Command categories
For categories to be displayed in the built-in help menu you must specify them when initializing WOKCommands. This can be done like so:
JavaScript
TypeScript
index.js
const DiscordJS = require('discord.js')
const WOKCommands = require('wokcommands')
const path = require('path')
​
const { Intents } = DiscordJS
​
const client = new DiscordJS.Client({
  // These intents are recommended for the built in help menu
  intents: [
    Intents.FLAGS.GUILDS,
    Intents.FLAGS.GUILD_MESSAGES,
    Intents.FLAGS.GUILD_MESSAGE_REACTIONS,
  ],
})
​
client.on('ready', () => {
    new WOKCommands(client, {
        // The name of the local folder for your command files
        commandsDir: path.join(__dirname, 'commands')
    })
        .setCategorySettings([
            {
                name: 'Fun & Games',
                emoji: '🎮'
            },
            {
                name: 'Economy',
                emoji: '💸'
            },
            {
                // You can change the default emojis as well
                // "Configuration" is ⚙ by default
                name: 'Configuration',
                emoji: '🚧',
                // You can also hide a category from the help menu
                // Admins bypass this
                hidden: true
            },
            {
                // You can also use custom emojis by specifying the ID
                // NOTE: Your bot MUST be in the same server as the emoji
                name: 'Example',
                // :typescript: emoji ID from the WOK server
                emoji: '814238393747243009',
                customEmoji: true
            },
            {
                // You can also specify the full name of the emoji without the boolean
                // WOKCommands will detect that this is custom and get the ID
                // NOTE: Your bot MUST be in the same server as the emoji
                name: 'Example',
                // :typescript: emoji String from the WOK server
                emoji: '<:typescript:791512440021975062>'
            }
        ])
})
