无法部署我的斜杠命令 Discord.js

Question

• EDIT: turns out i was still on node 16.4.4 and this was the issue, slash commands require node 16.6 or higher. This happened because i switched machines and had my node_modules folder added to the git i was using.

Running my guild.commands.js or deploy-commands.js yields this error:

node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:936
  throw err;
  ^

Error: Cannot find module '../common'

  ]
}

I have set the scope to application.commands and bot and i have given the bot all the permissions. My first slash command is working properly but i simply cannot add new ones. I have tried node 16.4 and 17.4 and tried reinstalling everything from node to discord.js. It is always the same error with the common module. I am following this tutorial: https://discordjs.guide/creating-your-bot/command-handling.html#individual-command-files

this is deploy-commands.js :

const fs = require('fs');
const { REST } = require('@discordjs/rest');
const { Routes } = require('discord-api-types/v9');
const { clientId, guildId, token } = require('./config.json');
const rest = new REST({ version: '9' }).setToken(token);

const commands = [];
const commandFiles = fs.readdirSync('./commands').filter(file => file.endsWith('.js'));

for (const file of commandFiles) {
    const command = require(`./commands/${file}`);
    commands.push(command.data.toJSON());
}

rest.put(Routes.applicationGuildCommands(clientId, guildId), { body: commands })
    .then(() => console.log('Successfully registered application commands.'))
    .catch(console.error);

my deploy script is pretty much the same and works just fine. From the error message Cannot find module '../common' it looks like a require error.

I don't see a common require in you code example. Try finding that require and check your path with variations such as './common' or 'common' (if you don't know where it is you can run a project search with Ctrl + Maj + F)

It could be a file or a folder that was moved without refactoring.

I hope that's useful.
