So currently I have a bot that uses discord.js and every time I try to use my deploy-commands.js file, I get an undefined error that says Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'name') (when reading command.data.name). This has confused me because apparently, from reading other articles similar to this one, it's usually due to someone having a file that does not export a data object in their commands folder; however, all of mine do. What can I do to fix this?
my deploy-commands.js file:
const fs = require('node:fs');
const path = require('node:path');
const { REST } = require('@discordjs/rest');
const { Routes } = require('discord-api-types/v9');
const { clientId, token } = require('./config.json');
const rest = new REST({ version: '9' }).setToken(token);
const commands = [];
const commandsPath = path.join(__dirname, 'commands');
const commandFiles = fs.readdirSync(commandsPath).filter(file => file.endsWith('.js'));
for (const file of commandFiles) {
const filePath = path.join(commandsPath, file);
const command = require(filePath);
commands.push(command.data.toJSON());
}
const buttonCommands = [];
const buttonCommandsPath = path.join(__dirname, 'buttonCommands');
const buttonCommandFiles = fs.readdirSync(buttonCommandsPath).filter(file => file.endsWith('.js'));
for (const file of buttonCommandFiles) {
const filePath = path.join(buttonCommandsPath, file);
const command = require(filePath);
buttonCommands.push(command);
}
module.exports = { buttonCommands };
(async () => {
try {
console.log('Started refreshing application (/) commands.');
await rest.put(
Routes.applicationCommands(clientId),
{ body: commands },
);
console.log('Successfully reloaded application (/) commands.');
} catch (error) {
console.error(error);
}
})();image of all of my commands for reference: click here
if it's needed, here is also a link to a sourcebin that shows the code for all of these commands and my index.js file: https://srcb.in/mtqWFVLAeN
module.exports = { buttonCommands };
It looks like here you are only exporting buttonCommands, but not commands.
