Extending

this guide assumes that you are already using the basic-listeners bot

Extending is often useful to add new types to properties

//extensions/command.ts
import { NaticoCommand } from '../deps.ts';
import { BotClient } from '../mod.ts';
export class botCommand extends NaticoCommand {
    //Overwriting the old NaticoClient that was here with your custom one
    declare client: BotClient;
}

Using your custom command#

After extending NaticoCommand you need to import it to your commands

Make sure to import the new extension

If you dont import it the types wont work

import { botCommand } from '../extensions/command.ts';
export default class listeners extends botCommand {
    constructor() {
        super('listeners', {
            name: 'listeners',
            aliases: ['listeners'],
            description: 'View the amount of listeners the bot has loaded',
        });
    }
    exec(message: discordenoMessage) {
        //Without extending this would have caused a type error
        message.reply(`Pong ${this.client.listenerHandler.modules.size} listeners`);
    }
}
