I wanted to make a command to make the bot return its connection status to the database, but I got an error and I am a little confused now.
RangeError [MESSAGE_CONTENT_TYPE]: Message content must be a non-empty string.
const { MessageEmbed } = require('discord.js');
const quick = require('quick.db');
module.exports = {
name: 'ping',
aliases: [],
description: 'Get bot ping.',
permissions: [],
async execute(message, client) {
const ping = await getDBPingData();
const messagePing = Date.now();
const msg = await message.channel.send('Loading...');
const endMessagePing = Date.now() - messagePing;
const embed = new MessageEmbed()
.setDescription(
`
Database ping data:
- Fetch ping: \`${ping.endGet}ms\`
- Wright ping: \`${ping.endWright}ms\`
- Avrage ping: \`${ping.avarage}ms\`
Message ping: \`${endMessagePing}ms\`
`
)
.setColor('GREEN')
.setTimestamp();
msg.edit({
content: '',
embed,
});
},
};
async function getDBPingData() {
// get the fetch data ping
const startGet = Date.now();
await quick.get('QR=.');
const endGet = Date.now() - startGet;
// get the wright data ping
const startWright = Date.now();
await quick.set('QR=.', Buffer.from(startWright.toString()).toString('base64'));
const endWright = Date.now() - startWright;
// avrage ping time
const avarage = (endGet + endWright) / 2;
try {
quick.delete('QR=.');
} catch (error) {}
return { endGet, endWright, avarage };
}
I am using discord.js v13, and the packages in use for this command are: discord.js and quick.db.
Try this:
// only need to edit embed in an embeds array
msg.edit({ embeds: [embed] })
In v13, messages sent by bots now support up to 10 embeds. As a result, the embed option was removed and replaced with an embeds array, which must be in the options object, so your message edit should be msg.edit({ embeds: [embed] }).
If you also want to remove the previous text (Loading...), you need to add content: null as providing an empty string ('') as the content will throw a RangeError.
msg.edit({
content: null,
embeds: [embed],
});
