help with bot
I am trying to code my bot so that when a member of my sever pickes a role they get added to a specific thread channel. For example if they pick the English role they get add to all of the English threads, if they pick the Spanish role they get added to all of the Spanish roles, etc. I am having trouble figuring out the code to do this. I am new to coding so I am having a hard time understanding some of the terminology used on the discord.js website when I tried to do this on my own. If anyone could possibly lead me in the right direction I would really appreciate it. If someone could also take a look at my code and see if what I have is in the right direction please. So far this is what I got for my code:
const Discord = require('discord.js');
const client = new Discord.Client();
client.on('ready', () => {
console.log('Logged in as ${client.user.tag}!');
// Get the thread channel
const threadChannel = client.channels.cache.get('thread-channel-id');
// Get the member to add
const member = client.users.cache.get('member-id');
// Get the role to add
const role = client.guilds.cache.get('guild-id').roles.cache.get('role-id');
// Add the member to the thread with the role
threadChannel.addMember(member, role).then(() => {
console.log('Member added to thread with role!');
}).catch(err => {
console.log('Error adding member to thread:', err);
});
});
client.login('bot-token');

- What's your exact discord.js
npm list discord.js and node node -v version?

You already did it with ready
YOu need to do one for the role add
so how would that look?
You need to provide intents...
sorry this is my first time coding so I am super confused
what is that? and how do I do that?
You should read #resources for some js guides to start
d.js is not a beginner library and a bot is not a good first project, it utilizes a lot of advanced concepts
ok. I am figuring this out as I go. I have read some stuff and watched some videos but not a lot as helped
The guides in that channel are recommended by the contributors and maintainers of the library
ok
