Unable to import a component from a file to another

Hi, i'm trying to get a select menu exported in a file in order to use it in another one by importing it but i get this error (i tried with buttons and i got the same thing): When the function is in the same file i don't get the issue

TypeError: (0 , modulesMenu_1.buildSelectMenu) is not a function
    at Object.execute (\bot\dist\modules\setup\commands\module.js:52:68)
    at handleCommandInteraction (\bot\dist\modules\core\events\client\interactionCreate.js:36:27)
    at process.processTicksAndRejections (node:internal/process/task_queues:95:5)
    at async Object.execute (\bot\dist\modules\core\events\client\interactionCreate.js:17:13)

TypeError: (0 , modulesMenu_1.buildSelectMenu) is not a function
    at Object.execute (\bot\dist\modules\setup\commands\module.js:52:68)
    at handleCommandInteraction (\bot\dist\modules\core\events\client\interactionCreate.js:36:27)
    at process.processTicksAndRejections (node:internal/process/task_queues:95:5)
    at async Object.execute (\bot\dist\modules\core\events\client\interactionCreate.js:17:13)

The func is :

export const buildSelectMenu = (guildSettings: IGuild) => {
  const selectMenu = new StringSelectMenuBuilder()
    .setCustomId("modulesMenu")
    .setPlaceholder(value)
    .addOptions(/*options*/);

  const row = new ActionRowBuilder<StringSelectMenuBuilder>().addComponents(selectMenu);
  return row;
};

export const buildSelectMenu = (guildSettings: IGuild) => {
  const selectMenu = new StringSelectMenuBuilder()
    .setCustomId("modulesMenu")
    .setPlaceholder(value)
    .addOptions(/*options*/);

  const row = new ActionRowBuilder<StringSelectMenuBuilder>().addComponents(selectMenu);
  return row;
};

and i call it like this with the good import:

const selectMenu = buildSelectMenu(guildSettings);

const selectMenu = buildSelectMenu(guildSettings);

When the function buildSelectMenu is in the same file, i dont get this error I'm using Typescript 5.1.6 and djs v14.11.0

I'm not entirely sure if it's an issue with the build func from djs or just something wrong in my code, sorry if it's the latter

#other-js-ts for non djs related issues (or #useful-servers)

Adan_eaOP•15mo ago

So definitly not djs related ?

Parogo_72•15mo ago

exporting a function in ts doesnt seem djs to me though

Adan_eaOP•15mo ago

yeah i agree with you, but i get the issue with this type of export only, whenever i use a builder and export it i get the error

Parogo_72•15mo ago

but you arent exporting a builder, you are exporting a function (that returns a builder which is irrelevant)

Adan_eaOP•15mo ago

I'll move this to #other-js-ts, sorry !close
