# Bot owner only commands

{% embed url="<https://youtu.be/_67r4wq23BA?t=512>" %}

Some commands should only be available to the bot owners. A perfect example of this is a "status" command that updates the status of your bot. WOKCommands comes with this capability.

Here is how your command file should be setup:

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="JavaScript" %}
{% code title="status.js" %}

```javascript
const { CommandType } = require("wokcommands");

const setStatus = (client, status) => {
  client.user?.setPresence({
    status: "online",
    activities: [
      {
        name: status,
        type: ActivityType.Playing,
      },
    ],
  });
};

module.exports = {
  description: "Sets the bot's status",

  type: CommandType.BOTH,

  minArgs: 1,
  expectedArgs: "<status>",

  ownerOnly: true,

  callback: ({ client, text }) => {
    setStatus(client, text);

    return {
      content: `Set status to "${text}"`,
    };
  },
};
```

{% endcode %}
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="TypeScript" %}
{% code title="status.ts" %}

```typescript
import { ActivityType, Client } from "discord.js";
import { CommandObject, CommandType, CommandUsage } from "wokcommands";

const setStatus = (client: Client, status: string) => {
  client.user?.setPresence({
    status: "online",
    activities: [
      {
        name: status,
        type: ActivityType.Playing,
      },
    ],
  });
};

export default {
  description: "Sets the bot's status",

  type: CommandType.BOTH,

  minArgs: 1,
  expectedArgs: "<status>",

  ownerOnly: true,

  callback: (options: CommandUsage) => {
    const { client, text } = options;
    setStatus(client, text);

    return {
      content: `Set status to "${text}"`,
    };
  },
} as CommandObject;
```

{% endcode %}
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

Whenever we initialize WOKCommands we can pass in any number of IDs for the owner's Discord accounts:

{% hint style="info" %}
The bot owner's ID is automatically added to the bot owner list. If you are the only developer working on your project you do not need to add your ID.
{% endhint %}

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="JavaScript" %}
{% code title="index.js" %}

```javascript
const path = require("path");
const WOK = require("wokcommands");
require("dotenv/config");

const client = new Client({
  intents: [
    IntentsBitField.Flags.Guilds,
    IntentsBitField.Flags.GuildMessages,
    IntentsBitField.Flags.DirectMessages,
    IntentsBitField.Flags.MessageContent,
  ],
  partials: [Partials.Channel],
});

client.on("ready", () => {
  console.log("The bot is ready");

  new WOK({
    client,
    commandsDir: path.join(__dirname, "commands"),
    botOwners: ["Your_ID_Here"]
  });
});

client.login(process.env.TOKEN);
```

{% endcode %}
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="TypeScript" %}
{% code title="index.ts" %}

```typescript
import { Client, IntentsBitField, Partials } from "discord.js";
import path from "path";
import WOK from "wokcommands";
require("dotenv/config");

const client = new Client({
  intents: [
    IntentsBitField.Flags.Guilds,
    IntentsBitField.Flags.GuildMessages,
    IntentsBitField.Flags.DirectMessages,
    IntentsBitField.Flags.MessageContent,
  ],
  partials: [Partials.Channel],
});

client.on("ready", () => {
  console.log("The bot is ready");

  new WOK({
    client,
    commandsDir: path.join(__dirname, "commands"),
    botOwners: ["Your_ID_Here"]
  });
});

client.login(process.env.TOKEN);
```
