I. About

A discord.js extension for easily building and receiving your Discord Slash Commands. For an in-depth documentation visit the documentation website. Or join the support server to talk with the developer. Please note that this package is not affiliated with discord.js.

II. Quick Start

A. Installing

Run npm install on the command line or terminal.
npm install @ming-suhi/djs-commando

B. Creating a Command

To create a command, start by making a file inside a designated folder. Require/import the needed command class from @ming-suhi/djs-commando. Top level command classes include SlashCommand, MessageCommand, and UserCommand. To create a command, extend the chosen class and set its name and description in the constructor(MessageCommand and UserCommand doesn't have a description). Add an execute method with one parameter of Interaction type. This method will run if the command is called by a user from Discord. Finally, for command to be handled by the package, export it with module.exports.

const { SlashCommand } = require('@ming-suhi/djs-commando');

const command = new class extends SlashCommand {
  constructor() {
    super();
    this.name = "ping";
    this.description = "get ponged";
  }

  async execute(interaction) {
    await interaction.reply("pong");
  }
}

module.exports = command;

C. Adding Command Options

A SlashCommand can take on options which includes subcommands, subcommand groups and fields. To create a subcommand, import Subcommand from @ming-suhi/djs-commando, and create a new class extending Subcommand and set its name and description in the constructor. To attach the subcommand to a SlashCommand or subcommand group pass it inside super. Creating a subcommand group is similar to creating a subcommand. Available fields are StringField, IntegerField, BooleanField, UserField, ChannelField, RoleField, MentionableField, NumberField, and AttachmentField. To create a field, create a new instance of the chosen field class which takes on 3 arguments: a name and description and a boolean that states if the field is required. Attach it to a Slashcommand or Subcommand inside super.

const { SlashCommand, Subcommand, StringField } = require('@ming-suhi/djs-commando');

const message = new StringField('message', 'message to echo', true);

const subcommand = new class extends Subcommand {
  constructor() {
    super([message]);
    this.name = "message";
    this.description = "echos a message";
  }

  async execute(interaction) {
    const messageArg = interaction.options.getString("message");
    await interaction.reply(messageArg);
  }
}

const command = new class extends SlashCommand {
  constructor() {
    super([subcommand]);
    this.name = "echo";
    this.description = "echo commands";
  }
}

module.exports = command; // Only export top command

D. Registering Commands

Before receiving commands, load all commands. First, require InteractionsHandler from @ming-suhi/djs-commando. Create new instance of InteractionsHandler and call loadCommands method. The method requires one argument which is the path to the commands folder.

const { InteractionsHandler } = require('@ming-suhi/djs-commando');

const handler = new InteractionsHandler();
handler.loadCommands("ABSOLUTE/PATH/TO/COMMANDS/FOLDER");

E. Receiving Commands

To receive commands, call handleInteraction method on interactionCreate event. Interactions handler will manage getting the matching command and executing it when interaction is received.

client.on('interactionCreate', async interaction => {
  await handler.handleInteraction(interaction);
});

F. Posting Commands

Optionally, you can install @ming-suhi/djsc-cli to easily manage(post, delete, update) your commands from the command line.

npm install @ming-suhi/djsc-cli
//djsc.config.js
const { mapCommands } = require("@ming-suhi/djs-commando");

module.exports = {
  appId: "DISCORD_APP_ID",
  botToken: "DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN",
  mapCommands: () => mapCommands("ABSOLUTE/PATH/TO/COMMANDS/FOLDER")
}
