I'm doing a slash command handler using discord.js, and I'm getting the "not a function" error. I saw other questions here and some videos on YouTube but I still couldn't solve the problem
This is the code
client.on('interactionCreate', async (interaction => {
if (!interaction.isCommand()) return
const command = client.commands.get(interaction.commandName)
if (!command) return
}))
And this is the error
client.on('interactionCreate', async (interaction => {
^
TypeError: async is not a function

I have tried:
npm i async
and var async = require('async')
Before I created the variable the error was that async was not defined but now it shows this new error
You misplaced a ")"
client.on("interactionCreate", async (interaction) => {
if (!interaction.isCommand()) return;
const command = client.commands.get(interaction.commandName);
if (!command) return;
});
You are calling client.on('interactionCreate', f ) where f is represented as:
async (interaction => {
if (!interaction.isCommand()) return
const command = client.commands.get(interaction.commandName)
if (!command) return
})
JavaScript is interpreting this as async( ... ).
You can either remove the parentheses surrounding your function, or move the closing parentheses to the end of the arguments of your arrow function.
client.on('interactionCreate', async interaction => {
if (!interaction.isCommand()) return
const command = client.commands.get(interaction.commandName)
if (!command) return
})
OR
client.on('interactionCreate', async (interaction) => {
if (!interaction.isCommand()) return
const command = client.commands.get(interaction.commandName)
if (!command) return
})
