How to add an ActivityType or an Activity to your bot in javascript discordjs version 14?-CodePudding

I want to know how to set my activity status for my bot.

Like "Watching youtube.com"

Or "playing a game."

I've tried following the discord api document but it does not tell me how.

CodePudding user response：

May I ask what version of Discord.JS you are using?

v12:

client.user.setActivity("you", {type: "WATCHING"});

v14:

In v14, you will need to use ActivityType, make sure to add "ActivityType" before require("discord.js"); like this

const { Client, GatewayIntentBits, ActivityType } = require('discord.js');

then this is the code:

client.user.setPresence({ activities: [{ name: `discord.js v14`, type: ActivityType.Watching }], status: 'dnd', });

heres a list of the activity types:

ActivityType.Competing  
ActivityType.Listening  
ActivityType.Playing    
ActivityType.Streaming  
ActivityType.Watching

CodePudding user response：

To specify your activity type or set an activity type in discordjs version 14 you can do it by simply writing.

First you need to add const

{ Client, GatewayIntentBits, ActivityType, Guild } = require('discord.js');

And then you can set your activity type as the following:

client.user.setActivity('Message goes here', { type: ActivityType.Streaming});

There are 6 different types.

Playing | 0
Streaming | 1
Listening | 2
Watching | 3
Custom | 4
Competing | 5

For example if you would like to set your bots status to playing a game you would do it as following:

client.user.setActivity('game', { type: ActivityType.Playing});
