776445375545355' => GuildMember {
guild: [Guild],
joinedTimestamp: 1646940658665,
premiumSinceTimestamp: null,
nickname: null,
pending: false,
communicationDisabledUntilTimestamp: null,
_roles: [Array],
user: [User],
avatar: null
},
'849388169614196737' => GuildMember {
guild: [Guild],
joinedTimestamp: 1647168003344,
premiumSinceTimestamp: null,
nickname: 'Test-Account [Nils]',
pending: false,
communicationDisabledUntilTimestamp: null,
_roles: [],
user: [User],
avatar: null
}
}
]
But I only want the user ids from the collection. I appreciate any help.
Better solution, see accepted answer.
First you need to create a variable with an empty array.
Then you can use the .map function of the member Collection to push the user id's to the array.
let arr = [];
<Channel>.members.map(user => {
arr.push(user.id);
});
The accepted answer is a bit verbose. Collection#map() returns an array and accepts a callback function, so all you have to do is to iterate over the members and return their ids:
let waitingRoom = message.guild.channels.cache.get('952324088762867722')
let memberIDs = waitingRoom.members.map(member => member.id)
Now, memberIDs is an array of the snowflakes/IDs of the members. No need to create a new array or use the push method. Actually, you should never really use map with push or other methods that mutate arrays.
