Log all events into server channel

Hey! I'm trying to write a simple script that will log events into a server channel. Seems simple...but it's just not working for me. Anyone do something like this?

const logChannelId = '1024461076689080370';

const logger = function(interaction){
    const logChannel = client.channels.cache.get(logChannelId);
    if (!logChannel) {
      console.error('Log channel not found!');
      return;
    }
  
    const eventName = interaction.type === 'APPLICATION_COMMAND' ? 'interactionCreate' : interaction.eventNames[0];
    let content = `Event: ${eventName}`;
  
    // console.log(content);

    logChannel.send(content)
      .catch(error => console.error('Error sending log message:', error));
};

const eventNames = Object.keys(Events);

for(let i=0;i<eventNames.length;i++) {
    client.on(eventNames[i],(interaction)=>{logger(interaction);});
}

const logChannelId = '1024461076689080370';

const logger = function(interaction){
    const logChannel = client.channels.cache.get(logChannelId);
    if (!logChannel) {
      console.error('Log channel not found!');
      return;
    }
  
    const eventName = interaction.type === 'APPLICATION_COMMAND' ? 'interactionCreate' : interaction.eventNames[0];
    let content = `Event: ${eventName}`;
  
    // console.log(content);

    logChannel.send(content)
      .catch(error => console.error('Error sending log message:', error));
};

const eventNames = Object.keys(Events);

for(let i=0;i<eventNames.length;i++) {
    client.on(eventNames[i],(interaction)=>{logger(interaction);});
}

there's no eventNames property in interaction, not sure where you got that from you could just pass the event name as a parameter in your logger to simplify things

Thanks! I’ll change that when I’m back at my pc later. Follow up: will this potentially create an infinite loop where an event trigger this to post in a channel which itself triggers an event?
