Editing discord role permissions. (discord.js)

Question

I am trying to write a command that will let a user create a role. So far I've gotten this:

if (msg.content == '-create')
{
    msg.guild.createRole({name:"new role", color: "00FFFF", mentionable: false});
}

I am trying to have it so it gives the role the admin perm. This is of course assuming that the bot also has admin perm.

Answer 1

Assuming that you want to create a role with an admin perm, I suggest you consult the discord.js docs .

When you go to create a role, a RoleData object is required. You already have that, but you will need to add in an array with the permissions you want with the key permissions .

In that array all the permissions for the role must be listed. A list of all the permission flags is here .

So, for example if I wanted to create a role with the ability to mention everyone (assuming people are not given that permission by default), I would use: <Message>.guild.createRole( {name:"Mentioners", color: "#ff0000", permissions:["MENTION_EVERYONE"] } );

I hope this helped you with your problem!
