Registering Slash Commands

[nimimon]

I'm trying to use this (https://discordjs.guide/interactions/registering-slash-commands.html#guild-commands)
for registering slash commands. here is the piece of code i am trying to incorporate:

const { REST } = require('@discordjs/rest');
const { Routes } = require('discord-api-types/v9');
const { token } = require('./config.json');
const fs = require('fs');

const commands = [];
const commandFiles = fs.readdirSync('./commands').filter(file => file.endsWith('.js'));

// Place your client and guild ids here
const clientId = '123456789012345678';
const guildId = '876543210987654321';

for (const file of commandFiles) {
	const command = require(`./commands/${file}`);
	commands.push(command.data.toJSON());
}

const rest = new REST({ version: '9' }).setToken(token);

(async () => {
	try {
		console.log('Started refreshing application (/) commands.');

		await rest.put(
			Routes.applicationGuildCommands(clientId, guildId),
			{ body: commands },
		);

		console.log('Successfully reloaded application (/) commands.');
	} catch (error) {
		console.error(error);
	}
})();

(please let me know if this isnt even the right piece of code i should be starting off with)

since the currency system uses models instead of commands (sorry if this sounds completely stupid, im new to coding), i keep on getting errors about how it cant find ./commands, which makes sense since it doesnt exist. so how do i add this piece of code to function properly? or what piece of code should i use instead so i can get it work with the models folder? (also, i am trying to add this to the app.js file)

The deploy-commands.js script is to be used to deploy your slash commands and is to be a separate file that you use only when you want to deploy slash commands. You can read more about registering them here.

The currency system uses models, which basically define the structure of your database. This system does use slash commands as you can see here:

guide/code-samples/sequelize/currency/13/app.js

	client.on('interactionCreate', async interaction => {
	if (!interaction.isCommand()) return;
	const { commandName } = interaction;
	if (commandName === 'balance') {
	const target = interaction.options.getUser('user') || interaction.user;
	return interaction.reply(`${target.tag} has ${currency.getBalance(target.id)}💰`);
	} else if (commandName === 'inventory') {
	const target = interaction.options.getUser('user') || interaction.user;
	const user = await Users.findOne({ where: { user_id: target.id } });
	const items = await user.getItems();
	if (!items.length) return interaction.reply(`${target.tag} has nothing!`);
	return interaction.reply(`${target.tag} currently has ${items.map(t => `${t.amount} ${t.item.name}`).join(', ')}`);
	} else if (commandName === 'transfer') {
	const currentAmount = currency.getBalance(interaction.user.id);
	const transferAmount = interaction.options.getInteger('amount');
	const transferTarget = interaction.options.getUser('user');
	if (transferAmount > currentAmount) return interaction.reply(`Sorry ${interaction.user} you don't have that much.`);
	if (transferAmount <= 0) return interaction.reply(`Please enter an amount greater than zero, ${interaction.user}`);
	currency.add(interaction.user.id, -transferAmount);
	currency.add(transferTarget.id, transferAmount);
	return interaction.reply(`Successfully transferred ${transferAmount}💰 to ${transferTarget.tag}. Your current balance is ${currency.getBalance(interaction.user.id)}💰`);
	} else if (commandName === 'buy') {
	const itemName = interaction.options.getString('item');
	const item = await CurrencyShop.findOne({ where: { name: { [Op.like]: itemName } } });
	if (!item) return interaction.reply('That item doesn\'t exist.');
	if (item.cost > currency.getBalance(interaction.user.id)) {
	return interaction.reply(`You don't have enough currency, ${interaction.user}`);
	}
	const user = await Users.findOne({ where: { user_id: interaction.user.id } });
	currency.add(interaction.user.id, -item.cost);
	await user.addItem(item);
	interaction.reply(`You've bought a ${item.name}`);
	} else if (commandName === 'shop') {
	const items = await CurrencyShop.findAll();
	return interaction.reply(Formatters.codeBlock(items.map(i => `${i.name}: ${i.cost}💰`).join('\n')));
	} else if (commandName === 'leaderboard') {
	return interaction.reply(
	Formatters.codeBlock(
	currency.sort((a, b) => b.balance - a.balance)
	.filter(user => client.users.cache.has(user.user_id))
	.first(10)
	.map((user, position) => `(${position + 1}) ${(client.users.cache.get(user.user_id).tag)}: ${user.balance}💰`)
	.join('\n'),
	),
	);
	}

I'd recommend you to either register them manually or use the SlashCommandBuilder from the @discordjs/builders package and refer to these examples.

I'll look into adding deploy scripts for all subsections of the guide later.
