Example: clear command discordJS
client.on('message', (message) => {
if (!message.content.startsWith(prefix) || message.author.bot) return;
const args = message.content
.toLowerCase()
.slice(prefix.length)
.trim()
.split(/\s+/);
const [command, input] = args;
if (command === 'clear' || command === 'c') {
if (!message.member.hasPermission('MANAGE_MESSAGES')) {
return message.channel
.send(
"You cant use this command since you're missing `manage_messages` perm",

}
if (isNaN(input)) {
return message.channel
.send('enter the amount of messages that you would like to clear')
.then((sent) => {
setTimeout(() => {

}
if (Number(input) < 0) {
return message.channel
.send('enter a positive number')
.then((sent) => {
setTimeout(() => {
sent.delete();
}, 2500);
});
}
// add an extra to delete the current message too
const amount = Number(input) > 100
? 101
: Number(input) + 1;
message.channel.bulkDelete(amount, true)
.then((_message) => {
message.channel
// do you want to include the current message here?
// if not it should be ${_message.size - 1}

setTimeout(() => {
sent.delete();
