I'm trying to build a command, that looks something like this: p!set log channelCreate channelDelete channelPinsUpdate channelUpdate
I can type these arguments channelCreate channelDelete channelPinsUpdate channelUpdate but only in the correct order, so that everything is removed from the database. But I want that it doesn't matter how to specify the arguments, e.g. channelPinsUpdate channelCreate channelUpdate channelDelete
I suspect I am doing something wrong, but unfortunately I don't know what
All you are doing is removing the log from db with same arguments so you can just do this instead:
const logs = [
"channelCreate",
"channelDelete",
"channelPinsUpdate",
"channelUpdate",
];
if (!logs.includes(args[1])) return message.channel.send({ content: "log typ error" });
db.remove_logging(message.guildId, args[1]);
The code checks for valid log from logs array and if args[1] is invalid, it returns error. Otherwise, it executes remove_logging method of db.
It's the logic of your loops that isn't consistent. You must first loop over the arguments and thus test if each of them is a log and thus execute your deletion. In this way, all the arguments will be compared to the logs and it doesn't matter the order of the arguments. Try this:
for (let i = 1, arg; arg = args[i]; ++i) {
if (arg.startsWith("channelCreate")) {
db.remove_logging(message.guildId, arg)
} else if (arg.startsWith("channelDelete")) {
db.remove_logging(message.guildId, arg)
} else if (arg.startsWith("channelPinsUpdate")) {
db.remove_logging(message.guildId, arg)
} else if (arg.startsWith("channelUpdate")) {
db.remove_logging(message.guildId, arg)
} else {
return message.channel.send({ content: "log typ error" })
}
}
