(copied from #djs-help-v14 ) https://bork.treble-is-fluffy.gay/floof69c30ca6.png I'm getting this ts error with the following code. Whenever i add another options it goes away and i dont really have a clue what is going on since i just typed it as SlashCommandBuilder.

 data:  new SlashCommandBuilder()
    .setName('deleteanon').setDMPermission(false)
    .setDescription('Delete your anonymous message')
    .addStringOption( opt =>
        opt
        .setName('message')
        .setDescription('The ID of the message (not link!)')
        .setMaxLength(19)
        .setRequired(true)
        )

 data:  new SlashCommandBuilder()
    .setName('deleteanon').setDMPermission(false)
    .setDescription('Delete your anonymous message')
    .addStringOption( opt =>
        opt
        .setName('message')
        .setDescription('The ID of the message (not link!)')
        .setMaxLength(19)
        .setRequired(true)
        )

Now, this also happens with commands that have sub commands

   data: new SlashCommandBuilder() 
    .setName('user') /*.setDMPermission(false)*/
.setDefaultMemberPermissions(PermissionsBitField.Flags.ModerateMembers)
    .setDescription('User interface')

    .addSubcommand((cmd : SlashCommandSubcommandBuilder) =>
        cmd
        .setName('kick')
        .addUserOption(option => 
            option 
            .setName("user")
            .setDescription("The user to kick")
            .setRequired(true)
            )
        .addStringOption(o =>
            o.setName('reason')
            .setDescription('The reason')
            )
        .setDescription("Kick someone")
    )

    .addSubcommand((cmd : SlashCommandSubcommandBuilder) =>
        cmd
        .setName('warn')
        .addMentionableOption(option => 
            option 
            .setName("user")
            .setDescription("The user to warn")
            .setRequired(true)
            )
        .addStringOption(o =>
            o.setName('reason')
            .setDescription('The reason')
            .setRequired(true)

    )

To declare the data type use Pick<SlashCommandBuilder, 'name' | 'toJSON'> and other properties you actually need.

treble/luna•13mo ago

i maybe should've used pastebin ah that fixes it indeed, still weird though that changing the position of .setDMPermissions solved it in my previous code

Aircraft Overviewer•13mo ago

Changing the position of #setDMPermissions() "solved" it before because the type check you had in place was for a SlashCommandBuilder and it seems that setting the DM permissions after a slash command option removes the omitted generic from the instance. As Syjalo already pointed out, adding a generic to account for this in your check removes the issue all together as it allows for this omitted generic to pass the type check as well as a regular SlashCommandBuilder instance :P
