Bot owner only commands

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:

JavaScript

status.js

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}"`,
    };
  },
};

TypeScript

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

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.

JavaScript

index.js

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);
