Discord.js - 如何编辑 message.embed() 语句？

Question

I am making a ping command - It is very simple to code, but I haven't got the slightest idea how to edit the embed I'm using. Here is my code - I'm using a command handler explaining the exports.run statement.

const Discord = require('discord.js')

exports.run = (bot, message, args) => {  
const pingUpdate = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
.setColor('#0099ff')
.setDescription('pinging...')
message.channel.send(pingUpdate);
}

exports.help = {
  name: 'ping'
}

I need to edit the ping update embed to make the .description edit to perform this (simple ping calculation)

message.channel.send('pinging...').then((m) => m.edit(`${m.createdTimestamp - message.createdTimestamp}ms`))

This would make the description change from 'pinging...' to ' exampleping ms'

Thank you in advance

Answer 1

You going right way. But to .setDescription you need create new Embed constructor and add description.

message.channel.send('pinging...').then(msg => {
    let embed = new Discord.MessageEmbed() //For discord v11 Change to new Discord.RichEmbed()
        .setDescription(`${msg.createdTimestamp - message.createdTimestamp}`)
    msg.edit(embed)
})

also, instead of doing msg.createTimeStamp - message.createdTimestamp you could also do bot.ping.toFixed(2)

This should work (dont have time to test rn)

    const Embed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
        .setDescription(":one:")

    const newEmbed = new Discord.MessageEmbed()
        .setDescription(":two:")

    // Edit Part Below
    var Msg = await message.channel.send(Embed); // sends message
    Msg.edit(newEmbed) // edits message with newembed

Edit: realized that im using a older version of discord.js updated to make it work with newer version

Solution seems outdated again, now you should edit embed in message using

Message#edit({embeds:[MessageEmbed#]})

For example:

const oldEmbed = new MessageEmbed();
const messageHandle = await textChannel.send({embeds: [oldEmbed]});
const newEmbed = new MessageEmbed();
messageHandle.edit({embeds:[newEmbed]});
