discord.js Guide

Imagine a guide... that explores the many possibilities for your discord.js bot.

you shall add this code:

client.user.setActivity({
        type: ActivityType.Watching,
        name: 'for /help',
    });

client.user.setActivity({
        type: ActivityType.Watching,
        name: 'for /help',
    });

Also, don't forget to import the

ActivityType

ActivityType

class from the discord.js lib e. g.

const { Client, IntentsBitField, EmbedBuilder, ActivityType, ClientUser, messageLink, Embed } = require('discord.js');

const { Client, IntentsBitField, EmbedBuilder, ActivityType, ClientUser, messageLink, Embed } = require('discord.js');

you can modify the type to ActivityType.Watching to ActivityType.Playing, ActivityType.Listening or ActivityType.Streaming. but if you change to streaming, dont forget to add an url to the stream/video/whatever and the name field, to whatever you want. and I think, that's it. you may also want to check out this:

Please

PhonedLeek25•7mo ago

make sure to include this in your requires('discord.js') part

PhonedLeek25•7mo ago

client.on("ready", () =>
    {
        
        console.log("Ready!")
        client.user.setActivity('Netflix', { type: ActivityType.Watching });
    });

client.on("ready", () =>
    {
        
        console.log("Ready!")
        client.user.setActivity('Netflix', { type: ActivityType.Watching });
    });

careful, if you already have another client.on part, don't have two! jsut take this line of code client.user.setActivity('Netflix', { type: ActivityType.Watching }); and add it to that existing function

You can also set your activities in the presence object of the options object you use when creating your Client instance
