Command Options

Options in Discord commands are required to have a description. Additionally, for all options, we can set whether they are required and include a function to transform their value.

Option Types

The possible types of options in a command are as follows:

Text

import { Options, createStringOption, Command } from 'seyfert';
 
@Options({
    normal: createStringOption({
        description: '',
    }),
 
    /// Fixed choices
    choices: createStringOption({
        description: '',
        choices: [
            { name: 'The best library', value: 'seyfert' },
            { name: 'An odd stuff', value: 'meowdb' },
        ] as const,
    }),
 
    /// Autocomplete
    autocomplete: createStringOption({
        description: '',
        autocomplete: (interaction) => {
            // logic here
 
            const select = ['bugs', 'actions', 'random'];
            const focus = interaction.getInput();
            return interaction.respond(
                select
                    .filter((ch) => ch.includes(focus))
                    .map((ch) => ({ name: ch, value: ch }))
            );
        },
    }),
 
    /// Character limits
    limitLength: createStringOption({
        description: '',
        max_length: 500,
        min_length: 200,
    }),
})
class Ping extends Command {}

import { Options, createStringOption, Command, CommandContext } from 'seyfert';
 
const options = {
    /// Fixed choices
    best: createStringOption({
        description: '',
        choices: [
            { name: 'The best library', value: 'seyfert' },
            { name: 'An odd stuff', value: 'meowdb' },
        ] as const,
    }),
};
 
@Options(options)

                    .map((ch) => ({ name: ch, value: parseInt(ch) }))
            );
        }
    }),
 
    /// Value limits
    limitValue: createIntegerOption({
