I'm new in Discord bot coding and I want to create a command where the bot only replies if the message sender has a specific role.
According to the discord.js documentation I have to use GuildMemberRoleManager.cache. Sadly, it isn't working.
The whole command looks like this:
client.on('messageCreate', (message) => {
if (
message.content.toLowerCase() === prefix + 'test' &&
GuildMemberRoleManager.cache.has(AdminRole)
)
message.reply('test');
});
You should get the author's roles. Only members have roles, so you will need to get the author as a member using message.member. message.member returns a GuildMember and GuildMembers have a roles property that returns a GuildMemberRoleManager (the one you mentioned in your original post).
Its cache property is a collection of the roles of this member, so you can use its has() method to check if the user has the admin role:
client.on('messageCreate', (message) => {
let adminRole = 'ADMIN_ROLE';
let isAdmin = message.member.roles.cache.has(adminRole);
if (message.content.toLowerCase() === prefix + 'test' && isAdmin)
message.reply('test');
});
Define the variables which will make you easy to understand as you are new
const guild = message.guild.id;
const role = guild.roles.cache.get("role id");
const cmduser = message.author;
const member = await guild.members.fetch(cmduser.id);
and make if statement like
if(member.roles.cache.has(role.id)) {
return message.channel.send("test")
}
if you want bot to check if user have administrator perm than
message.member.hasPermission('ADMINISTRATOR')
Check all perm flags on Discord Perm Flags
So according to your code it will be
const guild = message.guild.id;
const role = guild.roles.cache.get("role id");
const cmduser = message.author;
const member = await guild.members.fetch(cmduser.id);
client.on("messageCreate",(message) => {
if(message.content.toLowerCase() === prefix + "test" && member.roles.cache.has(role.id))
message.reply("test")
})
