Is there a way to save deleted messages and use them in transcript?

const fs = require('fs');
const path = require('path');

async function generateTranscript(channel) {
    const messages = await channel.messages.fetch({ limit: 100 });
    const sortedMessages = messages.sort((a, b) => a.createdTimestamp - b.createdTimestamp);
    const transcript = sortedMessages.map(msg => {
        const date = new Date(msg.createdTimestamp);
        const moscowTime = date.toLocaleString('ru-RU', { timeZone: 'Europe/Moscow' });
        return `*${moscowTime}* - **${msg.author.tag}**: ${msg.content}`;
    }).join('\n---\n');
    const fileName = `${channel.name}-${channel.topic.match(/<@(\d+)>/)[1]}.txt`;
    const filePath = path.join(__dirname, '../transcripts', fileName);

    fs.writeFileSync(filePath, transcript);
    return filePath;
}

module.exports = { generateTranscript };

const fs = require('fs');
const path = require('path');

async function generateTranscript(channel) {
    const messages = await channel.messages.fetch({ limit: 100 });
    const sortedMessages = messages.sort((a, b) => a.createdTimestamp - b.createdTimestamp);
    const transcript = sortedMessages.map(msg => {
        const date = new Date(msg.createdTimestamp);
        const moscowTime = date.toLocaleString('ru-RU', { timeZone: 'Europe/Moscow' });
        return `*${moscowTime}* - **${msg.author.tag}**: ${msg.content}`;
    }).join('\n---\n');
    const fileName = `${channel.name}-${channel.topic.match(/<@(\d+)>/)[1]}.txt`;
    const filePath = path.join(__dirname, '../transcripts', fileName);

    fs.writeFileSync(filePath, transcript);
    return filePath;
}

module.exports = { generateTranscript };

I want to make it like this, but i`m not sure if its the best way

client.on('messageDelete', message => {
    deletedMessages.push({
        content: message.content,
        author: message.author.tag,
        createdTimestamp: message.createdTimestamp,
        deletedTimestamp: Date.now()
    });
});

client.on('messageDelete', message => {
    deletedMessages.push({
        content: message.content,
        author: message.author.tag,
        createdTimestamp: message.createdTimestamp,
        deletedTimestamp: Date.now()
    });
});

and store them in some kind of array like

const deletedMessages = [];

const deletedMessages = [];

with what part of djs do you need help for this? this sounds more like a file saving question

1OP•3mo ago

Because I`ll send the file as attacment into logs like this

Amgelo•3mo ago

and you want to know how to send a file?

1OP•3mo ago

no, I want to know how to store deleted messages from the ticket to then send them in transcript

Amgelo•3mo ago

djs doesn't handle storage or transcript management that part is up to you djs only manages the "discord communication" part

1OP•3mo ago

damn aight then

Amgelo•3mo ago

you can ask in #other-js-ts if you have any issue with your setup but here it's only for djs questions
