locale
anyone having issues getting locale from users when initiating a command? i added all the logs, seems no mater what, or the intents, Won't let me see the locale for use with i18n
const { SlashCommandBuilder } = require("discord.js");
const i18n = require('../i18n.cjs');
module.exports = {
data: new SlashCommandBuilder()
.setName('ping')
.setDescription(i18n.__('ping.description')),
async execute(interaction) {
try {
const userLocale = interaction.user.locale || 'en';
console.log(User's Discord locale: ${userLocale}); // Logging the detected locale
i18n.setLocale(userLocale);
console.log(i18n locale after setting: ${i18n.getLocale()}); // Logging the set locale in i18n
// Time the interaction was created
const sentAt = interaction.createdTimestamp;
// Reply to the interaction
const reply = await interaction.reply({ content: 'Pinging...', fetchReply: true });
// Time the reply was created
const repliedAt = reply.createdTimestamp;
// Calculate the latency
const latency = repliedAt - sentAt;
// Edit the reply to show the latency using translation
await interaction.editReply(i18n.__('ping.response', { latency: ${latency} }));
} catch (err) {
console.error(err);
await interaction.editReply({content: "Something went wrong"});
}
},
};

- 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!User object doesn't has locale. You can access it from an interaction
Yup, that was it. thank you.
I'm assuming the only way to locale the description of a command is storing user's locale in a database? or am i missing some trick here
thank you
