ExpectedValidationError from EmbedBuilder().setTimestamp(variable)

(using typescript) while creating an embed in an interaction handler and setting the Timestamp on it, the following Error(s) are thrown

CombinedError (3)
  Received one or more errors

  1 ExpectedValidationError > s.literal(V)
  |   Expected values to be equals
  | 
  |   Expected:
  |   | null
  | 
  |   Received:
  |   | '1695404406973'

  2 ValidationError > s.number
  |   Expected a number primitive
  | 
  |   Received:
  |   | '1695404406973'

  3 ValidationError > s.date
  |   Expected a Date

the code throwing is equivalent to the following:

export class someClass {
    public createdAt!: number
}

//...

const embed = new EmbedBuilder()
            //set a bold title
            .setTitle('**EmbedTitle**')
            .setDescription('SomeLongText')
            .setFooter({ text: 'FooterText' })
            .setTimestamp(classInstance.createdAt)

export class someClass {
    public createdAt!: number
}

//...

const embed = new EmbedBuilder()
            //set a bold title
            .setTitle('**EmbedTitle**')
            .setDescription('SomeLongText')
            .setFooter({ text: 'FooterText' })
            .setTimestamp(classInstance.createdAt)

the indirectly depended version of shapeshift throwing the error seems to be @sapphire/[email protected]

classInstance.createdAt is a string

Favna•15mo ago

I know you didnt type it as such but runtime says otherwise

MaxOP•15mo ago

man i hate js sometimes yup, explicitly casting my number to a number makes sure it's a number .setTimestamp(Number(classInstance.createdAt)) i assume the single quotes indicate that it's a string in that exception?

yeah also the fact that it says it expected a number but it wasn't, there was only one other thing that could've been formatted like that
