Many typing issues with Typescript
I am new to DiscordJS, and I keep facing typing issues with Typescript.. There are some examples in the images
I tried many types but none seem to work, does anyone have a solution to suggest ?
Here are my dependencies :
"discord.js": "^14.11.0",
"dotenv": "^16.3.1"
Here are my dev dependencies :
"@types/node": "^20.4.2",
"ts-node": "^10.9.1",
"typescript": "^5.1.6"

- What's your exact discord.js
npm list discord.js and node node -v version?
- Post the full error stack trace, not just the top part!
- Show your code!
- Explain what exactly your issue is.
- Not a discord.js issue? Check out #useful-servers.
- Issue solved? Press the button!for the first error, you'll need to typeguard your interaction
if that's intended for a slash command, you can use
<Interaction>.isChatInputCommand()
otherwise, feel free to check out the docs for the appropriate method
BaseInteraction#isChatInputCommand()
Indicates whether this interaction is a ChatInputCommandInteraction.
We highly recommend you extend the Client structure properly instead of just attaching custom properties like .commands to the regular discord.js Client instance.
- Using typescript, you might want to consider casting or augmenting the module typeI've been checking the documentation for a while but couldn't find solutions to my problem... are DiscordJS and Typescript really a good mix of techonologies or should it be avoided ?
I tried to check forums too, but it seems like I'm the only person that has so many typing issues
I'm wondering if I did something extremely wrong or if DiscordJS is not suited for Typescript hehe
it's fine to use ts
the errors you're receiving are a result of discord.js having typescript support
however it's not required to use ts if you don't feel comfortable enough with ts basics
if you're following the official guide, make sure to take note of the tips and warnings in colored boxes
often ts specific things will be noted there
Okie I see
I was wondering because I already get multiple typing issues after writing about 10 lines of code so...
But okie
Thank you
