I recently added a command handler into my discord bot. All the commands that had Embeds came up with the error "Discord.MessageEmbed is not a constructor".

code:

const Discord = require('discord.js');

module.exports = {
    name: 'embed',
    description: "Embeds!",
    execute(client, message, args, Discord){
        const embed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
        

        .setColor('#3498DB')
        .setAuthor("Afghar | Test", "https://i.imgur.com/jF4xyap.png")
        .addFields(
            { name: "Test", value: "- `test`", inline: true },
            { name: "Test", value: "- `test`", inline: true },
            { name: '‎', value: '‎' },

        )

        .addField("\u200b", "\u200b")
        .setTimestamp()
        .setFooter("test", "http://i.imgur.com/w1vhFSR.png");

        message.channel.send({ embeds: [embed] });
    }
}

full error:

CodePudding user response：

npm uninstall -S discord.js

and then

npm i discord.js --save

CodePudding user response：

Discord.MessageEmbed assumes you imported the discord.js module as a variable named Discord. Your execute method seems to have a different Discord variable which is not the actual discord.js module:

    execute(client, message, args, Discord){

This overrides your original Discord variable which is the discord.js module:

const Discord = require('discord.js');

You should see what that new Discord variable in the execute method does, and delete it if it isn't needed, or rename it.
