Extending the config file

About types

This only works as expected in .ts files, you will not see intellisense in .js files.

Likewise, only if you have specified the “seyfert.config.(ts|mts|cts)” path in “include” in your tsconfig.json

You might have a configuration as such:

import { config } from "seyfert";

export default config.bot({
  locations: {
    base: "dist",
    commands: "commands",
  },
  token: process.env.TOKEN!,
});

For instance, when adding some properties.

declare module 'seyfert' {
    interface ExtendedRC {
        prefix: string;
        // even more properties
    }
}

You will notice a type error in your seyfert.config.ts

If you did not see this error, maybe you missed a step.

Or you already had the prefix property on it

Property 'prefix' is missing in type '{ locations: ...

GREAT! So… how do I get the property?

As simple as:

const rc = await client.getRC();

console.log(rc.prefix);

What about locations?

About locations

Seyfert does NOT handle custom locations, that’s your responsability. However, you may extend it.

declare module 'seyfert' {
    interface ExtendedRCLocations {
        music: string;
    }
}

GREAT! So…

const rc = await client.getRC();

console.log(rc.locations.music);

The finished product would be something like this:

import { config } from "seyfert";

export default config.bot({
  locations: {
    base: "dist",
    commands: "commands",
    music: "lavalink", // dist/lavalink
  },
  token: process.env.TOKEN!,
  prefix: "s!",
});
