            for (const eventFile of eventFiles) {
                const eventFunction = require(eventFile);
                await eventFunction(client, arg);
            }
        })

client.on(eventName, async (arg) => {
            for (const eventFile of eventFiles) {
                const eventFunction = require(eventFile);
                await eventFunction(client, arg);
            }

treble/luna•17mo ago

$ MattXOP•17mo ago

i defined it on const eventFunction but i dont know if it means defining im new to this language

treble/luna•17mo ago

and does the file you import export anything

$ MattXOP•17mo ago

this one or other files in my code space ?

treble/luna•17mo ago

the one you try to import your 'eventFile'

$ MattXOP•17mo ago

it's not a file it'a const referred to other files

treble/luna•17mo ago

sigh require is importing a file so your eventFunction is whatever your file exports

$ MattXOP•17mo ago

lets do a thing i send u all the file in exam so u can see

treble/luna•17mo ago

just send the file you are trying to import since you're new i assume you dont have many files

$ MattXOP•17mo ago

const getAllFiles = require("../utils/getAllFiles")
const path = require('path')

module.exports = (client) => {
    const eventFolders = getAllFiles(path.join(__dirname, '..', 'events'), true)

    for (const eventFolder of eventFolders) {
        const eventFiles = getAllFiles(eventFolder);
        eventFiles.sort((a, b) => a > b)
        
        const eventName = eventFolder.replace(/\\/g, '/').split('/').pop()
        
        client.on(eventName, async (arg) => {
            for (const eventFile of eventFiles) {
                const eventFunction = require(eventFile);
                await eventFunction(client, arg);
            }
        })
    }
}

const getAllFiles = require("../utils/getAllFiles")
const path = require('path')

module.exports = (client) => {
    const eventFolders = getAllFiles(path.join(__dirname, '..', 'events'), true)

    for (const eventFolder of eventFolders) {
        const eventFiles = getAllFiles(eventFolder);
        eventFiles.sort((a, b) => a > b)
        
        const eventName = eventFolder.replace(/\\/g, '/').split('/').pop()
        
        client.on(eventName, async (arg) => {
            for (const eventFile of eventFiles) {
                const eventFunction = require(eventFile);
                await eventFunction(client, arg);
            }
        })
    }
}
